It has not yet confirmed, but the rumor is that as of the 15th of this month the virtual reality platform “Windows Mixed Reality” released last month after the update ” Fall Creators ” has support for the headphones on Steam.
The new headset proposes to introduce a different way of interacting with your environment in Windows 10 and with the applications in it. The rumor does not confirm the need for a UWP application to boot from a home environment, but it will probably be indispensable.
Rumor? Microsoft and Valve will begin support for Windows Mixed Reality
The program “Fall Creators” seeks to attract developers to the platform using universal applications. But get ready: you’ll need a powerful machine to be able to use Steam VR games with the WMR headphones.

For headphones to run at 90 Hz within Microsoft’s High-End configuration, an Intel Core i5-4590 or AMD Ryzen 5 1400 processor is required. A video card will also be essential for that purpose. Also, the company itself indicates the GTX 960 or GTX 1050, from Nvidia, or RX 460 or RX 560 from AMD for such configurations.
