Leaked Geekbench 6 CPU scores for Valve’s Steam Machine appeared online on June 16, 2026, posted to X by @Olrak29_ and cited by Videocardz before an expanded report by Windows Central.
The listing identified the Steam Machine’s custom AMD 1772 processor, giving the first fresh signal of the device’s CPU performance ahead of any official numbers from Valve. The leak arrived late on June 16 and was summarized by Windows Central as a new set of Geekbench 6 results tied to the living-room PC.
This valve steam machine update follows an earlier leak: some Geekbench numbers for the Steam Machine surfaced in August 2025 when the unit was shown running Windows. Taken together, the posts offer scattered early measurements for a device that has been visible in public roughly seven months.
Windows Central’s write-up also noted a comparison that matters to readers: handheld PCs the outlet tested showed higher CPU power than the Steam Machine did in these results. The outlet added that the handheld advantage in raw CPU numbers is not necessarily a reason to panic for Steam Machine buyers or watchers, framing the gap as an early datapoint rather than a final judgment.
Two immediate facts stand out from what was posted and what was not. First, the leak names the AMD 1772 as the processor inside Valve’s unit, which anchors expectations about the machine’s architecture and energy profile. Second, the published accounts stopped short of sharing the actual numeric Geekbench 6 scores for the Steam Machine — the report relayed their existence without reproducing the figures.
The absence of raw scores leaves an important gap. Without the specific Geekbench 6 numbers, third-party comparisons and validation are limited: reviewers and enthusiasts cannot replicate or dissect the results, and Valve has not released an official benchmark sheet to fill that void. The earlier August 2025 Geekbench items established a precedent for leak-driven data, but they did not settle performance questions then, and these June results arrive with the same incompleteness.
What happens next is straightforward and consequential: Valve can either supply official CPU figures or let the conversation be driven by partial leaks. If Valve publishes its own Geekbench 6 results or a formal performance statement, the market will have a basis to judge the AMD 1772 in context; if it does not, expectations for the Steam Machine will continue to be shaped by scattered postings and by comparisons to handheld devices that may prioritize different thermal and power trade-offs. The most important unanswered question is whether Valve will step in with authoritative numbers before launch or leave performance to be sorted out one leak at a time.
