With a Nintendo Switch 2 on the way, I hope Valve make a Steam Deck 2

Aside from what has already been mentionned, what I would like the most is an external gpu docking station for 4k couch gaming (oculink maybe?) that brings it to current gen console, performance wise.

That would make it the perfect console replacement, imo.

Greatly improved streaming performance on newer AMD cards.
Is it true for Linux hosts?
Got lots of stuttering issues with Remote Play, since I switched to AMD.

NVIDIA make it easier to get GeForce NOW on Steam Deck

Just installed it...

It would be nice if Nvidia could include the same experience, UI wise, than what I get on my Nvidia Shield (Android TV app). Much more controller friendly...

Quoting: ticktok
Quoting: LinasSo if I want to stream a Steam game, would it cloud sync with Steam?
Yea when you launch a steam game it basically just spins up a virtual machine, launches steam and you have to log in to steam and then it's just like playing a steam game on someone else's computer.
About that... It's kind of a hit & miss. Nvidia got problems when you sync out of GeForce Now... I often fight with my cloud saves, when I switch from my Nvidia Shield to my Steam Deck. It feels like the GeForce Now service is shutting down too fast, on some occasions. Sad.

Nvidia don't have an x86 licence, so they can't make a chip that's GPU and x86 CPU in one like Intel & AMD can. The handheld Nvidia can do would be ARM - and the Nintendo Switch is exactly an Nvidia/ARM handheld.
I wonder if they could create an intel+nvidia custom chip board? Price would surely be through the roof, though.

This said, Nvidia displayed an arm based with RTX gaming laptop, couple of years ago. It was running an arch based os, if I remember correctly.

Battlefield V now broken on Steam Deck / Linux with EA anticheat live

Quoting: Jarmersounds pretty much run of mill these days for a ue4 release. I basically have to look up all the games on wikipedia and check to see what engine they are running. UE4 is almost guaranteed to have awful performance with tons of stuttering.
Quoting: theHoneyBadgerI heard a rumor today that Apex Legends will be getting this new AC within the next month or two, after the whole hacking debacle during the big competition they had recently. EAC has washed their hands of EA at this point, so the writing is basically on the wall.
Reading these comments could make you believe that UE4 and Epic's EAC are garbage. If that's the truth, Good job Epic!

Battlefield V now broken on Steam Deck / Linux with EA anticheat live

I was affraid I would not be able to play Jedi Survivor before they decide to put EA anticheat into it too... Turns out this game is a mess, performance wise. I ended up uninstalling it after a couple of hours of play, because there is no computer on the face of our planet that can run it without major stuttering issues. I regret buying it in the first place and with this news, I won't buy an EA game again.
