Gaming on Sidechat | If steammachine is 1k+ they should keep it, digital foundry said it will be slightly less powerful than a ps5. Makes no sense to sell ps5 level pc but prices as ps5 pro. At $1k+ u can find a way more powerful prebuilt pc just slap in big picture mode

With current RAM and computer part prices I’d still buy at 1k for the convenience. Prices are only going up not down from here. Probably I’d pay up to $1,200 because of the customer service, convenience and reputation of quality of Steam. Although ideally I’m hoping for around $800 or less

I honestly don’t know if you can find a prebuilt pc for 1k that’s more powerful than a PS5 pro or even steam deck sadly, prices are absurd. To me you either spend 600 on a series X or PS5, or you save up and buy a 2500+ PC with a 5080 that can handle everything well, all the imbetweens aren’t really worth it

Steam machine is a costume pc only the storage and ram will be upgradable, diy will be a lot more restrictive than a regular pc with just regular parts and if u wanna upgrade that will be impossible

At $800 will be a reasonable price but $1200? U can easily find a way better pc. Just use steam os and buy a controller and u got yourself a steam machine
