A major victim of the RAM crisis, and a real shame.

    Maybe that’s because it was supposed to be $700?

    Go build a decent entry-level PC for $1050 and let me know how it works out lol

      I thought that’s what the GN review did. A paper spec trying to match the Steam Machine, it comes out cheaper and lacks power constraints. They specifically do not reccomend the paper spec as an entry level build though, presumably because they could get more for less, the aim was to match the SM

      1-1.5k buys you an awful lot of mini pc. Beelink/minis forum/mini-producers are well situated to compete against the SM if they want. That’s the comparisons I’m waiting for.

        Yeah, that’s what I want to see. I want to see how real, in-game performance compares on a similarly priced off the shelf mini PC.
