Underestimating a highly optimized, low-power device is a massive mistake, and it's a pattern gamers keep repeating.
In this video, we break down why raw teraflops and specs don't matter anymore. From the massive success of the Nintendo Switch and the Steam Deck to the recent production ramps for the Switch 2, the industry has proven that friction-free accessibility, optimization, and fun beat a bleeding-edge specs race every single time.

Let's talk about why Valve's new living room PC peak, & why the "spec-obsessed" crowd has it all wrong.
