Valve open silicon when?
I believe in you Gabe.
- jrepinc 4mo agoYeah hat would be awesome. Some RISC-V processor or something like that. A man can dream :)
- amatecha 4mo agoThe MNT Station, currently in development, could very well be a fully-OSHW "Steam Machine": https://www.crowdsupply.com/mnt-research/mnt-station https://www.crowdsupply.com/mnt-research/mnt-station
- vaylian 4mo agoWhat about the graphics processing capability? I see there are some modules with a GPU on them. Are they good enough to run 3D games that were released in the last 5 years? I'm also happy with older games. I just don't know how powerful these GPUs are.
- amatecha 4mo agoDepends which CPU module you get, but yeah it's not nearly as powerful as the new Steam Machine, surely. I mean, it's a step in the right direction and you can see people are playing many recent-ish (or lower-GPU-intensity) games, as discussed in this thread: https://community.mnt.re/t/mnt-reform-gaming-thread/608/110 https://community.mnt.re/t/mnt-reform-gaming-thread/608/110
- Kirby64 4mo agoDoesn't solve any problems that are causing the price crunches. The problem is largely RAM and NAND pricing, which no small shop is going to spin up a fab to create. Making your own SoC would do little to alleviate the price issues.
