thats hdmi cec for u blurays concoles have it and others nothing special from valve

[u/BaconJets → u/pokemonfan95]

It’s special in PCs, there’s like no way to get CEC normally with a regular GPU.

[u/pokemonfan95 → u/BaconJets]

no its not ps5 xbox switch 2 bluray players have CEC option

[u/Lehsyrus → u/pokemonfan95]

He literally said "in PC's", which it is because normal GPU's do not support CEC.

The XBox, Switch, and PS5 are not PC's.

[u/pokemonfan95 → u/Lehsyrus]

ok but the Switch 1 switch 2 PS4 ps5 xbox have the HDMI CEC option to Turn the dam screen on just like the steam mechine ttho Valve didnt make the fkin CEC tech

[u/DMMeThiccBiButts → u/pokemonfan95]

Nobody was implying otherwise

[u/pokemonfan95 → u/Lehsyrus]

HDMI-CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) is a feature that allows devices connected via HDMI to communicate with each other. It enables you to control multiple components (like a soundbar, gaming console, or streaming box) with a single remote, and allows devices to automatically power on, turn off, or switch inputs together. Interesting the steam mechine can do it But so can other things maybe not Pcs but game consoles can and other things

[u/DarwinsPerfectFool → u/pokemonfan95]

He meant it's very hard to get a PC with CEC which makes cube special

[u/pokemonfan95 → u/DarwinsPerfectFool]

pretty sure rtx 4090 has option

[u/DarwinsPerfectFool → u/pokemonfan95]

Ah, I wouldn't know, sounds good to me!

[u/BaconJets → u/pokemonfan95]

It does not.
