Valve Rumored To Launch SteamOS For Desktop PCs Soon; Is Time For A Bloatware-Free OS Near?
Valve Reportedly Readies SteamOS for Desktops; Will Offer Gaming-Centric OS for Gamers
The dream of owning an actual SteamOS-based desktop may be very near. Valve's Steam Deck did something great that made millions of users want to switch to SteamOS permanently, getting rid of the bloatware-infused Windows 10 and 11 operating systems. The easy-to-navigate and gaming-focused operating system is now rumored to be released for regular desktop PCs as well.
This seems pretty exciting, but do keep in mind that it's not yet official. However, the reports do indicate an imminent SteamOS launch for the desktop platform. The user @SadlyItsBradley (SadlyItsDadley on X) posted that the SteamOS is 'almost here'. In the thread, he did confirm that he was talking about SteamOS coming to desktop PCs, and, judging by his post, it seems as if the launch is near.
The user SadlyItsDadley confirmed that Valve has been preparing for a 'general public release' of SteamOS and, if that's true, users may be able to transition from Windows to SteamOS for a more gaming-centric experience. By its default nature, SteamOS delivers a significantly simplified user interface and is bloatware-free, unlike Windows 11, which consumes a lot of your PC resources all the time.
In case you want to try the SteamOS early, Valve does have an option called 'Build Your Own', through which you can install the SteamOS if your system meets the minimum requirements. Do keep in mind that this particular OS isn't compatible with the Steam Deck.
