Did performance improve?I didn't overclock so no. I did it to get better temperatures, results were -12C for only 3 to 5 less FPS.

I used LACT earlier this month to undervolt my GPU, I always used to think the process was daunting, but I just benchmarked HITMAN a couple times and was satisfied with the results.

You're telling me they believ there are more players on those business windows ARM laptops, than Steam Deck owners who are in fact videogame players? Epic and co are hilarious.

Really strange that they couldn't wait for the Valve rating to come out and instead they half-announced compatibility.
I hope Valve are watching closely with Microsoft working towards an Xbox Handheld

One thing I see a lot of people online hyping up about the next Xbox products being more PC-box than consoles, just like all these deck-like handhelds, is that they're somehow convinced Microsoft will still allow people to use Steam inside their new gaming OS, and I fail to see the benefit for Microsoft in that. Why invest so much money into a new platform if you're still going to allow users to use the competition? Hardware sales stopped being a point of revenue years ago, it's all about the services now, so why would Microsoft allow the competing service to run on their platform?
Mesa 25.1 will default to Zink+NVK instead of the old Nouveau OpenGL driver for NVIDIA on Linux

Is there a logical possibility for Mesa/Nova/NVK etc to support the software stuff like DLSS etc ? Not asking wen's, just curious to know if it's even something that can be done.

Place your bets on how many games will be roguelikes. I'd go %80.

The real question is if Proton 10 will default to wayland or at least allow to use it through a launch option (mainly for that sweet native HDR without gamescope)... there's also ntsync which is right around the corner in wine from what I read.
These 2 features above sound too big and benefecial to just skip over for the next major Proton version. I hope some miracle happens and they do get included for Proton 10.

Steam Deck SteamOS 3.6.23 Beta released with fixes for rendering issues with Avowed

Finally, I can't believe such a minor issue took months to fix. Having to use a controller non-wirelessly felt like I'm back to the ps2 days.
