    My point is that even pre-built PCs are cheaper and better in every way other than size.

    Going on microcenter and Best Buy can easily get you a better gaming PC even with the AI apocalypse going on.

      Size is a big factor here. Steam made a console sized PC.

      There isn’t a lot of PC case that size. And the list of PC parts for SFF are limited and more expensive than their normal counterparts.

      So yeah, if you want a full tower PC in your living room, don’t buy the Steam Machine. But I haven’t seen a PC build of that size cost less.
