Steam already knows my hardware, it'd be cool if they let me know what I'm lacking Posted by krutopridumal

Kabirdb on March 14, 2026 8:52 am It’s simply not enough. Like genuinely they won’t know unless they run the game in your build specifically. There are way many factors even just beyond this specification. For example, I also have 16 GB ram. But it’s only 2400Mhz ram. Now imagine if I had 3200Mhz ram. That’s why the only verification is for steam deck and even that is inaccurate because of what people accepts as “playable”.
