If you&#8217;re using your gaming PC to run games <em>through<\/em> the headset, then Proton isn&#8217;t required, but for anything directly hosted on the Frame itself, the compatibility layer will kick in if the game is Windows-based.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s worth noting that Proton itself is for the operating system side of things. To get x86 code working on Arm hardware, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/hardware\/vr-hardware\/steamos-launching-for-arm-fex-translation-layer\/\" target=\"_blank\">a translation layer called FEX is used<\/a>, and as things currently stand, there&#8217;s a fair-sized performance hit involved.<\/p>\n<div style=\"min-height: 250px;\">\n<div class=\"kwizly-quiz kwizly-W099kO\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p> <script src=\"https:\/\/kwizly.com\/embed\/W099kO.js\" async><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Since this is a beta update of Proton, and coupled with the fact that Valve hasn&#8217;t officially announced the Arm version, it suggests that the retail release of Steam Frame isn&#8217;t quite ready yet. But it&#8217;s surely not far off, and out of the trio of new products Valve has announced (Steam Frame, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/hardware\/gaming-pcs\/steam-machine-specs-availability\/\" target=\"_blank\">Steam Machine<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/hardware\/controllers\/steam-controller-specs-availability-hands-on\/\" target=\"_blank\">Steam Controller<\/a>), this is the one that I&#8217;m most interested in.<\/p>\n<p>I currently use a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/hardware\/vr-hardware\/meta-quest-3s-review\/\" target=\"_blank\">Meta Quest 3S<\/a> for VR gaming on my main PC, and the one thing I don&#8217;t like about the whole experience is the fact that I need to use a hefty optical fibre USB cable to get the best experience. Over Wi-Fi, it&#8217;s just not the same, as the increased latency and reduced bandwidth are quite noticeable.<\/p>\n<p>The Steam Frame uses a dedicated 6 GHz wireless dongle to basically stream games from your PC to the headset, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/hardware\/vr-hardware\/hands-on-steam-frame-impressions\/\">our Jacob came away very impressed by the Frame&#8217;s wireless nature<\/a> when he tried it himself.
