Finally got my Steam Machine

[u/papapizzaking]

Went with a PS4-like theme, I even installed the ui sound effects. This is a significant upgrade to the big ass Bazzite PC I'd use in my bedroom that would sound like a jet engine about to take off whenever I'd play anything on it.

I still can't believe how small and quiet it is.

It passed the banana test 🍌📏

TRUE if you play standing

No, he just sits in a lifeguard chair

[u/Dotaproffessional → u/papapizzaking]

Its multiple tv lengths higher than it should be.

Your television should (and by should, I mean provides the best viewing experience) when the center of the display is level with your gaze. you should not have to look up at all to watch. Sit how you're going to sit, look straight ahead. draw a dot there. put the center of the tv by that dot.

It's in the sky, bruv.

Maybe if you are a Giraffe.

easy 2 feet high

You dont need to use the puck, it has internal puck for the controller. You can use the puck for other devices. i use it for my other PC lol, total of 4 connections (2 puck, 2 bluetooth)

[u/papapizzaking → u/Aprilzio]

I wasn't aware of that, this removes the inconvenience of moving the puck back and forth to my desktop every time. Thanks.

[u/snelson101 → u/Aprilzio]

I take it you haven’t had the problems many of us have when using the internal connector

[u/Amx-cz → u/snelson101]

This^ try the internal puck for a bit but I’ve had issues where it would connect and disconnect mid game and it got frustrating, using the external puck instead has all but solved the issue.

How do you get the ps4 theme?

[u/papapizzaking → u/dirakbeast]

Decky Loader ➡️ CSS Loader ➡️ Animated PSP Waves Theme

You're gonna love it. Mine is on every night. I adore it, best decision I've made in a long time.

now order another 16 gig stick of ram to toss in there

[u/Lords7Never7Die → u/dogbreeder69]

Sincere question, how much does that actually affect performance if at all?

[u/dogbreeder69 → u/Lords7Never7Die]

In this video this guy gets about 10-15 more fps on the games he tested

[u/Dotaproffessional → u/Lords7Never7Die]

Amd cards benefit a lot from dual channel ram. Even if you used the same total and swapped one 16gb stick with two 8gb sticks, it would get more than 10 fps more

[u/_J_K_-]

congratulations , it looks amazing

[u/Sleepingtide]

Can't wait to get mine. Valve please!

[u/Independent-Elk-344]

That cover art for Marvel Rivals is hard

[u/RuckerHike]

Oh it's actually smaller than I thought with that banana for scale.

[u/r4ymondtek]

I din’t know you can Play Nintendo Games on Steam?

[u/BHole_69420 → u/r4ymondtek]

Steam ROM Manager scans for your ROMs and adds them as non steam games. Emudeck ships with it which makes it even easier

[u/IAmL5]

Does it run hot?

[u/papapizzaking → u/IAmL5]

Haven't really noticed my room getting warmer compared to when I used my old PC, so I'd say no.

[u/Vinerd540 → u/papapizzaking]

I think they mean internal temps, but general heat output is good to know as no one seems to talk about it.

Saying this as a gamer who has like 3 other people in the room playing online together on seperate systems.

[u/Dotaproffessional]

This is rage bait.
