  I wonder if they’re going to have a sku for the Frame with drastically reduced ram that’s required to be tethered to a host PC and not run anything on its own until upgraded.

  Being a standalone unit is nice, but I wasn’t planning on using it that wqy, and being able to save money by reducing ram would be nice

    This would be smart. Like it would have been a bonus for me but it’s not worth the premium on ram right now.

    You basically just got a bigger more expensive Steam Link at that point. Which the original one should still work?

      I believe you are thinking of a Steam Machine with this response.

      The Frame is a VR headset. How is that comparable to the Steam Link that is meant for display on a screen?

      If all I had was a big screen beyond with a steam link strapped to it that’s still a pretty great vr headset for the price

      They’re not the same. The OG Steam Link isn’t a VR headset
