And a SSD I guess.

Alternative question: Do you want steam to offer a console only version? Same motherboard, just no screen or battery.

      I would fight a baby penguin for a Steam Controller v2; it was (and still is - I have 2) the best controller I have ever used.

        honestly the steam controller’s killer feature for me isn’t even the touchpads – it’s the multiple-profile support. “oh, you want to connect to your PC for a bit, then reconnect to your console later? sure, just hold select during startup, I’ll remember your last 2 bluetooth connections.”

            yep! remembers up to two bluetooth connections and two usb dongles. turn it on while holding:

            • A to boot in usb mode
            • B to boot in bluetooth mode
            • X to connect a new dongle
            • Y to connect a new bluetooth profile
            • Start to use the previous dongle
            • Select to use the previous bluetooth profile

              Awesome, thanks for the info - will try it out soon. This’ll make streaming to my Steam Link much easier

      This would be a new one obviously. When it matches the steamdeck and OS perfectly it could be more streamlined.

          An RX 6600 paired with a Ryzen 5600 would blow the Deck out of the water (3-4x depending on the measurement) for a very similar cost to a mid-range Deck.

          those two parts are 330€ new for me right now.
          I’d still need:
          a Mainboard, AM4 starts at 50€
          RAM, 16GB for ~25€
          Power Supply, 20-50€
          ssd 10-30€

          starting at 435€
          Actually, that seems reasonably competetive with the 64gb version (420€), depending on the other parts you choose (I’d not want to completely cheap out on Power Supply or Storage, so give that ~20€ more each).

          I’m surprised to be honest. Nice.
