Frame is obviously the main headline here, but they've also launching a new SteamOS mini-PC and a new controller.

No prices listed for any of them yet, as far as I can tell.

Real shame it’s only 60Hz at 4k. There’s a gap for good 120Hz@4k streaming.

Hoping the next Apple TV will do it.

Edit - updated specs claim it can do this, but it’s limited to HDMI 2.0

So, in the specs for the mini-pc, it claims the video out can do 4K @ 120Hz (even faster if displayport). I assume the 4K @ 60Hz you saw is from the "4K gaming at 60 FPS with FSR" line.

I reckon it can probably stream at 4K@120 if it can game at half that.

Interesting. I also saw HDMI 2.0 - I guess it’s technically possible but with subsampling?
