AMD Radeon RX

The article does not state whether the RX 7600 XT in the GODY can be swapped or upgraded later. It does state the mini PC is compact (roughly 200 x 193 x 80mm) and includes a dedicated Radeon RX 7600 XT with 16GB GDDR6, but it gives no GPU power or size limits for upgrades. Answered

Valve's Steam Machine runs on a custom AMD Zen 4 CPU with 6 cores, 12 threads, and a 30W TDP. Attached are integrated custom AMD RDNA 3 graphics, with 8GB of VRAM and 28 compute units. All Steam Machine models come with 16GB of DDR5 system memory, and the introductory models start with a 512GB SSD (upgradeable to 2TB for those with deeper pockets). Circling back to the custom graphics, testing by our friends at Tom's Hardware revealed that it fails to pull ahead of the AMD Radeon RX 7600 discrete GPU while coming out just ahead of the AMD Radeon RX 6600. How does that performance compare to th

The article reports the modded RTX 4080M drew about 100W in games, which is below the laptop spec of 110W, and notes that makes it more of a curiosity but potentially suitable for a tiny compact build. At that 100W draw the card generally trailed a 220W Radeon RX 9070 GRE in most games, implying reduced sustained performance compared with higher-power desktop cards; the piece does not provide specific thermal throttling measurements or temperatures.

Yes and no. The article says the modded RTX 4080M uses the same AD104 silicon as the desktop RTX 4070 but has more cores paired with slower clock speeds and reduced memory bandwidth, and in tests it ran generally slower than a 220W Radeon RX 9070 GRE while drawing only about 100W. Given those core/clock/memory and power differences, the RTX 4080M should not be expected to match desktop RTX 4070 performance. Answered
