3.5.5 is without a doubt the biggest troll that Valve has ever released.
Github, Reddit and the Steam comments are full of reports of the new fatal 200-1040 MHz GPU bug, which was also brought to Stable with 3.5.5.
And as if that wasn’t enough, no, speakers that worked perfectly before are now crackling like crazy.
And no, that’s not all, the great absolutely overdriven Srgb color mode also applies to your external monitor, which is absolutely, ABSOLUTELY unacceptable.
The Microphone, that has been working perfectly on 3.4x is also now completely unusable.
3.5.5 shouldn’t have been put out like this, and is the biggest Disappointment this year.
That being said, Valve should add a Downgrade function.
No, the most recent comments on github also cover the stable release. I personally waited for 3.5 to come to stable (have never touched the preview channel) and have had this bug and others over the weekend. Ended up downgrading back to 3.4.11.
The worst bit is this bug has been reported for at least a month and valve has not even acknowledged it yet
