Before you start making plans to evict your current rig, I want to explain how the Steam Hardware Survey actually works. Rather than representing every player that uses the storefront, the monthly census instead uses a small percentage of participants who’ve opted in as a sample. It’s anything but representative of all 154 million active users, meaning the statistic above isn’t an absolute.

Does the author know how *survey sample sizes work?

Do I?

Is it because it’s opt in or opt out?

    Absolutely agree. I keep seeing so many takes where they are ignoring that they specifically stated it was competing in the PC market, not the console market. I don’t see it being less than $800. Id expect $1000+
