the $1000 Xi3 Piston "Steam Box" Console
« on: March 11, 2013, 03:28:40 pm »
For $900 you get an AMD A10 APU, 8GB of RAM, and a 128GB SSD. You can upgrade to a 256GB SSD for only $340. Seriously, they want you to pay an extra $340 to upgrade to a 256GB SSD. Im expecting Xi3 to use this as a marketing ploy to get BUZZ on the Piston and change prices whli introducing other configurations but an AMD A10... for $999? id rather get the MSI GX60 than this if i wanted a gaming A10

ok i just realized this thing might have a reason for being priced at $999, notice the part of the video showing 3 displays? it suggests this thing might have a 7970m graphics card because it is the only mobile series 7000 GPU capable of an Eyefinity Triple Monitor set up and is the same GPU of the MSI GX60 i mentioned above
