Hello guys/gals,

I’m looking to build my own Living room steamOS console and want to give a try to Intel A770 (16GB version). Does anyone know if SteamOS currently supports Intel Arc lineup ?

Thanks

    AFAIK, the only way to use SteamOS not on a SteamDeck is with the hacky HoloISO/ChimeraOS repackagings. And AFAIK, they only support AMD GPUs, since that’s what’s in the SteamDeck and they’re just jacked up SteamDeck recovery images. Valve has confirmed that they’re still planning on releasing an image of SteamOS that is compatible with DIY PCs, but they have not said when to expect it.

      That is an innacurate description of ChimeraOS. Right now ChimeraOS “should” work with Intel Arc GPUs but because none of us have Arc GPUs to test on we can’t guarantee it.
