Cool excuse. If they were actually serious about releasing early 2026, they would’ve had these memory deals secured months ago. What’s the excuse for the new Steam Controller? I guess they can’t blame RAM for that one so they just didn’t mention it. lol

That excuse might work for the Steam Machine, which can be produced without RAM and then installed later on. How would they even start production of something like the Steam Frame without having a supplier for RAM? Do they have all the components just gathering dust until they figure out how to obtain RAM? Or did they assemble the whole SOC without RAM only to send it again to the fabs just to solder the RAM into it? Or maybe they don’t have any of the of the components yet and are using RAM shortages as an excuse to justify other delays? These are questions that only Valve can answer, but you are free to think about which one is more realistic.
If RAM is the problem, then the Steam Controller would have been out by now. That is unless they plan to release all 3 products on the same day, which is absurd and something not even Apple does anymore.
