Living Room PC (Feat. Bazzite OS)

8 parts · $1622.86 estimated · Created Jun 30, 2026

Prime day went Brr... (goal: sell for ~$1600) Even more hand-me-down parts from my G517 upgrades, but it happened to make an insane steam machine. I do enjoy the catered experience and simplicity SteamOS brings to a simple desktop workflow, I don't edit or do any of my engineering work on it. I only game, watch YT/movies, and play music. So having SteamOS on this is an interesting experience, almost gamer+appleOS vibe. some HDMI-CEC WOULD BE NICE...

Estimates via HowManyFPS · cached up to 24 hours.

Why these are estimates?

These numbers are model-predicted averages, not measured benchmarks of your specific system. Treat them as ballpark guidance, not a promise. Real framerate depends on:

Your full system (RAM speed, storage, drivers, OS, background load)
In-game scene complexity, multiplayer player count, mods
Driver updates and game patches after this estimate was made
Display, thermals, and how your case manages airflow

If you want a measured number for your specific build, the only reliable answer is to benchmark it yourself once you own the parts.
