ok, that makes sense. For some reason I didn't clue in that the SteamOS needs to be running on the device.

No idea how I didn't make that connection...

I assume the hardware on the box is going to determine the performance, so in reality how does this differ from just installing windows on a PC and connecting it to the TV? Just don't need to do the install, so you could get away with a tiny SSD, is that about it?
