Overview
- Steam Machine is a compact living-room PC running SteamOS with a semi-custom AMD Zen 4 CPU (6 cores/12 threads), an RDNA‑3 GPU with 28 CUs, 16 GB system RAM, 8 GB GDDR6 VRAM, and 512 GB or 2 TB storage options.
- Valve claims performance at up to six times the Steam Deck, promising 4K/60 fps and ray tracing via AMD FSR, though coverage flags the 8 GB VRAM and likely reliance on older FSR versions as practical limits.
- Valve told The Verge the Steam Machine’s price will be comparable to a similarly specced PC, with final prices and exact release dates for all devices slated for early 2026 still unannounced.
- Steam Frame targets wireless PC VR and local play using a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, 16 GB RAM, internal storage (256 GB or 1 TB), eye-tracked foveated streaming over a bundled 6 GHz dongle, monochrome passthrough, and a modular compute/battery design.
- The new Steam Controller adopts the Steam Deck layout with dual trackpads, magnetic analog sticks, gyro and haptics, about 35 hours of battery life, and a 2.4 GHz puck that doubles as a charging dock.
