The requirements are as follows 4-bit Intel or AMD-powered PC with at least 4GB RAM, 500GB or larger hard drive, and an Nvidia GPU. For saves a 4GB minimum USB is required. My pc has 4gb ram, 250gb solid state and a 250gb seta drive and a 2gb Nvidia graphic card so no isue there.
The install took all I had when it came to installing so it would run (seriously hackers only!) subject to change before release of course.
Steam os is much the same as the application we've gotten to know so well, there are two differences that are quite nice, you won't have to go through windows and you won't have to worry about sharing your computers guts with windows, hooking a controller up is quite easy as well, I forgo to mention the dedicated web browser. It all looks like it's gonna be eye candy!
The future. Steam plans to release an app for watching netflix, hulu and others also gaming support for linux will go from zero to hero (couldn't help myself).
So if you're thinking of building a new pc... although steam os may not be complete, it has some amazing potential like running on an android device and a flash drive with a screen but I'm not holding my breath.
