Is balanced really that much better running than quality?

I have a highend desktop for desktop gaming and pc usage. i use my steamdeck as a handheld for gaming and as a psuedo laptop for when im say in the living room and need to internet. granted im sure someone who only has the SD for a pc would be different

i liek appimage and flatpack both for different reasons. appimage is nice for stuff like github or a random obscure app, and flatpack for 'app stores' experiences or things that should be sandboxed. both have a place

man thats a really cool idea. that way it wont break anything for other games but we know the new game will work. maybe thats why when i downloaded rdr2 it also downloaded a new proton branch for me...

Quoting: Purple Library Guy

Quoting: Zer0Cool

Quoting: RavenWingsWould it be possible to have a full OS (Windows) running on the Dock-M.2, connect two monitors and have it all run somewhat useable for non-gaming-purposes? I doubt this will be possible over the single USB-C on the Deck, but I lack any serious experience on this topic.

More I/O is very high on my wishlist for a Steam Deck 2. To this day I´m still amazed by the amount of ports my little old GPD Win 1 had :happy:

considering that you can put windows on the sd card and not have much issue i assume this would too. but id still personally just dual boot on a 1TB nvme internally if i wanted windows

Maybe I'm living in the past, but . . . will Windows even run from an SD card, or anywhere else that isn't a computer's primary hard drive? I remember back in the day it was certainly the case that Linux would boot from a USB but for Windows that wasn't remotely a thing.

yes, its easy to put windows on the sd card. eventually i think steamos will be able to be there too

steamdeck doing well hurts their main competition(microsoft). makes sense theyd want their stuff working on the deck

I'm not surprised. Its the only dock that : comes with display port 1.4(the others all say they have 1.2 IF they have it at all), lets you do firmware updates without windows, comes with a charger line real laptop/computer docks do so you can leave it in one place without having to plug and unplug.

plus is priced decently ,in line with laptop docks. i do have a jsaux dock i got the cheapest one to tide me over, but when my steam dock gets here today i aint gonna use it anymore unless its for travel.
