Hello I recently built a new pc for my dad and he has a 2tb m.2 drive that included all his games from steam to battle.net ect when it came to battle.net including warzone it was easy to locate the game file and it just worked. What is the process of getting steam to recognise all his games that are already installed on that drive without formatting it and re downloading over 1TB of games

https://help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/view/4578-18A7-C819-8620#:~:text=Launch Steam and go to,folder with your installed games.

 

Open Steam settings. Go to Downloads. Click the Steam Library Folders button. Click the plus sign and show it the folder where the games are. 

Corps aren't your friends. "Bottleneck calculators" are BS. Only suckers buy based on brand. It's your PC, do what makes you happy.  If your build meets your needs, you don't need anyone else to "rate" it for you. And talking about being part of a "master race" is cringe. Watch this space for further truths people need to hear.
