>$950 starting priceI don't feel so good Steambros...Valve messed up big time on this one.
>>107815101Damn, cheaper than expected.
>>107815101DOA.
>>107815101thats actually really good
This is from a Czech retailer. 19826 CZK is about $950.
>third party reseller in a country that steam ships decks to directlyretard
>>107815101AAA games are bloated.software is bloated.you're paying more for the same outputt a mid card could handle 5 year ago.
>>107815101No normalfag is spending almost $1000 on a console (yes this is a console in their mind). Even the Piss5 pro is $200 cheaper than the GabeCube if this is true.
>>107815101Priced out a pc with the same specs and different form factor, was around $1,250 burger bucks and has an exploding PSU with the most garbage supporting components on the planet. Decent price for what it offers.
>>107815101Is that considered a lot of money where you're from?
>>107815101please make the image a bit smaller, I can almost read itretard pepik
>>107815101IIRC Valve are only going to sell these directly, why would a third party site have their pricing?
Ooooh valvieeees
>>107815116Meh just random placeholder price, unless that retailer has like official partnership with valve which is unlikely,.
page is still up https://www.smarty.cz/Valve-Steam-Machine-512GB-4p249960https://www.smarty.cz/Web/GoogleAnalytics/GaInfo?productId=249960Why is this considered reliable?
>>107815193>smarty.czit's not, ALZA.CZ is largest Czech retailer when it comes to electronics, I assume if anyone had direct partnership with valve it would be them. Nothingburger.
>>107815101That's fuck off pricing. Deck was about $700. I'm not paying more than that.
>>107815193Because they seem to have exclusive product images.
>>107815101>literal who retailer lists random price for unreleased thing
>>107815116That's after VAT.
>>107815101uh, that doesn't look like the Steam website
smarty.cz is a scam site. You send them money and they'll never send you anything
>>107815101first product release? retailers prelist items with fake prices all the time--especially anticipated ones. go place a pre-order if you can. if the actual price ends up being higher they'll cancel your order. if the price ends up being lower they'll steal your extra money as a stupidity tax.
>>107815101can it run IA?
I'm going to say starting $750 assuming valve secured memory early, 899 otherwise
Can some one make me 1000 dollar pre-built with 2TB, thats better than Steam Machine?
>>107815149You are comparing only hardware but that PC has also free legal copy of Windows. If you include that the price wont be that nice anymore.
>people so desperate to meme up another tortanic that they go looking at source code for some obscure third-party retailerthe hell man, you can doom post all you want when they actually announce a price, do something else with your life.
>>107815367Gaben should have dropped it the day it was announced. Now people cooked the shitstorm from it.
>>107815367>>107815395
>loonix needs to be extensively overspec'd to run old games at 15-25FPSLmao
I'd gladly pay 2000 to make gaben happy :D
>>107815429lolin reality w11 lowers the performance of everything below the ps5 pro with its sheer bloathttps://youtu.be/Pc2ZFEWXjhw
>>107815101What do you expect with these RAM and SSD shortages.
>>107815456competitive pricing
>>10781510175% of a Series X for double the price!
>>107815454sceptical
>>107815346Nobody buys Windows of his own accord
>>107815505If you only knew.
>>107815505its funny how idiots think "buying" grey market keys is any more legal than just pirating windows
>>107815547my grey market key has worked for the last 10 years, so yeah
>>107815556so does massgravemicroshaft doesnt care either way, but if they wanted to they could legally invalidate your key at any time
>>107815563Oh no!!! Good thing Steam Machine will be on Linux so that would never happen to me anymore!!
Steambros.... It's over
Half life 3 just flew over my house.
>>107815106>>107815108>>107815152>>107815214That’s not after taxes which like, TVs, Iphones and cars will overcharge you $300.
>>107815836europeans count taxes in their prices dumbass
>>107815881Price including VAT is 23990 CZK or $1150
Try to build an equivalent PC and you'll be forking out moreThere aren't even any 9060XT cards in stock
>>107815193>Trusting an East European about anything

>>107815101Should be like $1250 or so
512gb def. made for Steam games not AAA games
>>107815101Well Valve doesn't subsidize the console price so it makes sense. Still, build your own more powerful PC for the same price, faggot.
>>107818008theyre making a 150% margin on it at this price
>>107815781GUYS HALF LIFE 3 JUST HIT THE PENTAGON! GABE NEWELL IS FLYING OVER MY HOUSE RIGHT NOW RUN WHILE YOU STILL C
>>107818008RAM cost $200-300 now for 16GB, I doubt you can build something cheaper

>>107815346People still willingly using windows in 2026 should be deported.
>>107815101it was never gonna sellpc gamers already have better pcs they should have made a gaming laptop or something
>>107815101$1000 for something weaker than a PS5... Valve should probably just shelve that project.
>>107819648>I approve of this messageEmployer mandated tech is the only exception.
>>107815101Smells like pure bullshit.
>>107815101i said it before. they should sell it as barebones so they can save face.
>>107815152It's a lot of money for a shitbox that is weaker than any current gen desktop part.
>>107815969Steam machine isn't even close to 9060, retard. Even a 7600xt runs laps around it.
>>107819918todays prices:r5 7600 with cooler $200 16gb memory $200rx 7600 $2752tb ssd m.2 $165basic motherboard $90basic 80+ 400w psu $40total $970this does not include a case $950 usd is fair.
They can't go super affordable because else these machines will just be bought up for the cheap ram and ssd. Don't think entry model will be more than $850 though, possibly $799.
>>107815101Half a year ago that would have been bad but the way prices are going that's probably decent enough value compared to building an equivalent pc by the time it comes out.
>>107820031that was like 700$ 3 months ago
>>107820031That CPU/GPU are quite a bit faster than what's in the gabecube. You can buy a basic case for like $50. The resulting PC will be fully upgrade-able at any time, rather than just the SSD (and RAM?) like the gabecube. If you buy used (easy, since these are all previous gen parts + DDR4) then you can shave quite a bit of money off that, or pay the same amount for better parts. Sure, you can argue that Valve isn't 'overcharging', but a company's bottom line isn't the consumer's problem. There are better options, and there's very few cases where this product makes sense.
>>107815101They didn't even list bus speeds. oh good lord...
>>107820591ExactlyLikely fake and ghey
>>107815101That's way cheaper than expected!I'll take 2!
