Valve has still not confirmed pricing or availability for the Steam Machine. In the meantime, the developer of EmuDeck is selling an alternative called Playnix, which should outperform the Steam Machine thanks to an AMD Radeon RX 9600 XT 16 GB GPU.

    This is interesting; specs look pretty solid for the price. Notably this uses DDR4 ram vs. the DDR5 in the Steam Machine which, given the current… situation… probably contributes a lot to the price point seeming reasonable.

      Also 600W is likely several times more power draw than the Steam Machine is aiming for, however much that might matter to someone.

    The 9060 is very low performing… It’s that what the steam machine has as well?

    I have a 2080ti with a higher passmark score, and that thing is from 2018.
