It is a bigger, don’t have the Steam Controller dongle integrated, and you need to manually install SteamOS on it.

But you get a machine that can be upgraded way more easily than the Steam Machine, and a better GPU from the start.

    8GB is plenty for 1080p. Especially since you’re not actually rendering at 1080p. And it’s RDNA4 vs 3, so it’s a more powerful chip in general.

    B650 is fine but I didn’t look too closely at the specific mono model. 350W PSU is what stood out to me as a major issue since pcpp lists ~307W power usage. 350 isn’t nearly enough.

      Yea you get a single spike in power draw and that PC crashes. No way that shitty PSU can handle peak power draw if both CPU and GPU kick in at once
