alt Hacker NewsThat’s what I want as a gamer. I want a PC that works as a console. Whether I want that for other use cases or this machine doesn’t matter. I’m happy to sandbox _everything else_, boot into a specific OS to game etc.
The thing about gaming is that it’s not acceptable to leave 5% performance on the table whereas for other uses it usually is.

Just know that it will still get cracked and cheats will exist. I suspect this is Microsoft's next "console" as they have been developing "anti-cheat" for quite some time.

I think that’s an incredibly rare stance not held by the vast majority of gamers, including competitive ones.
Mid range hardware can run majority of games at high fps. You can easily leave performance on the table.
Question for you - why don’t you buy a console? (I agree with you by the way, it’s why I have a ps5)
