Im so jealous of his sick Bioshock room

[apreslin]

@Nathie - The "Steam Link Passthrough" section doesn't talk about passthrough, it only talks about an easier way to get to the Quest menu by tapping the side of the headset

[Plasstyre]

Loving your Big Daddy statue and the rest of your Bioshock memorabilia. Shows you really care about one of the best series out there.

[Walawalacookie]

Thanks Nathie! You helped me fix my sound issue!

6:04 what if i don't have a "steam streaming speakers" or even an "oculus streaming speakers" or something similar. i have only my stereo and headset

[FifthDream]

Thanks for this. I just got back into VR gaming and got a Quest S3 and almost entirely forgot how to set the thing up to work with Steam. Thanks for reminding me!

[tooreosonecup]

Don’t have my quest 3 yet but I’m thankful this is available!

[HenshinAsset]

I honestly thought you had to go through the Oculus on the PC to connect to Steam VR. Thanks so much! I never would have known otherwise.

[jackisboom]

This is not working with my Quest 3, i followed all of your steps but my laptop won't come up to connect to

[TheNewBloodDan]

I love being able to change refresh rate on the fly!

3:15 bro named his wifi to Big Daddy Internet💀

[BananaB]

I followed a lot of tutorials and done everything but my vr never finds my pc. I can only play steam link on cable. any suggestions for how to fix ?

[EclipsedEquinox]

I bought a Quest 3S and its arriving in a few weeks, so ima keep this video for later.

[DKFelx]

THANK YOU SO MUCH, i couldnt run my steam link app after i heard your tips, i just needed to factory reset the headset :)

[sugarmess_vr]

What's the game on 6:42 - with a flying module??😀

[joe-D]

would i be able to use steam link with a wired connection between my quest and PC. im using a guest wifi network so it wont let me pair my device.

[legendaryshin]

Markiplier may of found a spider, EddieVR found a scorpion.

[Maskkunai]

do you need to charge your quest 3 if u are conected wired to your pc?

[TheTopwaves]

What were all those games in the beginning of the video? Never seen half of them before, but they looked great

[stevenwest]

This is not correct, Steam Link doesn't connect via a Router. The headset goes dead when you open a game after giving an error about being connected via a router.
