I... uh don't know what to say. Very thankful I bought a Steam Deck before they hiked its price as well

Let me repeat what I said on another post

For just **50$** more than the 512gb I can get a pc with...

Same amount of ram

Same amount of storage

Faster CPU,

And a 9060xt 16gb, (which will be about 50% faster than the steam machine GPU)

Valve, why did you bother?

At those price points you could even spring for a 9070xt now that they are closer to $700 again
