    It’s a hipster PC. Even if there wasn’t the current hardware pricing bubble, you’d still pay the form factor tax.

      It is just impossible to get anything near this specs at this size with this price. And it hasn’t been like this for a long time. Speaking as an owner of HX99g.

      There are minis that are more powerful than Steam Machine, but they would start at $1200-$1500 and go as high as $2500. These machines wont run everything 4k@60 but due to how Valve manages their hardware, Steam Machine very likely will for a while.

      As an example, there are better gaming handhelds on the market judging by specs. They do be running games at better settings and fps. But Steam Deck is still is at the top of the list for its price and is still a benchmark in how it should be done.
