Since the thing is getting its official unveiling at CES, it's pretty sparse on the specs right now.

It will be able to play all Steam games at 1080p/60FPS, though that will mean dropping to High or Medium settings, based on PC World's testing of the GPU with some performance-heavy games. If you're okay with 30FPS, go nuts.
iBuyPower says it will be between the size of a PS4 and Xbox One, and like the PS4, there's no external power brick. It will have a customizable light bar in the middle. Yay.
