Are you ready for a $1,000 Steam Machine? Some analysts think you should be. (arstechnica.com)

The title is a bit misleading, as the article lists diverging analysts’ opinions, ranging from Valve willing to sell at a loss or low margins, to high prices due to RAM and SSD price volatility.

What GPU/CPU did you go for to fit into that budget?

[–] troed@fedia.io 5 points 3 days ago

Asus B360 Prime with 32GB RAM i5 9400F CPU 6700 XT GPU w/ 12GB VRAM

(all of that used)

... however, I originally bought it all for a virtual pinball build so I'm sure it could be done better with Bazzite in mind from the start.

I went with a white+birch Lian Li A3-mATX to get something barely good looking enough to fit with the rest of the gaming room.
