That is interesting. It doesn’t have VRR, but you can manually set the frame rate per game so take advantage of the frame doubling. Basically manual VRR.
That’s like saying my monitor has “manual VRR” because I can set it to 75 Hz mode or 60 Hz mode or 48 Hz mode or 30 Hz mode or 24 Hz mode.
Still wondering why panels like this don’t have FreeSync. Does it take a lot of extra hardware that’s too much of a pain to implement in something this small?
Meh. Steam deck needs a hardware upgrade. They should’ve saved oled for that.
Improved screen is nice but still stuck the worst SOC vendor possible. Could have been so much better with intel and nvidia
Battery life would be even worse than on the ROG Ally with max performance. AMD is the most efficient.
I’ll keep my modded 2TB OG Deck with hall effect joysticks to wait for an actual successor. I’d maybe be inclined to sidegrade if they did a trade-in program, but otherwise not. Only reason is because all I want from my Deck is just a little bit more horsepower, not a lot, just a little more is enough, it feels just a tad bit underpowered to me sometimes.
OC the RAM, made the biggest difference. I OC’ed GPU as well as CPU (cant do both at the same time) and RAM OC did more in my testing.
