I got a place on the 512GB with Controller list, and got an email a few days after they started. I ordered it on Friday the 3rd and got it today on Thursday the 9th. The tracking codes were all over the place and gave different estimates depending which branch of each company I used. Steam claimed it was shipped when the courier said they hadn’t got it so I was worried for a few days. But this morning Royal Mail (UK customer) sent me an email saying it would arrive today, while GLS said it would arrive tomorrow.
Safe to say I’m happy to have it now and be playing games!
There’s no reason why a steam machine would be inmune to software/driver/hardware issues. I mean, it’s basically a laptop in a different form factor and laptops hace issues too.
Nobody said that
I think the confusion here is that you see gamers as nerds who all want ray tracing and photorealism
They aren’t. Some are
But steam directly tests that hardware in steam os, so less likelihood of issues. Also, not all hardware is compatible with each other when building either
I’m literally playing nfsu 2 and signalis. I also think ray tracing is dumb af and we’re nowhere near phitorealism. So no, you’re dead wrong.
However, I also want to play the latest RE and Control Resonant when it comes out. Not to mention that I play these games on a 1440p 170hz screen and would like to upgrade to alienware’s new ultrawide oled. Something like the steam machine would not be enough for that.
Issues like what, exactly? Unless you have a pc that’s over a decade old, you won’t have any “hardware issues”.
There’s this thing called hwpartpicker. You should use it. Hw incompatibility isn’t rocket science.
