The Steam Machine is real and it just put the PS5 and Xbox Series X on notice. Valve's new home console appears to be as powerful as those systems, except it comes in a smaller size that’s perfect for the living room. If this newly announced gaming device is as user-friendly as the popular Steam Deck, it could be a serious game-changer.
Inside, the Steam Machine packs an AMD APU built on the company’s Zen 4 and RDNA3 architecture. Valve says the device supports 4K gaming at 60 frames per second with FSR (AMD’s answer to Nvidia’s DLSS frame-boosting tech), and that it’s over six times more powerful than the Steam Deck.
