    I’m looking forward to being able to install it on a desktop PC with an Nvidia GPU. Nothing against AMD, I just already own a 2070 Super.

      On a desktop, I don’t think SteamOS actually gets you much compared to just running Steam as an app on top of a normal Linux distribution.

        Steam as an app has big picture mode but I’m not sure how that compares to the entire OS being dedicated to being displayed on a TV and managed by a controller. I’m planning to turn some old hardware into a dedicated living room game console.

          Well sure, if it’s a dedicated living room game console then of course SteamOS would be ideal. But you said “desktop PC!”

          The entire OS? SteamOS has custom repositories, but I’m reasonably sure for the most part it’s a normal KDE Desktop running on Arch Linux with Steam Big Picture auto starting.
