Valve’s Steam Machine finally has a price: a whopping $1,049 for the 512GB configuration or $1,349 for the 2TB version. And those are without bundled controllers, which drive up the cost more.
The prices are so high in part because Valve isn’t subsidizing the hardware, and the company has already indicated that the component crisis forced it to reconsider its initial pricing plans. In an interview with the YouTube channel Gamers Nexus, Valve engineers discussed the reality of sourcing RAM in 2026, with take-it-or-leave-it prices as memory and other components remain in short supply, from only a few vendors like Samsung, Micron, and SK Hynix.

Valve, of course, isn’t the only company in a bind over memory shortages, as the crunch is forcing many hardware makers to make significant pricing changes. Even Apple CEO Tim Cook is warning of incoming price hikes for iPhones, Macs, and other devices. And the RAM crunch isn’t projected to get better anytime soon.



if you’re a bigot because you think sky daddy told you to be, that doesn’t somehow make you not a bigot
Bigot - a prejudiced person who is intolerant of any opinions differing from his own.
How are you not a bigot with the statement above?
Because they’re not saying you can’t have that opinion, just that you are bigoted for having that opinion.
Hope that helps you! 😊
Yes. We are both biggots. And I think everyone is, looking at that definition.
Only very mature people are tolerant of opinions they dont agree with. Depends of course on what does tolerant mean? If you argue against it, are you tolerant?
I let a lot of people here have their weird opinions. :)
