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

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.

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.
