The Steam Machine is the biggest victim of the RAMpocalypse to date, and that's made me unreasonably annoyed
The Steam Machine, Valve's TV-focused PC, has become a victim of the 'RAMpocalypse,' leading to a significantly higher price than anticipated. The base 512 GB model retails for $1,049, with the 2 TB version costing $1,349, making it poor value compared to budget gaming PCs. This pricing, driven by memory component shortages, reflects a broader trend of inflated PC hardware costs.
