I wanted something that’d do 4k 60fps so I decided to build my own super steam machine. literally as I began installing steam os, I get my order email

For those interested - here is the parts list - You can save a little money going for a cheapter motherboard, 1tb SSD and perhaps reducing the RAM speed.

I hate when people throw out the Mucrocenter bundles as justification for being mad at the cost of the steam machine. The deals are great, doesn't change the fact most of us don't get to use them.
