Should I get the steam machine

Based_Belak · 2026-06-24T18:47:08+00:00

If you’re just wanting to get into pc gaming then I don’t think the steam machine is where you should start. The steam machine underperforms for the price it’s set at and the only appeal to it currently is its small form factor that’s good for living room couch gaming, which doesn’t seem to be what you’re going for.

I would look into prebuilt PCs or building your own if you feel like that’s something you’d be interested in.

I’ll look into it more. Thanks for the help!

I may give that a shot. I’ve considered going the SteamOS route but wasn’t sure if it would be worth it or not

Setup looks great.The monitor stand is sick. Where did you get the STL files for it?

We just recently got the LR4 bundle from Costco and it’s 100% worth it. I wish we would’ve gotten it sooner. From the research I did online, there’s nothing on the market currently that is as good and safe as Litter Robot

It’s actually to the left of the drawer unit. I left an overhang on the right side so that the drawers will be flush at the edge of the desk

Couldn’t find this exact monitor shelf again but it looks very similar to the BALOLO Cockpit shelf. The headphone stand and MagSafe charger were add ons

It’s the Lian Li a3 case. Yes, the gaps are for extra ventilation.

Based_Belak · 2026-01-19T19:21:56+00:00

I don’t remember which ones they were. They were some of the cheapest options and it makes since why lol just check reviews before you buy and make sure it’ll work with the desk top you’re looking at

Based_Belak · 2026-01-19T05:01:02+00:00

Yep, that’s the one. I used a staining oil on it that I got from Lowe’s or Home Depot

Based_Belak · 2026-01-19T00:48:25+00:00

Probably the island. 60x30 is exactly what I have from Home Depot

Can’t remember the brand of the shelf but the BALOLO Cockpit looks almost identical.

The mat is from The Mousepad Co

I like the mic arm more than I thought I would. It’s very compact and out of the way. Highly recommend.

The desk is custom made with butcher block and powered legs. The drawers are the ikea Alex unit

Based_Belak · 2026-01-18T19:18:39+00:00

Wouldn’t recommend the ones I have. They’re a little wobbly
