Crucial 16GB 1x16GB DDR5 5600 CL46 SODIMM Laptop Memory PC5-44800

SanDisk Optimus 5100 2TB M.2 2280 NVMe PCIe 4.0 x4

The DRAM that came in it was SK Hynix 5600, but having mixed sticks has not been a problem for me. I've used it quite a bit on all 3 operating systems with no memory concerns.

The SSD was just whatever was available on eBay for a decent price, any NVMe will work. If you get a normal size 2280 drive you need to relocate the standoff because the included drive is a small 2230 drive (same size as the Steam Deck uses). Moving the standoff is pretty easy so you can accommodate either size NVMe SSD.

I’m loving my steam machine so far it fits in my living room perfectly.

As one of the many people geographically restricted from purchasing this: very good luck to those that can buy it

Steam Machine is awesome, got my 512GB + Controller last week. Upgraded SSD to 2TB and added an extra 16GB stick of RAM. Triple booted SteamOS/Arch/Windows. Great little gaming box that also doubles as a travel PC.
