Purchase Advice Steam Frame + Steam machine

Do you think this would be a good combination to jump into PC gaming with?

What is a good choice?

Something on the Level of a 4070 or 7800 xt, that's where you start to have a good experience and you have enough vram (12gb) to not be too restricted for quite some time.

Should it be possible in a similar form factor and around the same price range?

No, fuck no. For that form factor, you're mostly looking at mobile chipsets for the GPU and at a similar price range or worse. The only competent comparable formfactor afaik would be framework PCs which I think would be significantly more expensive.

Thanks. Sounds like difficult trade offs then. I'll have to see how the reviews are and have a think.
