The title is a bit misleading, as the article lists diverging analysts’ opinions, ranging from Valve willing to sell at a loss or low margins, to high prices due to RAM and SSD price volatility.

    Less than $1,000? Yes, why not? We’ll see what the price actually is, but I doubt it’ll be anywhere near that high. Valve was pretty smart about sourcing their parts for low cost and decent performance. I wouldn’t be surprised if it were closer to $500 even.

      Why not? That answer is easy. Because maybe you can’t. That’s why I asked 😂

        Yeah, but you can though. Go spec your own gaming rig if you don’t believe me.

        Also, again, there’s pretty much no way it’ll be $1,000.
