Will game studios care about the Steam Machine? (discuss.tchncs.de)

Some gamers have graphics cards that cost probably two or three times as much as the whole Steam Machine.

Will studios focus on the RTX 6090 or give slower machines a chance?

Are the Steam Machine's components good enough to run PS5 ports?

Yes, it’s only slightly weaker than PS5

This would make it a good enough system, but not one for the next 10 years.

It's still an upgrade for 70% of Steam users

There were games from my wishlist on sale that I haven't bought because my current system isn't ready. So I'm in the market for a new PC. (And because Windows 10 support runs out in October 2026.)

One of the games is a PC port of a PS5 game. If the trend continues, I probably want to run a PC port of a PS6 game in 2032. Preferably on a PC I bought in 2026.
