Valve VR headset Steam Frame earns points for repairability, cooling fan is the problem
Valve\'s VR headset Steam Frame is generally designed to be easy to repair, but replacing its cooling fan requires a complicated teardown, a report said. iFixit cited the fan’s deep placement inside the device as the biggest drawback, requiring removal of optical modules, cooling parts and cables. Other parts were easier to service, though the battery lacks pull tabs and controller joysticks are soldered. Parts availability is also an issue.
