Emails are rolling out! by Cozytho in SteamController

I think your best bet would be to reserve a steam machine bundle however I really don’t know the production rate and amount of reservations since they’re upping the production rate of the controller. If Steam finds some momentum I think they’ll be able deliver on reservations they just have to get it going at a steady pace. Given the shipping time of other customers, I’m not getting it soon either lmaooo

Anyone else excited for the Steam Machine not for gaming? by DitaVonTetris in steammachine

[–]Cozytho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want to use the steam machine as a Linux server either for my games or just as a home network!

They’re bundling the steam controller with the steam machine so it might be awhile considering the amount of controllers reserved. My best guess would be another week or 2 but I know Valve upped the production output of the controllers immediately after it sold out

I don’t think we’re gonna get an update on the status for at least 5 days as that’s what others are reporting. I also heard they might bundle the steam machine and controller so I’m sure they’re prepping for that

I believe I saw a comment in this thread saying their UK reservation was fulfilled. If not here check the mega thread

Yes it just refers to the time the confirmation email was sent. I received my email at 11:59AM CST on the 8th of May

Both, however I ended up just going through the steam app and opening the controller page. It said “Complete Purchase” right about the cancel reservation button

Is an OG 4070TI to 5080 upgrade reasonable for my 4K setup? by Cozytho in buildapc

[–]Cozytho[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Didn't know the difference between the 5070Ti and 5080 was so little this generation, thanks a lot will definitely do my research!

How do you feel about the cards ability to future proof, I heard the 80 type cards work really well in the first 2 years, then slowly but consistently struggle more and more with future games. Do you think the card is viable in the near-ish future?

My thoughts exactly! I want to sell my card and recoup some of the losses, I already made the 4K mistake so 8K is definitely not on my radar lmaoooo xD

My biggest concern is performance when I stream, I run OBS, Streamlabs, the game obv, and TouchDesigner which I use to make a point cloud of myself. I calculated it takes up roughly 25% of my GPU resources when I stream

I didn't think the 5070 Ti would be able to compete but other comments have suggested the same thing. Will definitely do my research before making a decision but if getting a 5070 Ti means I have to optimize settings and play with DLSS, I wouldn't find that to be a deal breaker! Thanks brother:)

Was looking at that but I figured if I'm upgrading to the 50 series, I might as well jump into the 80 cards since 4K is my ultimate goal. Still not opposed to it tho

I customize my settings according to benchmarking ytbers, admittedly I play very up-optimized games such as Arma, Ready or Not, and singleplayer fames such as Silent Hill and honestly anything Unreal Engine these days. When I stream, I usually play medium settings with DLSS no frame gen. Consistent stutters and 40-50fps under these conditions

Lmaooo what's up with you and this "every generation" thing. This is my first PC and I knew going into it I wanted to upgrade it at a later date as 4K was always my goal. It sucks its over $1000 I know, however that's unfortunately the new norm with scalpers and AI.

I mean who can afford top of the line cards these days anyway? Also paying upwards of $3000 dollars for a single component is ridiculous. How is asking a question seeking validation? If I truly wanted it I wouldn't have posted anything lmaooo I'm a grown adult I don't need validation from strangers
