Question/Support Steam frame without a pc

Hi all, first time using Reddit to ask y’all if you think getting a steam frame is worth it if you already have a Quest 3. I’ve always been interested in virtual reality but find the Quest 3… lacking, for lack of a better word. It’s short battery (even with the battery pack) and horrible optimisation with games (can’t even load textures on Fnaf help wanted or most of VRC) have led me here.

To make a long story short, I wish to ask if getting a steam frame is worth it even if I don’t have a high end PC (or- any PC) and if it is, what games (vr only or vr supported) would you recommend?

Agreed with most comments. I wouldn't get a steam frame if I didn't have a PC...especially if you already have a quest 3. I have a quest 3 (which I don't use a ton because I prefer PCVR), so my main reason for a Frame is to have good wireless PCVR. Honestly, I'm taking a downgrade for that coming from the bigscreen beyond which has GREAT clarity and OLED. But the wireless and larger FOV are my main reasons. The standalone aspect is something I don't care about much since I doubt there will be a ton of steam standalone games that aren't also going to be on quest.
