Steam Deck 2: Revision 2

Steam Deck: Gaben

I use NileSoft Shell, a replacement for the stock Windows right click menu that adds the option to give you permission to a folder with 2 clicks. Worth it for GamePass mods.

If only they offered a solderless version.

The new engine is finally out for PC, nice. That means better performance in endgame maps.

You can do that, but be aware, upscaling with FSR takes a performance hit. It’s not a big one but can make the difference between stable and unstable 30FPS.

Yup. Standard 2230 M.2

In most it doesn’t matter, but in some newer games like Ratchet and Clank Rift Apart, the difference is massive.

Can you point me to a $350 laptop with similar specs? And the form factor is the whole selling point, duh.

Yes, but shader caches always go to the internal memory, so that will fill up even if the games themselves are installed to the SD card.

I got the 64GB and swapped the SSD for a bigger one. It was painless and now I have 1TB of internal memory for less than the price of the 256GB model.

Yes, but they always charge for a license to allow you to profit with their tools. That’s being skipped here.

Dota was. Dota 2 isn’t and never was a mod.

I could never play Guild Wars 2 without them either, and it’s one of my most played games. One of the reasons I got a Deck too.

I recently finished Planescape Torment, and I can only imagine how much I would’ve hated it without the touchpads.

How comes Valve is the only one to get inputs right? Not even fan renders get it right.

Unironically yes.

It’s physically possible. Necessary though, not yet.

Not yet, the specifications are finished but the first SDUC hasn’t launched yet.

SD is considerably slower, but it doesn’t show in game. Only slightly longer load times.
