A recent FAQ posted by Valve answered many questions about the SteamOS that was released yesterday and while downloading the operating system has been tricky for some due to high demand, we can at least take a look at the minimum system requirements as those of you who are planning to build your own SteamBox can’t get started without them!
It comes as no surprise that the SteamOS doesn’t need a hefty gaming rig to run it, just like Linux it doesn’t take much to run and not every game on the Steam store is a graphical powerhouse, there are loads of indie titles that would run nicely on a PC with the power of a calculator.
It really is as straight forward as that! And I bet more than a few of our readers have systems like this tucked away in their garage, so if you’ve been eager to try out SteamOS, it doesn’t take a lot to get going. Of course, there are some benefits to installing the OS on an epic gaming rig too, not all the games will run on these system requirements, obviously.
