Comment on AMD say the Steam Machine is "on track" for an early 2026 release

I am leaning to the framework over self built because I like the power efficiency and want to support a company that I believe in. Also I refuse to give NVIDIA any money even if its indirectly by purchasing a used gpu.

Just remember the framework doesn’t have a pcie slot long enough for a graphics upgrade down the road, it’s only 4.0x4

It’s not a particular support worthy company IMO theregister.com/…/framework_linux_controversy/

If you want the devices for technical reasons, sure, but from moral standpoint they aren’t better than the next tech company.

AMD and Intel offer quite nice GPUs.
I recently purchased a Radeon RX 9060 XT with 16 GB RAM. It does the job.
