A recent experiment detailed in a video aims to transform an older Dell XPS 9570 laptop into a gaming machine fully controllable with a gamepad by installing the official **SteamOS** system. The laptop, released in 2018, features an Intel Core i7 8750H processor and an Nvidia GTX 1050 Ti graphics chip. **SteamOS** is designed exclusively for AMD chips, making this hardware incompatible on paper. The installation process encountered issues with Nvidia drivers under Linux, as the system runs on a read-only partition, preventing the usual installation of drivers. To bypass this, scripts were installed on the user partition, highlighting the current limitations of the system. While Nvidia GPU support by Valve is progressing, it remains a challenge. Once the Nvidia graphics card was recognized, the console mode managed by the **Gamescope** program proved to be particularly slow, oscillating between 10 and 15 frames per second. This was attributed to the management of color correction calculated by the Intel processor in software, combined with the 4K resolution of the laptop screen. A few lines of code and the help of artificial intelligence allowed forcing the display to Full HD and delegating colors to the integrated graphics, bringing the interface up to 60 frames per second. However, the system still suffers from many bugs, such as performance drops when opening the Steam menu and significant slowdowns when moving the mouse. In games, the console mode proved less performant than the classic desktop mode, with noticeable fluidity losses on titles like Rise of the Tomb Raider and Outer Wilds. Despite Valve preparing updates like **SteamOS** 3.9.0 for other formats, the experience on non-AMD hardware remains experimental.
