Valve Was Forced Into Making A Weird Hardware Decision With Steam Machine

Valve's Steam Machine launch is impacted by a RAM crisis, forcing a 'memory lottery' for consumers. All units will ship with 16GB of RAM, but configurations will vary between dual 8GB sticks or a single 16GB stick, potentially affecting performance due to single-channel memory speeds. Valve attributes this decision to supply chain issues and supplier demands.
