During Valve's CES 2014 event this evening, the company released a brochure featuring images, prices, and specificiations for 13 third-party Steam Machines. Let's take a look-see!
Aside from Alienware, the party pooper, each of the 13 machines at the very least comes with some basic specs, giving us an idea of what to expect from these Valve-approved gaming PCs. Some we've seen earlier today. Others we'll be getting to know more about later this evening. According to Valve's Gabe Newell, Maingear's system was too late to make the brochure, but I'm sure there will be more about that down the line.
So, what do you guys think? That certainly a bunch of PC gaming machines, right?
Give that there are so many options, could it be that this will confuse consumers? After all, when you purchase a console you know that you are evenly matched with anyone else who buys it and developers know the specs everyone has under their TV.
With Steam Machine there seems to be so many options and some are so expensive that it seems it'd be more sensible to go out, buy a PC and hook that up to your TV. Can anyone actually see this venture being a success?
