I'm reviving mine with new hardware. I've redesigned some of the internal shrouds, but I was wondering whether Valve had shared the model files for them? It would save me countless hours of work.

I hope that Steam OS 3 comes out soon as an ISO so we can use it on the Steam machines, I put Pop OS on it a while ago but I kinda want to go back to Steam OS again.

Speaking of the deck, did any of you peeps get one? How about the Index? I love seeing how refined some of the technology we helped beta test has now become.

My Steam Machine is still going strong, about to update windows 7 to windows 10. Hold my steam controller!

Mine is still working. I did add an SSD, dualbooted windows 10, and use the OG 1TB Hybrid as storage. My desktop is an i9-9900K with 64GB, a 2080TI, Liquid Cooling, and 20TB of storage, so the steam machine feels underpowered at this point; but it has aged rather well. I'm tempted to put a 4th gen i7 into it as an upgrades. As far as the GPU, I wonder if there is any way to upgrade it. If anyone else has done it let me know! Its had a place under my 55" 120hz 4K TV in the living room for quite sometime now. I love the steam controller, I also use a Roccat Sova lapboard for keyboard and mouse on the couch. I still have the original crate, I often take this machine and place it on top of the crate. I even took it to Intel Lanfest in Colorado a few times. I had a little Gabe Newell shrine joke. It had a little glowing fountain, a picture of Gabe, ram sticks, and a de-lidded hard drive. Got lots of laughs, hugs, and comments every LAN I took the steam machine and Shrine to.

MY doesn't want to start. thankfully I still have the orginial OS so I might be able to get it to work again

I still use mine. I kept it in the crate most of the time. It is more of a trophy/showpiece.

Does anyone still use theirs? My original SSD died so I just put in a new one, and it seems to be playing games better. Just wondering how everyone's boxes are doing? Any one sell theirs?
20 Aug, 2015 @ 2:38pm 
I saw someone had their system on eBay, I believe they took it down, are people allowed and now selling their systems?

I'm having the same problem DBones. Looks like the controller layout has changed, it still works but like you said, it is now going to be more difficult to play with a beta controller.
17 May, 2015 @ 4:42pm 
So it looks like they removed support for the beta Steam controller. I can't even access the old controller menu, and it seems like the buttons are all screwy as well. Sad day. Playing games from my couch just got a lot more difficult.

The video card died in my machine. Where can I get help with that?
7 Jun, 2014 @ 11:19am 
Witcher 2 doesn't work on the controllor yet... hopefully a fix will come soon tm
31 Mar, 2014 @ 2:39pm 
Anyone having troubles with the controller update?

12 Mar, 2014 @ 8:11pm 
Just for a Valve survey regarding the Steam controller, anyone else?
12 Mar, 2014 @ 5:38pm 
just got 2 discounts for a random game called pixle piracy, glich or intentional?
7 Jan, 2014 @ 11:11am 
DId anyone else not get an email from Atlassian?
22 Dec, 2013 @ 7:49pm 
bastion works ^ ^
22 Dec, 2013 @ 6:50pm 
bastion works fine for me
19 Dec, 2013 @ 6:06pm 
Has anyone gotten Bastion to work? I get tot the main menu but none of the buttons work
19 Dec, 2013 @ 6:41am 
Check your libraries! You should now have Ricochet!!!!!!!!!!!

And some other Valve games, but mainly Ricochet!!!!!!!!!!!
18 Dec, 2013 @ 8:10pm 
18 Dec, 2013 @ 1:30pm 
You should have gotten an email to sign up for Atlassian.
18 Dec, 2013 @ 11:29am 
So, since Valve wants us to make bug reports, where can we do that? I found one for SteamOS, but the beta website takes me to a Atlassian log in when you click on "Make a Report".

Would i be able to use a wireless headset?
18 Dec, 2013 @ 6:28am 
so I think today is a good day to start setting up the controller configs so it actually works in more games because the fact that it doesn't is rather annoying
18 Dec, 2013 @ 2:11am 
Any one else having a hard time using the controller? I've only tried a few games and I was having a terrable time using the pads. Ill keep at it!
18 Dec, 2013 @ 2:09am 
Got mine tonight! I live in Fairbanks AK (Northern most US City). At the Fedex office they told me that another guy recived one I wonder who it is? Contact me on STEAM and Ill give you a LAN Party invite!
17 Dec, 2013 @ 5:41pm 
Just got my Steam Machine! Unboxing video HERE!
17 Dec, 2013 @ 4:42pm 
The guy as he handed me my steam box "Is there a live cheetah in here or something!?"
"Or something," I replied with a grin.

If its not linux compatible, it wont work without dual booting. And skyrim is not linux compatible. http://store.steampowered.com/app/72850/
17 Dec, 2013 @ 12:44pm 
Anyone know if Skyrim works on the steam machine? I want to know if I should buy it now or not..
17 Dec, 2013 @ 10:15am

I am beating myself about the face and head for not writing down my router password. Now I have to reset the damned thing but I'm too lazy tonight so just gonna see if I have enough ethernet cable to reach the bloody thing.. Geez, had this thing for 3 hours now and can't get past the setup!
16 Dec, 2013 @ 2:49pm 
Have we figured out if they really do have different system specs or are they all the same?
16 Dec, 2013 @ 2:19pm 
Still waiting on my box, tomorrow can't get here fast enough!
15 Dec, 2013 @ 10:26am 
I had invited several others. We'll see as more join the group.

they will get over it eventually.
14 Dec, 2013 @ 9:47pm 
If we post in Steam Universe the post will get burried by posts of people attacking that we get this and they don't. Frankly that whole group is moderated well enough for us to post there yet. Most of the helpful stuff we say will be pushed back pages time it is posted.
14 Dec, 2013 @ 8:42pm 
Let them get mad. Everyone is gonna be butthurt for a while that we got this.
14 Dec, 2013 @ 4:39pm 
if your in san antonio you can stop by and look at mine. :)
14 Dec, 2013 @ 4:13pm 
Much thanks for the invite! I'm stuck in Texas for the holidays and won't get home until after the new year. Looking forward to living vicariously through you guys until then :)
