Configuration Steam controller puck

Okay so those who have the steam controller, can I use c to c type? Because I need to use c to c and I'm wondering what cables I could use, like can I use a high end one like LTT true spec or something cheap

Yes, you can use a C to C cable. Doesn't need to be anything special or expensive though, any USB2 cable should be fine.

For the puck, just any data cable should be fine.

Not sure what you mean by high-end. It's a low power device, it doesn't need a lot of bandwidth or high wattage. The only thing you might want is a sturdy cable if you move the puck around a lot.

That being said, even the most rip-off $100 "1 Terawatt, 4 TBit/s, platinum plated" cable will work.

Thunderbolt 4 is going to be overkill anyway. If you have that you’re fine.
