Their unit will go on sale next year for $499 (USD), the same price as an Xbox One. Included will be a multicore AMD CPU, AMD Radeon R9 270 graphics card, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and a 500GB hard drive. The unit itself is smaller than an Xbox One but larger than a PS4. The power supply is included inside the case and appears to come in a glossy white with a customizable light bar running across the middle of the unit. Included will be a Steam Controller and the system itself will run the Linux-based Steam OS from Valve.
The company claims that the hardware will have no problems running existing Steam Linux games at 1080p and 60fps. As this is merely a prototype and since the release is still in 2014, some details and specs are liable to be changed.
Also keep in mind that other companies will be creating and releasing their own Steam Machines.
