Steam Machine 2026 on the Way; Xbox RDNA 5 SoC Targeted for 2027
AMD said Valve’s Steam Machine will ship in early 2026, and its semi-custom division is eyeing a 2027 launch for a next‑gen Xbox SoC based on RDNA 5. The Steam Machine specs are confirmed, while the Xbox chip (rumored as Magnus) is described as potentially packing a Zen 6/6c CPU and 68 RDNA 5 compute units, up to 48 GB of GDDR7, and an on‑chip NPU for AI, signaling a high‑end console/PC hybrid strategy alongside Sony’s PS6 plans.
