Impressive little gadget!
5 Stars
Impressive little gadget!
Have mine connected to WiFi 5G with Asus RT-N66U router and it works great! No lags in frames or anything. Using the screen overlay it shows that it's running the game @60fps, this fluctuates 30-60fps depending on what's going on in the game. Ran the connection test the result was 9% potential latency loss which I thought was too minimal to worry about. It might be an issue for FPS games which I'd never play hahaWent with wireless since I'm a techy, *cough* nerd, and like to be with the latest tech... wired is soooooo yesteryear :PPairing with DS3 controller was a bit more complex than it says on their wiki... it is not plug n play wireless even after the update to the latest firmware. It did work wired but this is not the function I wanted since my TV is far from where I'd be sitting to play. In my case I had to go with the beta build and wait for install/reboot. After that the DS3 controller was plug n play wireless, connect the DS3 controller with USB to Steam Link and disconnect once detected and done wireless DS3 controller as if connected to the PC. FINALLY AFTER 30min of searching the web and reading different guides and checking YouTube that were outdated (all said wired only!)... good thing I'm an IT guy SMH The one star less is due to this...Played Kingdoms of Amalur Reckoning, old game I know but it's the one I'm playing at the moment, and it looked great. Mostly play retro or older games... also catching up with my queue as I work full-time and have responsibilities. Sometimes being an adult sucks! lol Going to try the remastered edition of Darksiders aks Warmastered Edition and see how it handles it as it was re-rendered to be in ~4K. Might also reply The Evil Within and see how it handles as well.However, was disappointed that it picks up the resolution of your monitor and that is what's used in the stream on the TV. My monitor is pretty old relic with 1680x1050 LCD (AOC 2019Sw1) whereas my TV is a 4K smart (LG 43UH6100). So I'm playing 16:10 on a 16:9 screen >_> I'd have to see if increasing the resolution on Win10 would affect the stream resolution output by Steam link or if this is strictly dependent on the monitor. I've checked their FAQs and this is a limitation that I wasn't aware of... guess it's finally time to upgrade the monitor XD Nope.... couldn't put off checking while wrapping this up and changing the Win10 resolutio to 1920x1080 affects Steam Link as well while streaming PC and in game resolution change to 1920x1080 gets Steam Link running the game with this resolution at 60fps. Was going to upload a screen shot from in game with the screen overlay FPS and resolution but Steam doesn't capture that info... Did not drop 1 star since there is a work around... it is a streaming device and doesn't handle the resolution native.Got this on the Cyber Week sales for $19 and think it was a steal... might of paid the full price knowing it was going to be this good.

Si tienes una PC capaz de jugar a 1080p (1920x1080) o si es menor la resolución eso se verá en tu pantalla
El steam link será capaz de duplicar lo que se ve en tu computadora a tu televisión
Horas de diversión con tus amigos en tu sillón

Pros:
-Para configurarlo tardé menos de 2 minutos
-Se pueden usar varios mandos (más abajo)
-Big Picture (la interfaz de steam a la hora de usar el link) es amigable y facil de usar
-Se pueden jugar juegos que no son de Steam (Battlefield, Fifa etc.)
-Es bastante pequeño y tiene buen diseño
-Se han añadido configuraciones de audio (5.1 Stereo etc.)
-Es capaz de prender la computadora remótamente (Wake on LAN)
-Puertos Usb (uno en el costado derecho muy accesible)
-Conexión Bluetooth
-Wi fi* (Se recomienda conectar el link con un cable ethernet para jugar sin problemas)

Contras:
-No tiene botones físicos (si crashea tendrás que desconectarlo de la corriente)
-Aún Steam no tiene aplicaciones de entretenimiento (Netflix, Spotify, Youtube) he leído que ya hay un SDK del steam link, así que esperemos que pronto haya
-A la hora de navegar en el Escritorio (sí se puede) usando el control es incómodo e impreciso (por eso uso Controller Companion)
-No todos los juegos son compatibles, la mayoría si (el foro del steam link es muy activo y pueden ayudarte)
-El audio le falta mucho los bajos (pero cuando juegas con amigos es lo que menos te preocupa)

Lista de Controles probados por mí
-Xbox 360 Alábrico
-Xbox 360 Inalámbrico (Se requiere Receptor Inalámbico para PC)
-Play Station 3 (Sólo alámbrico)
-Play Station 4 Funciona por bluetooth (inalámbrico)
-Wii U Pro Controller Funciona por bluetooth (inalámbrico)

Juegos Probados
-Battleblock Teather
-Awesomenauts
-Nidhogg
-Castle Crashers
-Dead Space
-Gta V
-Left 4 Dead 2
-Gang Beast
-Limbo
-Super Meat Boy
-Guacamelee
-Portal 2

El Steam Link tiene un muy buen futuro, es un dispositivo excelente para tener en la tele e invitar amigos
y cumple los1080p a 60fps

El equipo llegó súper maltratado, con manchas y con grasa de dedos. La verdad no me dió nada de confianza pero tengo que admitir que funcionó bien y de momento no me ha dado problemas. Recomendado si tienes una tv viejita
