To be honest, I expected RAM prices would push back the release date. But AMD would know more about than I would.

A week after it ships ebay will be full of “steam machine bring your own ram”
Is it upgradeable? I assumed it would be soldered in.
Maybe we’ll see, “Some soldering required,” instead 😂
They explicitly said it has user upgradeable ram. The graphics card is soldered on though. Its basically gaming laptop hardware.
It is, using SODIMMs (Laptop form factor)
Cool, I tried to find the info, but obviously didn’t find that detail. It makes sense, all things considered
Why would it be soldered? It’s not like it’s in a laptop with space constraints.
I dunno. There’s probably plenty of examples where companies soldered RAM instead of installing SODIMM slots, even when they had space. I agree that it makes sense, but sense isn’t always a factor when a company starts crunching the production cost numbers.
Given the proclivities of Valve and their hardware so far, i woud expect the gabecube to not have soldered ram.
Considering how repairable the steam deck is, I wouldn’t be surprised if it is upgradable
