[–] ShinkanTrain@lemmy.ml 3 points 9 months ago (1 child) Forget the RAM, don't you get CPU limited? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] sobchak@programming.dev 3 points 9 months ago Every game I've tried works fine. Including resource hungry games like Cyberpunk 2077. It's my understanding that games are typically light on the CPU because they typically also try to target consoles which don't have very good CPUs. It is noticeably slower at some (highly parallelize-able) tasks, but is fine for any game I've tried. The CPU is probably roughly equivalent to the CPU in a Steam Deck. permalink fedilink source parent
