Linus tech tips is disappointed that the steam machine won't be priced like a console.

The content creators are licking their chops. Everyone will have a video on how to undercut this thing or spend a little more to get something way better.

The ram issue has this all up in the air. It really looks like it was meant to be $500. I guess we'll have to see how the price compares to ram on the market when the time comes. For example, it this is $700, but it takes $900 to build something similar by then. Gross.
 
Thanks Sam Altman. You fxxed over EVERYTHING. Hope your company implodes in a way no company or bank has collapsed in the 20th or 21st century. You deserve all the failures, my guy 👍
Fan of easy answers? People who don't think like those
If anyone, blame Google, it was their paper ("Attention is all you need") that cause furor, Altman was just the fastest out of crowd to go out with product. But even without google it was bound to happen, model itself is just clever re-usage of models from 80's.
You can't really stop advancement of civilization.

Wake up babe, new Linus video about the price of a Steam Machine just dropped


The Play Some Games part at 15:05 was the most interesting part IMO. The early stuff sounded like preemptive damage control for Valve even if that wasn't intended.

Btw this video had me asking what happened to that fat guy that used to be in Linus videos. I look it up…

ok now i want to know what happened to the fat guy. do tell bud.
 
The problem with releasing it as a reference device is... they tried that the first go around and it flopped.

Steam Deck, despite being subsidised, hasn't sold that well for a console.

The saving grace might be that memory prices go even higher and Valve can get a reasonably priced supply due to bulk purchasing.
 
That was on deep sale for Black Friday most likely to clear out stock, can't compare
It depends on if HP is selling at a loss or not. If they still broke even, then Valve still has a chance to beat that price as they are using cut back lower tier binned parts. Moore's Law is Dead's BOM was $425, and that was using normal pricing for the CPU and GPU. Memory prices are of course up in the air, but I could really see it happen.


He's a fat woman now.


Just to put things into perspective, the leaving LTT wasn't a one off. Lots of people have cycled out recently. Though I'm not sure if that was a catalyst or not.
