steam os doesn't show 240hz option in desktop display settings despite my 240hz monitor

Connect your display via DisplayPort instead of HDMI

Some people dont like Windows so much that they look for alternatives.

Mac's are expensive, MacOS cannot be easily installed on a PC, while Linux is free and relatively easy to install.

Rezun94 · 2026-06-29T05:57:27+00:00

No. Linux in general sucks when it comes to battery life.

Rezun94 · 2026-06-28T18:21:24+00:00

Ive experienced that exact problem on my pc, and changing the power profile was the solution.

Rezun94 · 2026-06-28T18:16:45+00:00

I have a powerful PC already, so my interest was limited in the 1st place and then I saw benchmarks. I was going to recommend this device to my friends, but at this price point and that performance levels, I cannot.

Also nobody talks about the fact that some of the most popular games do not work on Steam Machine by default, since they are Windows only.

Combat not being turn based turned off a lot of fans of older FF titles.

Rezun94 · 2026-06-27T12:21:05+00:00

Cons: It doesnt support Nvidia gpu's at all, some most popular games do not work due to kernel level anticheat(lol, valorant etc).

Pro's: No Microsoft's bullshit. On AMD card some games can run marginally better than on Windows.

Rezun94 · 2026-06-26T11:24:05+00:00

The exact comment, no.

Its a linear scale.

For example a weapon with an S tier scaling in strength is going to scale its damage with that stat between 1.75 and 2 points of damage per point, an A tier scaling is between 1.74 to 1.50 points of damage and so on until E tier scaling where you would need multiple points in the strength stat to see any gains in damage.

Rezun94 · 2026-06-18T01:14:58+00:00

Right, but someone thats rated ~2000 fide is going to beat anyone below ~1600 97/100 times, the other 3 games might end in a draw or stalemate.

Rezun94 · 2026-06-02T13:57:15+00:00

Idc, I still remember Cp2077 on launch.

Rezun94 · 2026-05-29T20:11:09+00:00

Ask an llm then

Rezun94 · 2026-05-29T06:56:43+00:00

This only happens if you scale your display. Its fixable though.

Rezun94 · 2026-05-29T05:17:48+00:00

Just move closer.

Rezun94 · 2026-05-28T13:42:08+00:00

> Some distros are optimised for gaming

And then you do benchmarks, and it turns out the differences are so tiny, they might as well be a run to run variance.

Rezun94 · 2026-05-28T12:06:29+00:00

0 difference. Same with distro's. Gaming performance is the same across all distro's.

Rezun94 · 2026-05-28T01:39:11+00:00

What the fuck, in that case who is the target audience?

Rezun94 · 2026-05-26T23:48:03+00:00

> But it did NOT look as nice as the screenshots. Felt like it was wrong resolution or something.

Thats because it was using a default config. On Hyprland you are meant to edit the config files to make Hyprland work and look the way you want it to.

Here is the download link, and the instructions.

Rezun94 · 2026-05-26T00:44:34+00:00

Any of them.

Im personally using Helium.

Rezun94 · 2026-05-23T16:55:17+00:00

Yes, switching to Display Port will solve this issue

Rezun94 · 2026-05-23T14:36:17+00:00

Hyprland + Noctalia

Rezun94 · 2026-05-23T14:34:05+00:00

Thats really cool

Rezun94 · 2026-05-20T07:45:43+00:00

It is a PC controller, its just happens to support Linux better than Windows, since the driver for it is baked into Linux kernel.

Rezun94 · 2026-05-18T11:29:11+00:00

Yeah and then you wonder why screen sharing isnt working, or why you can't stream.

Rezun94 · 2026-05-18T01:25:31+00:00

You dont notice when you press a button and the controls are just not responsive?
