SteamOS aggiungere il supporto per Intel e AMD

Nuove versioni in arrivo SteamOS

Valve ha creato un grande scompiglio al Consumer Electronics Shows 2014 a Las Vegas annunciato niente meno che 13 partner per la Steam Machine. Ora SteamOS ha finalmente il supporto per le schede video integrate Intel e per quelle AMD.


Come saprete, SteamOS è già disponibile da qualche settimana ma compatibile solo con Nvidia. Con l'ultimo update di SteamOS, Valve ha aggiornato la lista delle schede video compatibili. Al momento con AMD Catalyst 13.11 Beta 9.9, le schede video AMD dalla serie HD 5000 in poi sono compatibili. Sono stati risolti anche i bug e i crash delle schede video Intel.

Secondo Valve, il nuovo aggiornamento si installa da solo. Ci congratuliamo con Valve per il pieno supporto per tutti e tre i brand. Valve ha comunque specificato che sono presenti dei bug noti su AMD.

Di seguito la nota di rilascio:
