SteamOS Box Fails 4K Gaming Claims

Valve quietly edited its product page to remove claims that the Steam Machine delivers native 4K gaming at 60 FPS because independent testing proved those assertions false. A custom PC build using a pre-owned RTX 3080 GPU and Ryzen processor achieves this performance target for roughly $1,049 today while remaining compatible with standard Windows drivers instead of relying on Valve's proprietary SteamOS software.
