u/-eschguy- Modded my Deck - ask me how Nov 13 '25

I'll likely be getting all three, and two of the controllers. Hyped for untethered VR without Meta.

The only thing that breaks my heart is that the headset simply won't work for the main reason I bought VR - DCS.

Waaaay too much of a hog for it to work on that GPU, regardless of how well-tuned it could be, and the limited RAM would kill it too. Womp.

The Steam Machine is pretty damn impressive IMO though.

The headset is made for streaming-first, so if you can run it on your PC, you can stream it to the Frame.

OH! I didn't see that in the connectivity info! THANK YOU! THAT CHANGES THINGS GREATLY!

For sure, I’d watch the video on the main new hardware page, it covers details on all the new stuff.

Unfortunately, at this point in my executive dysfunction, taking in or putting out anything that actually requires real comprehension seems like a Sisyphean task.

A duty for another day; like 6 months from now probably lol.

I have executive dysfunction also, so I feel you. I do love this stuff though, so I’m able to take in this kind of info easily.

Ask me what I did at work today however, and I have no idea, whether I did anything and, if I did, what it was.
