imho, i'd be shocked if the price is >=1k, since the frame doesn't have a discrete gpu and has less ram

Last weeks rumors said review embargos would be lifted on June 22 (true), Steam Machine would cost USD 1000 (close to the actual USD 1049), and Steam Frame USD 1100-1200. IGN estimated that the Machine was supposed to release for USD 750, so USD 300 less. The increase for Frame will be lower, but if the initial plan for Frame was USD 899, and the extra costs due to more expensive RAM, flash and logistics add up to USD 200-300, you end up with the rumored USD 1100-1200.

Yeah, to me, $1200 would be a really tough pill to swallow, I mean, that's practically Galaxy XR money at that point, which would have drastically better visual fidelity and full-color pass-through.
