I bought myself a #minisforum #um780xtx which is #nuc sized #amd ryzen 7 7840hs based system to make my own #steammachine for our parents room. I'm running #bazzite on it and it's amazing. I was just playing spider-man and sonic on the couch.

Cost about the same as an #XBoxSeriesX but I know which one I'd rather. I don't know why #valve hasn't taken another stab at an official steam machine again?

@gnuplusmatt it's the anti-cheat software that blocks the consumer grade steam machine. Even on a handheld it's probably fine, but not for a full-blown Xbox-PS competitor.

@herrorange I feel like after the success of the steamdeck if valve actually decided to go all in on a steam machine console and not be valve about it and promote it (not just throw it over the fence like they do), developers would get on board, anticheat and all.

For me, I don't play a lot of multilayer (and if I did it wouldn't be on the couch), so this little box is a great solution.
