THE ♥♥♥♥ IS THIS....I mean really? My computer cost 700 dollars, and now it is being shown up by something the size of a brick? that is messed up...I mean currently I am just wondering which will prevail: nintendo switch, or PACH Z....Either way, one thing is for sure: chances are I am not getting either, cause if it is better then my pc, and is small enough to play at a bustop...I am guessing 2 grand or somethig....but mobile AAA gaming...is still something that is coming, and very exciting. But I wonder...How many of you would buy this, if it were 2 grand?

It could never happen, at least not in our time. Perhaps in a decade maybe. But it would just be too expensive to mass produce. Very few could afford it and even less would acually buy it.

[Jonno.exe]

Ram is Low-Medium range
CPU is AMD...enough said
Why would you want a touch screen monitor? Only keyboard & mouse or VR for gaming plz

Finally, only 5hrs gaming life? Please you need more if you wanna be classified as a PC Gamer

Therefore, your PC survives as this 'thing' is not for gamers

Idk about that...the nintendo switch has been getting MAJOR support, and everyone has been saying they wil buy it....Even if the PACH Z doesn't take the throne, its becoming a popular concept. I mean ♥♥♥♥, I have seen people waste all there money on dumber gaming stuff then this (like spending thousands on skylanders...jsut sad)

If its true that the switch is going to be using the nvidea tegra X2 processor then it should have similar specs to the ones this PACH Z thing has and it will cost around 200-250 dollars if the rumors are to be believed.

Well 5hrs of gaming life, for a mobile device that plays AAA games, is quite respectable, as my pc can only last maybe...6? maybe 5.5...not much more is the point. And what is wrong with amd cpu? that is a debatable refute to this. and why would you want a toch screen monitor? I can think of many reasons, but in any case you can probably disable it (I know you can on alot of touch screen computers) onl keyboard and mouse for pc gaming? yeah dont play dark souls 1 anytime soon.

200 TO 250???? THAT IS STUPID CHEAP...for something that challenges my pc, that was 700 dollars...I am buying the ♥♥♥♥ out of that thing xD (when I can afford it....and it releases...maybe I will start saving up for it now, so I will have the money when it releases.)

Also OP your PC must be pretty weak to lose to such low specs, even my ageing G750-JX-DB71 has much much better specs then this thing and is portable(even though it weighs 11 pounds but still).

Ok maybe not "lose" it is better in some aspects, and worse in others, I was kinda exagerating on that front. But in any case, it at least comes to par with it, and is amazing for a mobile device.

The nvidea shield products with the tegra cpu/gpu combos where only 200 dollars which featured 4GB of ram and the tegra X1 processor(I bought the portable with two GBs of ram and the tegra 4 processor, to this day there is nothing better for emulating old games, even has a built in mini hdmi port so i can hook it up to my TV and replay through my childhood nostalgia).

Hmmm, I think I have caused confusion throughout this fourm, now that I go back and think about it....I was talking about the pro version, that has 8gb of ram...I guess that explains the people who said they were low specs, and that my computer sucked if it wasn't better....I am assuming that double in ram, from 4-8, and all those other goodies, would bump up the price significantly?

No, it was 200 for four GBs over two years ago. You could still do 8 GBs for 200-250 dollars just fine.

Ok good, that is reassuring (: now I am just waiting for the future, where you can download games to your brain via certain locations, or you can buy something to download them to your brain at your house. all you would need to do to play it is close your eyes, and using the same technology that allows us to fly small objects, start the game, sending you into a holodeck gaming like trance. However this will cause problems with people not being able to pay attention to the world around them, so there will then be a implication, where if anyone not authorized by you gets into a certain range, it kicks you out of the game......*sigh* but for now, we just need to settle with what we got, and know that the futre-gen way of gaming called "neuro play" is coming fast.

[Siviks, Lost to None]

Just get the nintendo switch

[SourceUnknown]

Shut up and take my money!!

[stoneinfocus]

It's on Kickstarter? That doesn't sound terribly promising.

Exactly.
Unless you're someone straight out of Nvidia factories, no way you're gonna make a device that can play Skyrim as a size of a brick. (Nintendo Switch is larger)
