It&#8217;s the gold standard that even the likes of SteamOS try to emulate&#8230; so we&#8217;ve got full-fat Windows 11 on all of our handheld gaming computers (unless explicitly stated). Whatever you can do on your gaming PC you can do here. With full support for Steam, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.xbox.com\/en-gb\/xbox-game-pass\/pc-game-pass\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">XBOX Game Pass<\/a>, GeForce Now, Epic Games, EA, Radeon Games, GOG Galaxy and many, many, many more. You won&#8217;t have an issue running your library of games and adding to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Other Operating Systems<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You can also install other operating systems if you are familiar with the process and the potential risks it involves. While it is unlikely you can break the hardware, you would likely need to uninstall Windows, install another OS and configure it. Also do expect some bugs and compatibility issues as often these other operating systems are work in progress. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you would like to try a Steam OS-like user interface and operating system for example, then we can suggest <a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/HoloISO\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">HoloISO<\/a>. Please read the requirements, and known bugs and set up instructions first. Please note that we do not provide support for other operating systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Retro Gaming<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you fancy delving into the past you can play your retro game ROMs, that you definitely own! You can use emulator frontends such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.retroarch.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">RetroArch<\/a> or individual emulators such as <a href=\"https:\/\/rpcs3.net\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">RPCS3<\/a> for PlayStation 3.
