I literally said “it has to be more than a 10% price difference”. And if you’re bad at math, that’s more than $100.

And that extra $100 gets you warranty from Valve, a sleek compact form factor, and a ready-to-go system.

The price from GN is less than a $100 difference. And their point was basically to show that you can’t get much cheaper than Valve’s price, and that it is actually competitive.
