Valve hasn’t shared its original planned price for the Steam Machine. But the recent price increases to the Steam Deck OLED — up $240 for the 512GB version, and up $300 for the 1TB version — “should give you a ballpark estimate of how much the Steam Machine’s target had moved,” according to an Aftermath interview with Valve. Subtracting those same price hikes from the current Steam Machine prices nets out at theoretical original prices of $809 for the 512GB model and $1,049 for the 2TB model.
