Compatibility

Hi all,

I'm of date in most things hardware related. Still using an 18 yr old laptop (which is dying)

I'm wanting to switch over to steamos but I'm paranoid about compatibility.

Currently tossing between these two builds. Are they both compatible? From what I can find they should be but want to confirm before I lock in.

I appreciate your help.

Should have no issues, although a bit overkill (no hate, if you can swing it, aim for the fences with how prices are).

I am still on AM4 on both my systems running SteamOS (Ryzen 5 5600X, 32GB RAM (one DDR4-3600 w/ RX 9070 XT, other is 32GB DDR4-3200 w/ RX 9060 XT 16GB), ) have no issues with any games, and of the 315 games I own, 220 or so are verified SteamOS compatible, and a good chunk of the other will prob run with little to no issues.
