Steam Machine Build - Opinions

mccormack_m · Oct 10, 2016

Hi everyone,

Typical noob thread, is this a good steam machine build, will it act as a good home media centre (kodi) and how will it compare to a PS4?

Any tips would be much appreciated. Trying to get as much bang for buck under £500.

Thanks!

Thanks for this.

Do you have a build with a slightly smaller case? Looking for something that will fit under my TV.
