This is amazing news for anyone who games on Linux, whether you use Valve's hardware or not.
- Seriously. Just covering more ground. Imagine if they broke into the mobile phone space.

Does it look like this APU is going to be used in a Steam Console, VR headset, or the Steam deck 2? I had assumed console, but it seems a little underbaked in 2025, so maybe a mobile device makes more sense.
Valve tend to be getting it right with their hardware choices since the steam controller, so I'm sure whatever they do there will be good design sense behind it.
