Tariffs, component volatility, and Valve’s tolerance for losses all lead to uncertainty.

The title is a bit misleading, as the article lists diverging analysts’ opinions, ranging from Valve willing to sell at a loss or low margins, to high prices due to RAM and SSD price volatility.

          Not an experience I would want personally. But that’s one of the differences between me and a PC gamer, PC gamers are happy to put up with a lot more crap with their gaming than I am.

              Well at a desk you don’t have to pull out the keyboard from wherever you stash it and put it on your lap every time you want to change games. It’s already there.

              But of course I am comparing to console gaming where this option is a lot more crap in comparison.

                  Yeah I haven’t tried big picture mode lately but as I remember you still had to sometimes deal with keyboard and mouse to fix options or sometime edit files on the computer to make things work well on a given hardware. But maybe it’s improved since then.
