When it was announced many pointed to its rather moderate spec as a problem. What are your feelings, would you consider it low spec? And even if it is, it’s this really a problem or possibly even a positive?
I’ve personally have been thinking for a while that ever more powerful, and power hungry, hardware is not the way forward for PC gaming.


I think it’s fine. The most demanding game I have is Spider-Man Remastered, the highest res TV I have is 1080p, so the Steam Machine would be fine.
I do play Planetary Annihilation: Titans, which can chew up 32Gb of RAM or more, but that’s a niche use case; it’s not a living room game anyway.
