minus-squareTWeaKlinkfedilink3•2 years agoYeah I was mainly moaning about the chipset limitation being PCIe 3.0. Kind of makes me wonder if they’re planning an update in the next year or so.
minus-squareIllecorslinkfedilink4•2 years agoI don’t think a device like SteamDeck benefits from PCIe 4 speeds. Increased power consumption feels not worth it.
minus-squareTWeaKlinkfedilink1•2 years agoI don’t think there’s a significant power increase from PCIe 3 to PCIe 4. It’s just an increase in bandwidth, and SSDs aren’t high power devices either.
