![]() While I'm using a 802.11ac wireless router on a 5Ghz band (AirPort Extreme) wireless-to-wireless isn't the best idea even in the greatest of environments. The computer likely didn't have the real-time overhead to render out the video to display on the TV.Īnother issue was the fact that the computer itself and the Apple TV are both wireless. First of all, the processor in my MacBook is only a dual core variant, and the Steam Link requirements involve a quad-core processor. The screen was practically all macro blocking all the time, and it wasn't a great experience. (This is a whole 'other story.)ĭuring this period I decided to give Steam Link a whirl, as I have an Apple TV and the Steam Link app was available for it. This worked well, but it makes the fan in the computer go crazy, and while I'm okay with this for short bursts, it running at full speed for an hour or two at a time is a bit concerning, especially since I believe TF2 is what killed my 2008 iMac in the past. I decided to give Boot Camp a spin, and thanks to a handy guide I found online I was able to set up a Windows 10 install on an external SSD. So I can't play the game natively on the computer even if I want to. Unfortunately the move to macOS Catalina killed off all of Valve's macOS releases. I have a 2016 MacBook Pro, which is not a performance powerhouse by any means, but has more than enough available CPU & GPU grunt to get a good match of TF2 going. Unfortunately I no longer own a Xbox 360, which is a moot point anyway as that release as long since been abandoned to the ages. ![]() ![]() Last week I had the urge to play some Team Fortress 2.
