I saw someone price out similar components around ~500-600 USD, so thats my guess.
That's prett competitive for console prices these days
Yeah, I think people are really blowing this out of proportion. PCs aren't that expensive (yes I know its a luxury good, and out of reach of lots of people), especially entry level, and there are a lot of good options near this price/form factor. If its priced as high as half the estimates I've seen people would just DIY it for the same price without the valve branding.
I would pay extra to avoid the hassle of pc-building. I can do it but I don't enjoy it
