Valve quietly retracts Steam Machine 4K60 claim as specs update rolls out
TL;DR Summary
Valve updated the Steam Machine page to replace the earlier claim of '4K gaming at 60 FPS with FSR' with 'Up to 4K gaming with FSR 4.1,' a change made without notice amid heightened scrutiny of the device; observers say the machine effectively targets 1080p with upscaling and that some titles may still require lowering settings to maintain smooth framerates, with Valve not explaining the rationale for the update.
