Valve’s new Steam Machine will probably cost $600 to $650, according to the well-known leaker Moore’s Law Is Dead. He says the basic 512 GB version is more expensive than he previously thought, because memory and storage parts have gotten way more expensive lately. He says if Valve charges over $700, it’s a bad idea and you’d get better value from a regular PS5 (which costs about $500–600 right now) or a similar gaming PC for around $700–750. For heavy Steam users, $600 could make it a smart buy. But if the price goes higher, most people would probably choose a PS5 for its exclusive games or a full PC that you can upgrade later. Valve hasn’t announced the official price yet. Back in the 2010s, their first Steam Machines didn’t sell well for the same reason.
