…Pirate hardware?

That was the OG way of piracy. Except the hardware was, like, rum, sugar and cannons. 🤷♂️

“Yeah, we’re gonna do this new fangled form of piracy. It’s like the old way, but without the boats and parrots and stuff. We’re just stealing stuff now.”

Pretty hard to pirate RAM. Sadly all the wam you can download is DDR3

There is the Steamdeck OLED still, Steam Machine and Steamframes on the way early 2026. Also there is enough used machines in the second hand marketplace to tide everyone else over until the AI bubble pops.

I don’t think it will pop. I think it will continue to gobble up components for the next 5 years.

I think it will pop. But oh no! Now what do we do with all these data centers equipped with endless GPU power and RAM that we are building? Oh, I know! Cloud gaming! In fact let‘s buy up even more GPUs and RAM then rent the computing power to companies Epic Games and Valve!
This is the future of mainstream gaming.

It has to eventually, right? It’s just straight up not sustainable, especially in its current form. But I do think the hype will carry things along for a little bit. No doubt things are gonna be ugly in the meantime

I big game machine that gives money to rich people isn’t going to break until there literally isn’t any more money left.
Take a look at countries with people starving in the streets while rich people live in gated compounds. Still think it “has to pop”?

I mean “eventually” yes but for the foreseeable future Trump could continue dumping your and my money into it indefinitely in the name of “national security”.

What console does 4k/240hz?? Even PS5 Pro can’t do 4k/60fps in most games, Digital Foundry does pixel counting and frame rate tests
plantfanatic@sh.itjust.works 15 hours ago
Sorry meant 4k/120c which the ps5 does natively, doesn’t need to be pro.

This was prior to the RAM rising, but Valve stated that the Steam Frame would be cheaper than the Index which was at $999 USD.
That could change now after RAM pricing, but nothing has been said yet.
