I think you can already do this
Comment on New Valve trademark for 'Steam Frame', looks like we're getting new hardware
lemmylommy@lemmy.world 4 weeks agoGiven the problems SLI and crossfire had with more than one gpu, but in the same system, I doubt even valve would be able to combine different devices in a very meaningful way. The best I can imagine would be a pc rendering a game which is streamed to a steam deck, which in turn throws all its resources on FSR-like upscaling. Or, in case of a VR device that it handles interframe generation and reprojection locally on a stream rendered by a different device.

This sounds like the latency would be insane though.

I know absolutely nothing about what I’m about to say.
But I wonder if VR having 2 actual physical displays makes handoff between devices less complicated.

Perhaps it’s actually an eGPU dock for the Steam deck? Like you can connect you steam deck to it via USB4 and have better graphics performance? And it would cost less than a separate gaming PC.
