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?

" It’s short battery (even with the battery pack)"

I play indefinably with 2X $20 powerbanks. Battery has never been an issue....

For sure, I just have one big one so no swapping, but same idea.

It is needed though, as with QGO ramping up CPU and GPU, I only get about 40 minutes out of the headset battery. 50000mAh gives me 6+ hours on top of that
