The title is a bit misleading, as the article lists diverging analysts’ opinions, ranging from Valve willing to sell at a loss or low margins, to high prices due to RAM and SSD price volatility.

There’s plenty of games today that use more than 16GB of system RAM on their highest settings and that’s only gonna become more common in the future… Besides, with this being literally a Linux PC, there’s more ways it could make use of the extra RAM than just games.
I don’t know what you’re on about, mate.
I’m pointing out that a game that needs 12GB of VRAM on its GPU doesn’t care if you have 128GB or 512GB of system RAM, because the GPU can’t use that RAM. You’re not going to have games that require 128GB of system memory that also work on an 8GB GPU.
This isn’t controversial or hard to understand.
Yeah, that’s kinda obvious. I just don’t think that’s gonna be a huge problem for people who are in the market for this thing, Valve specifically choose the specifications to be an upgrade for most steam users.
Some upgradability is still better than none.
