Those first 2 you posted are roughly 10x the volume of the steam machine, which is one of the big draws for me
16.6" x 10.2" x 14.4" = 40 L
8.5" x 15.75" x 16.50” = 36L
vs
6.1 x 6.0 x 6.4 = 3.7 L
And even the DIY page the cheapest config they came up with is $920. I think Valve pretty much cannot sell their machine less than comparable PC, because if they did, people would just start buying them as general purpose small PCs, so they need to make at least a small profit on them, unlike the dedicated console makers who can take a loss on the machines since the only way to get software on them is through them
Lol you used volume to compare the physical size differences to make it sound much bigger.
Enjoy your very expensive paperweight in a few years because it can barely run games now well, let alone future ones.
I posted some examples I found in a few minutes checking that will offer a massive performance improvement and not take up a lot of space. You can find others if you cared to look
