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.
Seems like the UE5 games can't get steady framerates on most hardware, but I know what you mean.
I'm definitely looking forward to steam deck 2, but I do appreciate that Valve isn't pushing out a new one each year with slightly improved specs. And now that the nintendo switch 2 has about the same power as the steam deck, maybe we'll see UE5 and some other engines actually try to run well at that performance level.
