Steam Machine reports rare GPU failure with a new 'Red Line of Death' echoing Xbox's Red Ring

A Steam Machine owner posts a GPU failure after a system update, bricking the machine and triggering a front LED 'Red Line of Death'—a clear nod to the Xbox 360's infamous Red Ring of Death. Since the GPU is soldered to the motherboard, it isn’t user-repairable. The incident appears isolated so far, but it has hardware observers questioning Steam Machine reliability and Valve's support options as a $1,000 device faces renewed scrutiny.

Valve support guidance points to replacement, though the limited production run makes widespread impact unlikely.
