ok so now that a #Nintendo Switch2 is off the table for me (because I would feel REALLY stupid buying it and not truly owning it)
I was thinking about a #steamdeck.

But then I felt like I really don't plan to carry a gaming console with me anymore and the only reason I'd want one is because of its handy form factor.

But since the #archlinux based #SteamOS was recently released to the public, that made me think: maybe just build a small form factor gaming PC (basically Mini-ITX) and run #SteamOS3 and connect it to the TV 😄

Main usage would be Final Fantasy XIV, Guild Wars 2, whatever indie games from Steam, and I guess some other stuff 🏴‍☠🤓

So Steam OS 3 will finally come to (almost) every PC hardware so everybody can enjoy a hassle-free #gaming experience without actually buying an operating system.

Don't get confused when searching for Steam OS via Google. Websites about Steam OS 2 (Debian) are still up and running. This OS is very old, and you shouldn't touch it.

Soon Valve will announce the new OS in town for gamers ... :-)

After a few years and after having to return a faulty GPU, I have built myself another couch/gaming pc. :)
Ryzen 7600, 32gb Ram, a RX 7900GRE and 2tb of NVMe storage plays everything I want pretty smooth and SteamOS Holo works great on the bigscreen. Especially FSR just working out of the box with everything.
I also dig the Fractal Ridge case for the Console-Vibe :D

(Oh, and I guess thats the first time in ~20 years that I bought a new amd gpu...)
