Do you have a speedy new system that you’d love to show off to the world? Perhaps you’re someone who just plays casually on the home PC? Why not post your setup in here to share & compare with other members of the Steam community!

Why so ? I would definitely would buy Steam deck if i had spare money for such thing

Oh let's see, where do I begin.. okay how about that stupid aspect ratio of 16:10? Or the 1280x800 resolution that's not even a standard anywhere, and for good reason. Most content is in 16:9. They should've put a standard 720p 16:9 OLED screen.

How about the fact that some people get a loud fan and some a quiet one? What about the SSD ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥? And now I read about bubbles in the freaking screen! I'm supposed to pay $650+ USA dollars for that?

Go ahead waste your money, no one is stopping you!

wow, you seem like an entitled child who is new to computers...

1) 16:10 has long been held in computing screens as superior to 16:9. It comes with all the advantages of 16:9, but with added screen space on the vertical which statistically works *far* better for actual computer use such as documents, spreadsheets, or web-content. On a personal individual basis, one can argue that in their opinion 16:9 is still better, but factually and statistically as a whole, Computer Users and Computer Hardware Designers have always held 16:10 as the superior standard, regardless if your personal opinion differs on that. The 16:9 standard is a format pushed only by mainstream TV consumer content, not even by the movie industry (which actually dislikes 16:9). Just because its ubiquitous doesn't make it better.

2a) 1280*800... Again, you show you are quite green in PC world stuff... First, most major OS releases, including Windows (since windows 7) have not actually fully supported base 720p (1280*720). Think I am wrong? Go set windows to actual 720P and watch it immediately warn you that such low rez can and will cause issue. Fact of the matter is that no major OS has supported scaling below 768p (1360/1366*768) for well over a decade and a half. Your assertion that they should have put in a 720p screen is so wrong, windows and steam both say no as an OS level. Just not enough screen space at that rez to proper show the OS, and this is without even starting about how broken things like web-pages will be as basically everything on the market expects a base rez of 768p.

Which brings us to 2b:

2b) Why not use a 16:9 768p screen I hear you ask? Because screens at this rez are already cramped, and while 768p is just barely usable for most any modern use, for any type of browsing or basic use content the added rez for up and down vertical space offered by 800p is highly preferred by more users than not. See reason 1.

3) Why a low rez at all? Because higher rez requires more GPU, and they are trying to keep GPU Power : Screen Rez on a balanced enough scale to offer reasonable frame rates. The new ROG mini might have a nicer 1080p screen, but its rez increase vs its GPU power increase are *not* proportional. That means that between the two, the steam deck will last longer for actual usable gaming as it will have the GPU:Rez ratio that is higher. The new 1200p upgrade kit for the deck is a joke and will render it basically useless for any real gaming if trying to run native render. FSR @1200p will be a constant requirement.

Newly put together PC for web browsing, office and work from home mainly using Citrix.

CPU: Intel Core i3 12100, RM1 box cooler (current)
RAM: 16GB Corsair Vengence LP 3200 MHz CL16 (recycled from another PC)
GPU: Intel UHD 730
MB: ASRock H610M mini-ITX/AC wifi
Boot/Storage: Samsung Pro 960 1TB M.2 Nvme Gen 3 (recycled from another PC)
OS: Windows 11 Pro (will add Linux)
PSU: Fractal Anode 450W Bronze 80+ SFX (came with the case)
Case: Fractal Design Node 202 SFF

I was aiming for a low cost low power machine but got a little overboard. The case was something I'd always wanted and can recycle for another build. What I wanted was to use the Alder Lake Pentium G7400 but there was so little difference in pricing to the i3. Looking at reviews the 13100 is basically an 12100 with a mild overclock. To keep power consumption down I disabled 2 CPU cores through the BIOS settings.

Will get a third party CPU cooler as the box cooler is too audible for my liking and possibly get a Gold rated PSU for better power efficiency.

I added a discrete GPU for some gaming of older titles on my huge, relatively untouched, steam library. To me it feels a bit odd to pair an AMD card with an Intel CPU but I can get power consumption down by auto undervolt via the Radeon software and use Radeon Super Resolution on Windows. When on Linux, I use CORECTRL to lower power draw on the GPU and can set FSR with Steam Proton. However, using the open source driver I find bad artefacting on some games when running the Linux native version.

CPU: Intel Core i3 12100, RM1 box cooler (current*)
RAM: 16GB Corsair Vengence LP 3200 MHz CL16 (recycled from another PC)
GPU: ASRock RX 5500 XT Challenger 8GB GDDR6
MB: ASRock H610M mini-ITX/AC wifi
Boot/Storage: Samsung Pro 960 1TB M.2 Nvme Gen 3 (recycled from another PC)
OS: Windows 11 Pro, dual boot with Arch Linux (Plasma KDE) and Manjaro Linux (
PSU: Fractal Anode 450W Bronze 80+ SFX (came with the case)
Case: Fractal Design Node 202 Small Form Factor

* I have an unused Alpenfohn Black Ridge low profile cooler which I just gotten an LGA1700 kit for. Can swap the box fan with a Noctua 92mm x 92mm x 15mm fan for better noise.

And you seem like someone who judges people completely wrong and not only that writes a wall of vomit in a sad attempt to insult me and make yourself seem intelligent.

I DONT WANT BLACK ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ BARS!!

Is that clear enough for you? Can you hear me now? Now instead of going on a pathetic rant of aspect ratio and talking about TVs and ♥♥♥♥ there's still the fact that most games have black bars because of this stupid resolution choice.

The only thing green here is the color of valve's lube before it enters your behind. I said I don't want black bars. And now you're trying to get me to believe that windows doesn't support 720p.. got it green hole.

I just set my desktop to 720p in windows 11, so yeah it is supported. I'm going to actually call you red with PC since you make so many errors.

I also love how you have nothing to say about the SSD and fan.

Garbage!

Why so ? I would definitely would buy Steam deck if i had spare money for such thing

Absolutely nothing. It's a great device and games pretty damn well. And I'm used to 4K 120hz OLED gaming. So, yeah, people talking ♥♥♥♥ on it are mostly those who simply can't afford it.

With all the bad PR Asus is going through and being dropped by people now, I may just skip the Ally and wait for something comparable.

so im still new too PC gaming (about 5 months) and got my brothers old PC it had an i7-9700k and a GTX 1070 in it. I upgraded the GPU to a 2080ti about a month after but the PC in general is still old and most components are going to need upgraded sooner rather than later. So i figured i should just start from scratch and get a new PC so i have managed to build one online and i have come up with...

CASE: CyberpowerPC Lancool PC-008 Gaming Case
CPU: Intel® Core™ i5-13600K - 14 Core [6P @ 3.50GHz-5.10GHz / 8E @ 2.60GHz-3.90GHz] - 24MB Cache + UHD Graphics, Ultimate OC Compatible
FAN: MSI MAG Coreliquid 240R V2 240mm RGB Liquid Cooler, Extreme OC Compatible
M2SSD: 500GB WD Black SN770 M.2 NVMe PCIe SSD - 5000MB/s Read & 4000MB/s Write
M2SSD2: 2TB Kingston Fury Renegade M.2 PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD - 7300MB/s Read & 7000MB/s Write
MEMORY: 32GB (2x16GB) DDR5/5600mhz Corsair Vengeance Memory
MOTHERBOARD: MSI PRO Z790-P WIFI: ATX w/ PCIe 5.0, Wi-Fi 6E, USB 3.2 Gen 2x2
POWERSUPPLY: Corsair RM850X SHIFT 80+ Gold Fully Modular Gaming Power Supply
SOUND: ASUS Xonar AE 7.1 PCI-E Sound Card
VIDEO: GeForce® RTX 4080 16GB - Ray Tracing Technology, DX12®, VR Ready, HDMI, DP - 4 MIN. Monitor Support

and the price is around £2,450

would you guys say thats a good price for the system.
+ i could also sell the components from this current PC too offset the price. I might be able to sell all the parts for roughly £400-£500? so essentially the system would cost around £2000

I mean... You are basically spending 2.5k bucks for (at best) a minimal upgrade, and at worst a simple side-grade on CPU (in games) and a new GPU.

Just get a 4080 (or similar card) to put into the 9700k, case closed.
