Steam gets a new Steam Deck-like Performance Monitor now in Beta replacing the FPS counter

So weird. Wouldn't it be easier to just reuse MangoHUD, which is essentially what they already do in gamescope, and make it work on Windows, since it's, well, open source?
Steam Deck gets a big upgrade with SteamOS 3.7 and you can now install it on other AMD handhelds

Same here. 5900X + 6900XT, installed vanilla SteamOS from the recovery image without an issue, everything runs perfectly fine. It's also preferred to have a nvme0n1 drive as the installer script refers to it during the installation, but it can be edited to sda.

I wish they finally migrated the Desktop Mode to Wayland, but alas.
8BitDo Ultimate 2 is getting full Steam Input support for more buttons
13 May 2025 at 10:39 am UTC
There are so many 8BitDo controllers, it's pain. Ultimate, U2, U2C, etc., each with Wired/Bluetooth/Wireless variant. I have the Wukong-themed one, it's Ultimate 2C, I believe. Will it benefit from this support?
SteamOS 3.7.0 Preview brings the 'beginnings of support for non-Steam Deck handhelds'

I can report that the desktop session is still X11. I wonder what's on their shortlist that makes them not touch that default yet.
Hopefully they'll migrate to Wayland for the PC release. I mean, X11 doesn't even properly support scaling, for crying out loud.
Split Fiction from Hazelight Studios and EA gets Steam Deck Verified and no EA app needed

Hopefully they will eventually go back and remove the EA App from A Way Out as well.

Wondering if this essentially makes HL2 and Episodes open source as well.
Steam Deck SteamOS 3.6.21 released fixing Indiana Jones and the Great Circle eyes and security bugs

Wonder why the green eyes bug needed an OS update. I thought it was a Proton issue. Guess it was a bug in the driver.
Steam Deck sales drop hard following the Nintendo Switch 2 announcement (updated: Valve fixed it)

I doubt it would drop that hard just from S2 announcement, that's gotta be an error.
Intel and NVIDIA drivers holding back a public SteamOS release, Valve not trying to compete with Windows

I just wish they updated the Desktop Environment to Plasma 6 and ditched X11 for Wayland. Other than that, I've been daily driving SteamOS on my main rig (team red) for some time without any issues.
