I just wish the SD was a bit more powerful. Recently especially with those UE5 games we need to install some custom scripts just to make them playable and usually they don't even look good. I love the Deck, but Steam should really update the APU.
Agreed. We don’t need it to perform like an RTX 5090 but just a smidge more power would get a ton of recent games into playable frame rates. I still don’t know how people play BG3 on the deck.
I've been playing rogue trader on mine recently, I'd describe as playable, but it's night and day different going through moonlight (which yeah, obviously). Satisfactory was able to get 40-60 pretty reliably.
How bad is bg3 on it?
You can get around 30FPS but you have to deal with heavy FSR artifacting and it looks terrible.
