This year's Game Developer's Conference is coming to a close tomorrow and if you thought Valve was done releasing newsworthy information, surprise! They're not! The Steam Store page now features it's own Steam Machine section, equipped with Steam Machines from 15 different developers.
The prices for Steam Machines can range anywhere for $460 to $5K. The prices aren't the only things that vary, the specs for each end of the spectrum change significantly per price (and developer).
The units that are around $460 – $470 can have a CPU from Intel (i3 Dual-Core) or AMD (Athlon X4 840), a GPU from Nvidia (GeForce GTX 2GB) or AMD (ATI Radeon R7 250X 1GB), Ram around 4GB and 500 GB of storage. In comparison, the Xbox One and PS4 both run on an AMD 8-Core CPU, have 8GB of Ram and the GPU for either consoles are as follows: PS4 has a (1.84 teraflop) GPU based on AMD's Radeon technology and the Xbox One has an AMD Radeon GPU (1.31 teraflops).
The high-end Steam Machines run on Intel Core i7 4770K (or 4790K),they feature a Nvidia Titan and Titan-Z class or up to 3-WAY Nvidia Geforce GTX 980, up to 32GB or Ram, and up to 14TB of storage.
You can see the difference is insane, every dollar goes somewhere in a lot of the Steam Machines. You can check them all out here.
Steam Machines will be available for purchase in November 2015.
