The middle one is a similar kind of configuration to my Mac studio, and if you were to put this APU in an actual build it only comes out a little cheaper so the pricing tracks.

Still prefer V. I think VII actually looks interesting to me but until they iron out the early issues I’ll hold off.
I do think that as we get more and more ‘all on one die’ solutions that are good enough, coupled with the AI upscaling technologies, everyone other than the extreme enthusiast or enterprise users won’t need dgpus any more in a few years anyway.
Too bad many of the people in my generation who grew up with GTA games stopped caring since we’re all middle aged now anyway.
Also the impact of a new rockstar game today is very different from what it was in the 2000s. There’s so much to play now that waiting a year isn’t that big a deal when you have a giant library of Steam games.
I mean these comparisons are always a bit redundant to me. I get multiplatform games like that on steam, I use switch for Nintendo games and other casual stuff that I prefer to play handheld and are not super resource hogs.
The only people that this would affect are the extreme edge case where you have no PC or gaming laptop or Xbox/PS but have both a deck AND a switch 2 AND you don’t care about the price difference and you really want the best handheld performance.
