I was on the reservation queue but hadn't received my email. I ended up in the queue for the 512GB and not the 2TB I really wanted, but luckily I found good deals on eBay for a 2TB SSD and a 16GB DDR5 5600 SODIMM for around $400 combined. Ended up ordering those just to have them when I finally did get my email, and luckily just last night I got my purchase email for the Steam Machine. Hopefully the RAM and SSD get here before the Machine does so I can upgrade it right away. That way I can have 32GB and dual-channel and enough space to triple boot SteamOS (for gaming), Arch Linux (for development, tinkering), and Windows (for Fortnite and development/testing as well).
I'm excited to reverse engineer its RGB and get it integrated into OpenRGB, one reason why I want all the OSes on it.
Very nice! I was really interested in that LED bar too. I appreciate your interest in improving OpenRGB too!
