Launching a game means that the entire Steam Window fades and it will become entirely unusable until the game starts. That is not a separate startup window, thats just an embedded element inside the main one. If you accidentally click outside, the game startup gets canceled.
It is a bit more than mildly frustrating when Im waiting on the Vulkan shaders for BFV for like half an hour to process.
Or even an m2drive, even faster load times in game.
M2 drives as in an SSD connected to an M.2 slot? That’s the way to connect SSD drives internally, so “get an SSD” basically means “connect an SSD drive to your M.2 slot”. There’s nothing like “M2 drives are even faster than SSDs”.
an “SSD” can be either a SATA-cable connected 2.5" SSD, a M.2 SATA (protocol) SSD, or an M.2 PCIe SSD. their respective maximum R/W speed increases significantly in this order, so M.2 is not the only way to connect an SSD, at least not as long as cable-sata SSDs still exist.
PCIe (m.2) SSDs are faster than SATA SSDs. M.2 is one way to connect an ssd not the only way.
Sure let’s just edit the whole thing to correct being wrong as fuck.
M.2 is just the connector form factor. Can be NVMe or SATA still.
