Valve Might Price the Steam Machine at $800… YIKES

New Steam Machine pricing hints suggest Valve could target an $800 range, sparking debates across the gaming community.
Valve might be preparing to price the Steam Machine at nearly $800 — and the gaming community is already sounding the alarm. New leaks, subtle hints from Valve’s own team, and reactions from tech reviewers like Linus Tech Tips are all pointing in the same direction: this could be a LOT more expensive than people expected.

In today’s video, I break down:

What the new pricing hints actually say

Why Valve might be aiming for an $800+ Steam Machine

The internal reactions that sparked the controversy

How this compares to PS5, Series X, and next-gen hardware

Whether a big Valve exclusive could justify a higher price

Why pricing determines if this launch succeeds or collapses

The Steam Deck proved Valve can make incredible hardware — but jumping into console territory with premium PC-level pricing is a risky move. If Valve miscalculates, this could become another Steam Machine flop… or a game-changing moment for PC gaming.

What’s YOUR take?
Is $800 a deal-breaker, or is Valve doing the right thing?
