Steam Deck will be officially released on the 25th of this month, and now the official has unbanned the initial unboxing graphic video, and as a result, someone directly dismantled it. Although this practice is contrary to the cooperation agreement, it also gives us the opportunity to see the internal design of the official version of steam Deck, especially the customized AMD APU processor.
Microsoft Xbox, Sony PlayStation are firmly using AMD custom chips, AyaNeo series handhelds have also used the Ryzen™ 4000U series, this year will be upgraded to the Ryzen 5000U series, but are standard editions.
Steam Deck's customized AMD APU is very special, belonging to the Van Gogh (Van Gogh) family, also known as Aerith (Iris), 7nm process, Zen2 CPU architecture, RDNA2 GPU architecture.
In terms of GPU, it is the same level as Microsoft's Xbox Series X/S and Sony PS5, which is one or two times ahead of the Vega architecture in Ayyneo, and has lower power consumption, from 10-25W to only 4-15W.
AMD recently released the Ryzen 6000H, Ryzen™ 6000U series also use the RDNA2 architecture, the corresponding game book, light and thin book is also about to be listed.
Disassembly found that the main chip in the Steam Deck was printed with a large VALVE LOGO, and there was also the word "Powered by AMD", which was very obvious in the meaning of customization and covered with sincere thermal grease.
In other respects, the internal layout is compact and secure, and it is strongly recommended to disassemble it privately.
As for the running performance, it cannot be made public now, and so on.
