The Steam Machine May Not Be Priced As A Console, But It May Not Be That Much Higher Either

The Steam Machine is unlikely to cost like a console , but its final price may not be that much higher than one, a new analysis suggests.

In a new video shared on YouTube, LinusTechTips has built a gaming PC featuring specs similar to Valve's upcoming system, providing a good preview of the performance the system is expected to offer (which is speculated to heavily rely on AMD FSR to deliver 4K resolution at 60 FPS gameplay ). Building this system with off-the-shelf parts (some of which offered nice-to-have features that didn't significantly impact performance), purchased at their lowest historical price, resulted in a total cost of $602.
