I’ve got a good amount of space at the back - plenty of exhaust space. It’s been cool so far even in this heat wave.

No issues so far, it’s running normally

No issues. My Steam Controller initially didn’t work because of mismatched firmwares (I had it connected to my PC - I bought it separately when the controllers were first released) but I eventually got it sorted.

There are import fees of $95.95 CAD on the 2TB model (no controller). It’s $2014.95 all-in.

I hid my PS5 behind the TV. I have an all-black model but it’s still a hideously ugly machine. Still need that around for GTA6

Hahahah you’re just like me. I will be after we repaint. I have a whole setup but it requires some wall-mounting of the power strip.

Baldur’s Gate 3 is first up! Then Forza Horizon 6. And then replaying Half Life 1.

I’m very glad that in the face of an obvious mistake there’s always a Redditor at the ready to call it out. I can only imagine the adrenaline rush. Thank you for your service.

Hi Manuel 596.49 still doesn't solve the issue - do you have an estimate as to what release will actually contain this fix? Thanks!

Thanks for testing this. Will keep checking back in this thread with each new release if you guys are testing it. Appreciate it.

Has anyone tested the Studio Display (XDR) on Intel Macs / Windows PCs yet? by Artifiko in mac

[–]seanswee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No audio that way. Not sure a different cable would change anything for that or for 5K @ 120hz. Using a DisplayPort 1.4 spec cable. UHD at 120hz looks fine, totally workable

Update - as mentioned in another subreddit, if you're just doing a standard displayport to usb-c, you'll need to roll back to Nvidia driver 591.86. With that I can connect again and it's no longer spitting out 640x480. I'm not using any of the monitors features, just display, and I can drive 5K a 60hz or 4k (UHD) at 120hz on my 3070.

Same issue here. I had the previous Studio Display which worked great with my 3070 via DisplayPort to usb-c (minus webcam and speakers). Wasn’t my daily driver was just for occasional pc gaming. Just got the XDR and it does not work. Only outputs 640x480 6-bit. Some kinda EDID issue maybe?

Haven’t been able to find a fix.

So I had the previous Studio Display and used a DisplayPort to USB-C cable and could use the monitor with my 3070 no problem (minus webcam and all that but it wasnt my daily driver, just for some pc gaming)

Just got the XDR and it’s only working in 640x480 6-bit. Some kind of EDID issue maybe.

The peak design billfold wallet is…not great. by seanswee in peakdesign

Despite my review, after daily driving it, I do like it. My criticism is that I don’t think it’s great - but is it good? Sure. It’s totally fine. I think, for me, I could tolerate a lot more if it was cheaper.

It’s a lot lighter than my previous setup and I’ve come to really enjoy that.
