features, they're introducing ways for their own GPU architectures to support the DirectStorage API.

Which, okay, is still not available in any released game, though we do know that Forspoken at least will support it, and is aiming to on an NVMe SSD. Look, it needs both implementation by a game's developers, as well as optimisations within that game to make it work. So yeah, it's taking its own sweet time.

But Forspoken is on its way in October. Unless that too slips from the barren release schedule that is 2022. And hopefully we won't have to wait another couple months on top of that for the devs to release the eventual DirectStorage patch. Dave has been gaming since the days of Zaxxon and Lady Bug on the Colecovision, and code books for the Commodore Vic 20 . He built his first gaming PC at the tender age of 16, and finally finished bug-fixing the Cyrix-based system around a year later. When he dropped it out of the window. He first started writing for Official PlayStation Magazine and Xbox World many decades ago, then moved onto PC Format full-time, then PC Gamer, TechRadar, and T3 among others.

AOKZOE AI is the next Steam Deck competitor powered by AMD 6800UWe're guessing this one won't be particularly cheap either. Cheaper than steam deck? That's it's problem is it's price.

You cannot say you're a competitor at twice the price of a base model Steam Deck.
