Hello Clerks Nation,

I'm interested in building my own steam machine, but i have so many doubt in my mind how to start it, and where to get the right hardware parts to build it. I would like to hear some suggestion from you, and definitely i would love to see photos of your steam machine, if you have created one.

Feel free to share photos, and everything about steam machine...

what kind of steam machine do you mean? I have heard of many different ones. I have heard of the steam box, which is basically a customizable gaming computer.....If that is what you are referring too, I may be able to give some pointers!

I was actually just talking to a friend about his steam machine the other day Anyone of you guys has created a steam machine?

He mentioned that he built his own steam machine and I jokingly said something along the lines of "So you have your own PC that runs on steam power???"

Steam machines look pretty sweet and they run like a beast, as far as I know. If I played more PC games I'd get one for sure. I'm more into console gaming though since I have a PS3, PS4 and a Wii Anyone of you guys has created a steam machine?

OK cool! Do you need to know what kind of parts you need or just where to get them? I'm sure you could find the parts on newegg, pcworld, or hothardware.com. I hope that helps, let me know if you need to know what parts to get!
