Twelve Steam Machines to be Unveiled at CES 2014
"No less than twelve companies will be wading into the Steam Machine ring at CES 2014 this week, ready to knock-out the other competitors in their quest to belong under your telly.
Back in the mists of time when the Steam Box was first rumoured most assumed it would be a proprietary machine of sorts, but now its clear that everyone wants a piece of small-form factor action…
Steam Machine has a concept has evolved to a state where it can now be almost anything, provided it’s smaller than a traditional hulking great PC and it makes use of the extremely basic Steam OS and the intriguing controller.
We brought you the news last month of iBuyPower and Digital Storm’s entries into the Steam Machine world but we now know a total of ten other Valve partners will be presenting their wares at this weeks CES 2014.
Everyone involved so far includes Alienware, Alternate, CyberPower PC, Gigabyte, Falcon Northwest, Materiel.net, Next, Origin PC, Scan Computers, Webhallen and Zotac. This dirty dozen represents the initial batch of Steam Machines, although it’s still largely unknown what exactly is going to appear inside many of them.
We do know so far that Digital Storm’s model will start at $1500+, making this a top-end device, while iBuyPower will be coming in at a far more consumer friendly $499 price point. You might not expect much for a sum like that but it seems an AMD Radeon R9 270 has been promised, a $200 cost alone that already makes this machine seem like a great value option."

I'm a gamer, but non steam gamer. I live in Indonesia, and to get an original STEAM support video games I need to spend Rp. 600.000,- or $ 60.0 for Battlefield 4. And that's a huge amount of money for me. Anyway, about STEAM machines, I don't know what to say, I don't really understand this. But personally, I disappointed with this gaming evolution from years to years, which it's burden us, the low spec, from poor family gamers like me. This steam machine, will dominate almost 86% of released games over 2014, I just can feel it. And the PC's producer will invest their money and technology in this steam machine, which will cost more and more expensive. As you can see, my favorite PC producer, Alienware has joined this project, and ten all Alienware pc's and laptops will cost even more.
