The first list of Chromebook that supports Steam is revealed

For more than two years, Chrome Books and other Chrome OS devices such as Chromebook said that they would officially support games via Steam, but so far their expectations have increased and the movements have not appeared.

However, according to the information discovered by 9to5 Google this time, it is determined that Google's first list and minimum requirements for Google support Steam in the recently posted code change.

First, the specifications that are currently the minimum requirements require specifications of Core i5 or i7 processors of Intel 11th generation, and 7GBRAM or higher.

The initial lists of the supported Chromebook are as follows.

It is mainly ACER and ASUS Chromebook, but it is for models that are equipped with the 11th generation of Intel.

However, as previously reported, the RGB keyboard (gaming) Chromebook is not included in the list, and there is a fact that Steam was tested with Intel 10th generation processor and AMD processor, and NVIDIA cooperated in development.There is a possibility that the target model will expand in the future, such as the possibility that DGPU can be used in Chromebook (Chromebook equipped with DGPU will appear).

In terms of graphics, there are clauses that Intel also cooperates, so it is certain that the number of target models will increase.

In addition, in the comments of the developer, it wrote that there is a clear timeline for the release.The specific time is unknown, but from the list of Chromebook above, it is expected that it will appear later this year.

This year, not only the normal high -end Chromebook, but also the official support of Steam and the gaming Chromebook will be expected, and it will be an interesting year.

… However, if it is a Chromebook that applies to this in Japan, it will definitely exceed 100,000 yen, so it is not surprising.I would like to expect it including this area.
