As cm0002 said, you need to define your budget first. With that you can start looking around. You can find a more capable system than the SteamDeck second hand.

For a new system, look for a System Integrator that offers warranty. Usually local PC stores offer this kind of service.

You’ll need to define a budget for “really affordable”, but it’s going to be hard regardless to match the price performance of the deck. Is $700-$1000 affordable? That’s probably the ball park for a mid-tier prebuilt. You maybe be able to get lower with an Intel Arc option (HP has some of these at $600)

Define affordable, and also what you want out of it, 4K? High framerates? 1080p?

In general I’d say, unless you’re willing and able to spend 7-800+, the steam deck is giving you the best value to performance for “out of the box”/prebuilt.

If you want something better with any hope of approaching the price point of a steam deck you’ll have to build your own PC
