That's a reasonable price, thanks for the heads-up!

You might prefer their UMPC: http://www.redtechbot.com/blog/gpd-pocket/

I considered it, but at the momentm, the Win 2 has more features and has a gamepad.

The built-in gamepad is a plus if you'd want to play on it.

Curious to see what this can do. The original could run games like Skyrim and Crysis at a decent 30 fps but at low settings.

If this can run last gen games well at 720p med/high settings, that would be a big deal for its size.

Basically, we arent far from Windows 10 being a great handheld gaming platform.

Updated the OP with some notes they game on performance, already mentioned it in the thread, but some might miss it:

• Grand Theft Auto 5: GPD Win is around 20 fps and GPD Win 2 is about 38 fps.
• Overwatch: GPD Win from under 30 fps and GPD Win 2 is more than 70 fps.
• DOTA 2: GPD Win from must over 30 fps and GPD Win 2 goes to 70 fps.

Seems like it doubles the performance.
