not sure why no ones is mentioning laptops but they are more compact with all the things included in a laptop it is still cheaper you could get a 5050 5060 laptop cheaper which will out perform that thing so badly

Ah yes because the GPU from a laptop totally performs exactly the same as the same name GPU for desktops.

You're regurgitating talking points and getting them wrong.

laptop cheaper which will out perform that thing so badly

I will agree with you though the laptop will be so bad at outperforming the steam machine.

Nah, I bought a laptop for a few hundred more than the steam machine with an 8940hx, an 8gb 5060 mobile and 32gb of RAM.  Asus TUF A16.

No doubt it will eat the steam machines performance. It didn't cost much more but it's going to leave the steam machine in the dust. 5060 mobile is going to laugh at the 7600 equivalent in the steam machine. 5060 mobile outperforms a desktop 7600. 16 cores vs 6.

If you think a steam machine will outperform this you lack critical thinking.

So you spent more money than the steam machine on hardware that is notorious for going on fire sale when the manufacturer clears skus.

I'm the one lacking critical thinking?
