    Steam+ Deals Mega Thread (All PC Gaming Deals)

    So if you get BL: The Pre-Sequal for $4.80 from the triple pack bundle from having the other two, how much does the season pass then cost if you buy that through the pre-sequal & season pass bundle?

    I bet if you set all the RAM timings and voltage settings to manual in your Bios you could get all 4 sticks to work. More than likely it's just the spd of one set not playing nice with the other. That was sort of a lazy answer on Gskill's part.

    It probably is, but 5 years ago it probably cost as much as that whole Steam machine. I thought we were all supposed to be cheap asses here? ;)

    Fallout 4: PS4/Xbox One vs Budget PC (Core i3 4130/GTX 750 Ti) Frame-Rate Test https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iipDWbd6HNg If you can spend more on a gaming PC by all means do so, but I still think it's a deal for what it is, and it would be hard to beat DIY.

    This Steam machine config looks pretty hot to me: http://www.cyberpowerpc.com/saved/1HFYU6 i3, Geforce 950, 8GB RAM , 1TB HD for $417 - $100 MIR - $45 if you take the controller out = $272 Even if you have to buy a Windows key its a better deal than what the Alpha is currently going for, plus...

    If you're comfortable doing the upgrade work this is a pretty good deal at the current $409: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B014QVM2KO That leaves about $300 for the video card and power supply, which should (mostly) cover something like a Radeon 290/390 or Geforce 970 and the PS to push it...

    They are OK if you can get one for less than $300 and set expectations for performance accordingly. I wouldn't get higher than the i3 model since the video chip is the real bottleneck and not upgradable. A full desktop & upgraded video card is really the way to go if that's an option.

    I e-mailed them early Monday and mine came this morning. Glad they are coming through, I had high expectations after how awesomely they handled Red Faction: Guerrilla and was feeling pretty let down more than anything.

    You had to have the franchise pack, and only that pack, bought through steam, and not anywhere else, except GOG apparently, and not the same content piecemeal, except again for GOG which only required the main games and season pass. Then the PR guy said it was merely a technical reason as to why...

    If he's just the PR guy then it's probably not his call, and about the only way he can make this worse on himself is to pin the delay or denial on his bosses. I'm getting more irritated and less confident as this goes on that they're going to make this right. But I'll still probably buy DS3...

    Personally I'd just like to play through the game again with the new version. I'm irritated by how this is being handled by Nordic, especially after how well the Red Faction update was handled, but a lot of the negativity is just a bit overboard. The dev posted that they intend to make good on...

    Don't shutdown your PC with the Steam client still running. Any time Steam doesn't close properly you'll be waiting on that "Updating Steam" window the next time you open it.

    The Syber line isn't bad, you can manage some decent configs: http://www.sybergaming.com/products/steam-machine.aspx Still needs Windows though. The Link is saddled with a 10/100 nic and with the effort I've put into my home network in preparation specifically for Steam streaming I'm angrily...

    Steam Machine finally available for pre order $449.99 - $749.99

    Getting this machine without Windows is not a good deal. Getting this machine with a processor faster than the i3 pushing the same 960m GPU is not a good deal. The base Alienware Alpha with the same hardware that has been available since last winter for $330 or less at times has been a good deal.

    Flickering lines issue

    Not vsync then, might need the RMA.

    Flickering lines issue

    The flickering lines (horizontal?) sound like vsync is disabled. There is likely an in game setting to enable it, as well as an override setting in your video card control panel. Specks and dots might be a hardware defect, or it might be the video player or decoders you're using.

    Whats going to happen to our GFWL games?

    Fallout 3 will work on Windows 7 and you can use your previous saves. I recently reinstalled it and it initially complained about not having a certain .dll I had to get by installing the GFWL software but I didn't have to do anything with GFWL after that.
