Seems legit; looks like someone made their own OpenVR/OpenXR to WinlatorXR XrAPI layer maybe?

Steam Frame will of course always run a bit better for Alyx for many reasons including RAM, but perhaps Alyx on Quest 3 standalone is also something that might be playable

Or Quest 4

* **Country**

[USA]

* **Budget**

[around 1000$]

* **Are you open to refurbs/used options? **

[No]

* **Screen size**

[ideally something smaller but it doesn't really matter as long as the other requirements are met]

* **Weight limit**

[Any]

* **Purpose**

[Gaming/College]

* **Form factor**

[Standard]

k* **Intended usage**

[I play mostly 2d games , the most intensive flatscreen game I play is Fortnite , ideally I'd like to get something that can run the game at 60fps with lumen/rtx on , as my current 3050 laptop can't handle it. I would also want something capable of running alyx at medium settings 90hz]

* **Desired battery life**

[At least 6 hours , battery life is the biggest priority as I will be using it during my classes. It will likely mostly just be fairly lightweight stuff like docs and whatever's required for my econ degree.]

* **Please list, in order of most important to least important, the priority between Size, Weight, Performance, Battery life**

[battery life, performance, size]

* **Info/Requirements**

[usbc charging would be nice but it's not a requirement. I would also like something with a decent wifi chip so I could stream pcvr to my quest]

Looking for lightweight linux distros that work well in UTM , preferably with steam pre installed. I'd prefer a smaller distro as I don't have a ton of space.

I'm planning on running steam in the container. I have had success with running steam in a utm container running a windows 7 vm , but I'm looking for a more lightweight installation
