Google has finally launched their partnership with Steam, which will provide support for running Games on ChromeOS. This time, the Steam program on Chrome OS has just entered the beta version, Sunday (06/11).
For ChromeOS users, now they can directly play a collection of Games on Steam. Especially for those who have long wanted to play Games on Chrome OS.
However, it is likely that users will get a number of minor problems related to its performance, because Steam is still in a beta version. Of course the performance will be perfect when it has been released in the Stable version.
Google itself said that they are in the process of perfecting the system, so that later it can run Games on Steam with maximum performance.
So, there are some users who ask which versions of Chromebooks get this support? Google itself has provided the same support for Chromebooks users with a minimum specification.
