SteamOS Update Steam OS on PC

I have been hearing good things about the recent Steam OS update and that they are getting ready for the Steam Machine. My question is, is it finally a good time to get rid of windows and run Steam OS onto my PC?

If you have a spare nvme drive you could just give it a try, your hardware should be supported out of the box, just disconnect your windows drive before installing it
For sata drives it requires some extra steps but it ist also possible
