Steam Link on Raspberry pi

[󠀡󠀡]

Befor you say moonlight this and that i know about it

So steam link on android now is working and i was wondering if valve would ever consider making a pi port yer SteamOS woould be terrible for pi but steam link it could really happen

Is Pi fast / powerful enough?

[󠀡󠀡]

Well no but the android steam link is a streaming app so really it would work on a pi to run steam link app since the pi is powerful enough to stream as we see with moonlight reasion i ask is that unlike moonlight steam link is a streaming app made by valve them self so i would be much easyer to setup and also use trust me the work you have to put into moonlight to run on retropie can be a pain

Also steam link really could be a os by its self meaning all you need is a 1gb sd card and install steam link on it and your good to go

For me Parsec is working better than Moonlight.
But yes, I'd really like to see Steam Link for Raspberry Pi.

I'd also like to see an actual Steam client for Pi. Raspberry Pi is not really powerful enough for gaming, but with 1GB of RAM and quad core CPU it could run some older and not resource demanding games.
I mean, damn thing can run Minecraft without any problems. I also had Android OS installed on It and played some Android games.

It has a VideoCore IV GPU, which supports 1080p30. Not sure about framerate at 720p or 480p/i.

It can do 720p@60fps. I haven't tested it with 1080p because my TV is only 720p.

Most people have Pi hooked up to TV in living room and won't play highly competitive games there so 30fps is ok.
I tried paying GTA V on Pi locked at 30fps (because my PC can't run it at higher framerate) and it feels fine
And for some reason 30fps on TV at 2-3 meters distance feels a little bit smoother than 30fps on monitor at 50cm distance
