A shame their "new" OLED gaming monitor is still stuck with a 150nit SDR brightness and a horrid matte coating...that's a new generation MLA OLED seriously ?

Using an unoptimized game as an example is not really useful for consumers.

Even a 4070Ti struggles in some cases with that game..and it's a portable PC with a 2020 15W SoC, you won't be smoothly running the most demanding games (and unoptimized games)...period.

>Gotham Knights is another title that did not run well

You know what ? You are right, please take a look at Star Citizen next to push your "we need an upgrade" point.

For the SD2 proponent, Valve announced that they weren't really looking at an SoC upgrade, focusing more on battery and display for the next revision...they will upgrade once RDNA3 matures (7900XTX is barely out) and that may take years

Databricks who created that open source Spark project a startup ? Come on, we've been using it for years.

Epic Games has been around since forever with their unreal Engine and Quake Unreal games etc.

This is a very wrong definition of startup, OP, change the title to privately held 'tech' companies if you want but that's just wrong

Nearly any controller works with it, it's a PC, I don't really see the point, xbox elite controller, dualsense (or the upcoming DS edge) etc.

I skipped the first SD but I really like what they did. What I'd like for the next one:

  • mini-led or OLED
  • RDNA3 APU
  • slightly improved battery life
  • Improvements to the thermal management system for reduced noise and temps (bigger fan, fluid bearing, very efficient thermal paste, vapour chamber etc.)

I don't think, knowing valve, that it's a crazy wishlist and I believe most of those points will be adressed maybe 2024 a new SD will appear who knows

It's a strong team, period.

They are strong, they have a very good goalkeeper, some of their players play in some of the best clubs, like Ziyech or Hakimi.

So don't speak of miracle or slap on the face, it's a team worthy of losing to, they didn't win by chance 5 times in a row and they have their shot at the world cup.

Now, France it's a very strong team. VERY strong but in Football, especially at that high level, anything is possible :)
