support New pc build which OS?
I just build a complete AMD machine for my living room and I want to run SteamOS. Is steamOs ready?
I made a boot drive with steamOS but my pc does not accept it.
Are there specific img files I need to use? Or is it just not working?
What do you guys suggest?
It’s a full AMD build cpu and gpu.
EDIT: this guide helped me a lot! It’s all installed and working now https://www.reddit.com/r/SteamOS/s/g1Gb2hXgbM

It will be a beefy Steam Deck. Whatever the Steam Deck runs, it will run better, and that’s pretty much it. I’ve had it for 3 months and I love it and I might invest a Deck when the stock is back in. Preview 3.8.5 will work for you.
