Steam Machine reviews are here: 'Even Valve is disappointed'

Steam Machine ($1,049–$1,428) praised for design but weak performance (15 fps Cyberpunk 4K); PS5 Pro ($899) delivers better gaming value at lower cost. Valve's living-room bet struggles on value: premium price without performance parity signals adoption friction.

Valve launches Steam Machine ($1,049) unsub­sidized—hardware must be self-sustained due to doubled component costs, rejecting software subsidy model.
