In this video, I cover: • Steam Machine’s semi-custom AMD Zen 4 CPU (6C/12T) • The RDNA 3 GPU with 28 CUs and 8GB GDDR6 VRAM • How this hardware compares to the Ryzen 5 7600/7600X and Radeon RX 7600 • Why the new “Steam Machine Verified” system concerns me • Valve’s pricing philosophy and why this won’t be console-priced • Who this device is really for • And whether I plan on buying one If you’re curious about the new Steam Machine, its real-world performance, or how it stacks up to building your own PC, this video gives you the full breakdown.
