quick mockup of a skin for the controller. I can already tell that the glossy finish is going to drive me up the wall, so a skin might have to be put on.

Maybe @Orbital-Fetus the GAWD can cook something up.

Btw I just got my steam controller in the mail. It's cool but feels kind of cheap. I think the Xbox one controller is still goat pc game controller. Feels kinda cheap. Triggers are mad flimsy.

MAYBE the Orange and Blue Portal circles on each of the circles on the steam controller will be a good look.

It looks like it might just be averaging those scores. If Crystal Disk info gives you 530/530 or so at peak then you should be straight.

The random read and writes look low, but I have never used the samsung software myself. Can't speak for it apart from what it appears that shyt is doing.

How do you use crystal disk? I can't seem to find the benchmarking tool, or how to start it

Here's what I got. I don't know if this is good or bad. Thanks for you help, by the way :salute:

Getting better results than I am. It looks like your read and write and where they are supposed to be. What is the quoted random 4K read/write on the samsung 850 series?

@daze23 how long did it take for you to get comfortable with it? I am willing to give it some time, but it appears some people are just so put off with it initially.

I might actually use it for Fallout as my first game tested :russ:

took a few days. you just got to force yourself to play a game with it. at first I was all over the place, but now I'm used to the sensitivity. gyro aiming is dope too. basically I use the pad for big motions, and the gyro for finer aiming

it works best with games that allow you to use the controller and mouse at the same time. if not, I usually use a WASD config

Yeah I think your SSD is fine. I am surprised you are not tripping about not having a M.2 Samsung Pro...that shyt is like 1,500 read/write :merchant:

one day. I'm happy with a 500gb ssd right now though. I can play multiple games on it now (everything is stored on my 6tb, and I use steammover to move over games I'm currently playing. I have 4.06tb of games right now :wow:)
