A new Valve game console leak just appeared, and the specs beat the Steam Deck

Benchmark results from a device called Valve Fremont have just appeared online, suggesting that a new Steam OS game console is in the works. This isn’t the first time we’ve heard about the Fremont Valve (Gordon Fremont?) console project, but it’s the first time we’ve seen a record of the hardware that could be in the machine, and the custom AMD chip in this leak is significantly more powerful than the one in the Steam Deck.

Valve first attempted to produce its own Steam machines around a decade ago, but with limited game support, they failed to take off. However, now that Valve has nailed game support and a smooth OS with the Steam Deck, which still tops our best handheld buying guide, it looks as though the firm has looked at making a more powerful device that could plug into your TV.
