Hold up, Steam Frame? New Valve VR hardware??

AND it'll be a self-contained headset. Want to play Beat Saber? Just put it on and hit the power button, no computer needed.

Want to play Alyx with an actually decent framerate? Just power on your main gaming computer and plug in the wireless dongle, and you can leverage the beefier GPU.

I'm excited for it.

and plug in the wireless dongle

Depending on your setup, not even that. It sounds like if your wifi hardware is good enough, you'll be able to play over that as well, eliminating even the line of sight requirement between PC and headset

Whole gaming set, in fact. Steam Machnes are finally coming! Checking it, seems that it is going to be a powerhouse that will blow up console market.
