Valve’s Steam Machine Starts at $1,049 Without a Controller

SMRTR summary

Valve has officially unveiled pricing for its Steam Machine, a console-like PC starting at $1,049 for the 512GB model without a controller. Powered by a semi-custom AMD Zen 4 CPU and RDNA3 GPU targeting 4K/60FPS, it runs SteamOS and outperforms the Steam Deck, though reviewers say it won't beat current-gen consoles. Bundled controller versions offer slight savings, and reservations open until June 25.
