It is a bigger, don’t have the Steam Controller dongle integrated, and you need to manually install SteamOS on it.

But you get a machine that can be upgraded way more easily than the Steam Machine, and a better GPU from the start.

    Good questions. I don’t know all the answers but I can give you at least those.

    • warranty is 5 years
    • hardwares are standard, if it works on the Steam Machive, it will work on that one
    • HDMI CEC I don’t know. It works on my Linux HTPC, so I don’t see why it wouldn’t work for this one.
    • As for quietness, I can’y say, but I suppose it uses the stock cooler.

      Bit of a tangent but could you grace me with the wisdom of how you got CEC to work? I see many conflicting things online and don’t know what hardware/software I need to achieve this. This is the one thing my Bazzite HTPC doesn’t have yet :(
