Steam Machine is a great product stuck at the wrong price point. It makes no sense to a PC gamer and SteamOS launch on other hardware means any PC is now a Steam Machine.
Let’s see your recommendation, smartypants. The closest prebuilt I’ve heard about is from HP and more powerful but $1500+.
Multiple outlets have tried / are trying to built their own equivalent to the base model and they’re all ending up close to the same $1,000-1,100 price.
How many people actually care about it being that tiny though?
Anyone strapped for cash is probably gonna get a much bigger machine to get a much better value. Only the right enthusiast would pay more for worse performance just for the size.
Steam Machine has no place in the PC Gamer world. Just get a prebuilt PC for the same price that is more powerful.

Anyone who wants a pc under the tv basically
It doesn’t have to be a 6 inch cube to fit under your TV. The PS5 Pro is nearly 16 inches long.
Then I couldn’t call it GabeCube
People who actually put next to their TV. I can’t put a full size tower there
