Gigabyte's Steam Machine is the smallest of them all.
The Gigabyte Brix Pro is a cool little piece of kit. In fact, it was the smallest Steam Machine at Valve's event, but it was also light on details. We've talked about the Brix Pro before when we found out that it would be running Intel Iris Pro 5200 graphics. It may not be able to keep up with discrete graphics cards, but we can tell that Gigabyte is going after an entirely different target with its Steam Machine.
- Price TBD
- CPU: Intel Core i7-4770R
- RAM: 2 x 4 GB
- Graphics: Intel Iris Pro 5200
- Storage: 1 TB SATA 6 Gb/s

Most amd apu's sure but not the fastest ones, more importantly though this is one hell of an unbalanced rig for gaming especially where this could work perfectly fine as an office pc gaming rigs need a lot more gpu for their cpu and running an i7 without a graphics card is just stupid for a gaming machine.
the a10 6800K is around € 150 cheaper and would offer better gaming performance so even if you want to go cpu/apu only that would have been a much better choice. Even though it would still be a poor gaming rig.
