TL;DR: Valve launched the Steam Frame VR headset with an Arm-based Snapdragon chip, aiming to run Half-Life: Alyx natively and streamed from PC. The new hardware features a "Frame Verified" status for optimized games, while rumors suggest two upcoming Half-Life titles supporting PC and VR cooperative play.

This could be it for me. PCVR is the only reason I still run Windows. If this headset is reasonably priced, or if it causes the index to come down in price enough, I can finally get rid of this preposterous OS.
