so, you've probably heard about the steam machine by now - it's valve's attempt at a console-like pc that's supposed to bring high-end gaming to the masses. one of the big selling points was that it could handle 4k resolutions at 60 frames per second, which sounds amazing, right? well, it turns out that might not be entirely accurate.



valve recently changed the steam machine's product page to remove the claim of 4k gaming at 60fps. instead, it now says "up to 4k gaming" with a fancy upscaling technology called fsr 4.1. this change is pretty significant, especially since the steam machine has just launched and people are starting to put its hardware to the test. it's not clear why valve made this change, but it's got a lot of people talking.



i've been following the steam machine's development for a while now, and i have to say, i'm a bit disappointed by this news. i mean, who doesn't want to play games in 4k at 60fps? it's like the holy grail of gaming, right? but at the same time, i'm not entirely surprised. from what i've read, the steam machine is basically built for 1080p gaming, and anything above that is just a bonus. still, it would be nice if valve had been more upfront about its limitations from the start.



apparently, some tech experts are saying that the steam machine can still produce some pretty decent gameplay, even if it's not quite at 4k 60fps. you can use fsr upscaling to get a similar look, and some games will even run smoothly at lower resolutions with variable refresh rates. it's just not the same asRead more: Full article on www.eurogamer.net
