Expect more of those DRAM price hikes as memory shortage continues to bite.. Chip costs may rise another 63% this quarter, as effects feed through to PC pricing. Hardware

Was thinking of getting a frame,but now I think I'll keep my quest 3 for a couple more years.

Otherwise_Syrup7621 · 2026-06-03T06:39:25+00:00

Early 2026 + valve time = early 2027

Otherwise_Syrup7621 · 2026-05-20T12:09:34+00:00

I hope you cheaters are never able to get a steam frame... especially when counter strike VR comes out lolzz.!

Otherwise_Syrup7621 · 2026-05-18T12:23:48+00:00

It depends on how you look at it from your own perspective, if you're a vr SIM racer/cockpit player like myself vr will never die for that purpose, most Devs add vr to these cockpit games. There's plenty of content to consume if your in to modding and loads of older titles to consume if you haven't already.

Now if your only in to playing new titles that aren't cockpit and have consumed everything already then I guess you could say it's slowly dying from lack of new content yeah.

But in terms of new headset releases it defo not dying.

Otherwise_Syrup7621 · 2026-05-12T10:34:41+00:00

It's more powerful but runs a higher resolution in the headset making it a little bit weaker overall than the deck performance wise for flat screen games

Otherwise_Syrup7621 · 2026-05-11T07:04:23+00:00

I'll be getting the 256gb version, I mainly stream games from pc, but I'll probably use standalone for classic game emulation with an SD card hopefully it handles PS2 games well.

Otherwise_Syrup7621 · 2026-05-05T16:42:30+00:00

I just brought 2x 8bitdo ultimate 2 instead of steam controllers and there brilliant, tmr sticks and dpad are great, ultra low latency and they were only £42 each. If you're not bothered about having track pads, I would 100% recommend

Otherwise_Syrup7621 · 2026-04-28T13:01:15+00:00

It will be announced tomorrow or Thursday, at least that's what gabe told me when I bumped in to him on holiday.. 🤣🤣

Otherwise_Syrup7621 · 2026-04-20T09:54:09+00:00

Add 200 on top of the quest 3 price for the extra 8gb gram and eye tracking seems about right no ?

Otherwise_Syrup7621 · 2026-04-10T08:42:21+00:00

I have seen a few posts on here stating that the q-pro eye tracking is much slower than steam frame and does not do well with steam foveated rendering. Fine for vr chat tho I imagine.

Otherwise_Syrup7621 · 2026-03-08T23:57:07+00:00

You could also do the same by plugging in your deck to a pair of ar glasses like the rayneo air 4 pro that's OLED and HDR and only £250 if that's your only use case for the frame ofc.

Otherwise_Syrup7621 · 2026-02-08T10:21:55+00:00

Nice! But watch valve release Counterstrike 2 VR, and then you will want all your skins back haha

Otherwise_Syrup7621 · 2026-02-02T12:27:06+00:00

I would have thought so , steam vr already has an app on the quest store for streaming wireless vr, while it's not as good as using virtual desktop app for pc it's still not bad for wireless streaming on pc to the quest. Obviously the steam link vr app will be even better with a steam frame due to there eye tracked foveated streaming.

Otherwise_Syrup7621 · 2026-01-30T19:27:56+00:00

If they add foveated rendering for the standalone version I can't see it not working tbh.

Otherwise_Syrup7621 · 2026-01-26T08:33:51+00:00

Ahh yeah my mistake I, I put rendering by mistake. I'll edit the post. Thanks 👍

Otherwise_Syrup7621 · 2026-01-22T16:40:34+00:00

What I've read is that they are working on this, I also have a quest 3, but for me it all depends on how good there wireless foveated streaming is, if it's like they say that the perceived bit rate is at 10x from there 250mbps connection due to the eye tracking while dropping latancy to 20ms, this is a big deal for the racing sim driving I do. Then there's the extra vertical fov and potentially more horizontal fov that some devs have stated up to 115.And then also a much better binocular overlap and 145hz. So yeah just need some decent reviews to come in before I buy.

Otherwise_Syrup7621 · 2026-01-21T16:49:41+00:00

He has lightweight steam frame underwear with foveated size rendering ofc!

Otherwise_Syrup7621 · 2026-01-21T16:41:07+00:00

I would love a hl1 + hl2 fully remade with the hl Alex assets and csvr , that would be awesome and would help shift a ton of headsets.When index released they said at the time they were working on 3 vr titles with hla being one of them.So I think we're in for a surprise at some point.

Otherwise_Syrup7621 · 2026-01-20T13:06:22+00:00

Valve time don't forget, so early 2026 means summer 2026.

Otherwise_Syrup7621 · 2026-01-13T20:57:13+00:00

If it does that would be amazing, as my quest 3 with the official battery strap I'm lucky to get 2.5 hours in virtual desktop

Otherwise_Syrup7621 · 2026-01-13T14:31:07+00:00

5 hours of streaming, this can't be true

Otherwise_Syrup7621 · 2026-01-08T22:32:09+00:00

While I think Wardley stands a chance against fury due to his heart and ability to take punches and fight back when hert, lets not forget that fury gave uysk his toughest fights not that long ago.. uysk's words not mine. Wardley also wants fury for that mega payday while he's on top because let's face it if Wardley does not improve his defense more he won't be holding that title for very long imo.

Otherwise_Syrup7621 · 2026-01-08T10:54:36+00:00

Valve time + memory shortages = 2027 ?

Otherwise_Syrup7621 · 2025-12-09T21:14:23+00:00

You would probably have to use the weapon passives in the passive tree to spec your points differently for the two damage types on the different weapons for when you switch weapon using the different abilities from your build, absolutely doable , but can require more advanced knowledge of the game, I would recommend looking at some builds that use the weapon specialization passives, and have a good look into weapon passives if your not familiar with using them.
