TL;DR: Valve’s upcoming Steam Machine, set for release in 2026, aims to combine affordability and ease of use. Recent leaks suggest prices around $950 for a 512GB model and $1,070 for 2TB, comparable to high-end devices, though official pricing remains unconfirmed amid memory supply challenges.

    I was disagreeing with the statement “valve doesnt sell hardware at a loss”, which applies to more than just the Steam Machine.

    I was unaware that they had said this, thanks for sharing it.

    I wasnt trying to imply the idea was to somehow take over PC gaming. My point was just that creating new PC users by offering a console like experience will increase Steam sales.
