[News] GuliKit will be releasing their Hall Effect Joystick upgrade for the OLED deck this month
  • You can buy hall effect joysticks for those but you have to solder them yourself. Bought some and didn't get to install them yet, but they seem promising.

    Bit of extra unrelated info, so far I've had 4 360 controllers for 10+ years that never drifted, and two ps5 controllers less than a year old had to be repaired because they started drifting. I love the dualsense feel, but they sure used shitty joysticks.

    [Discussion] New month, new games. What are you playing on your Steam Deck? - May 2024
  • Heard mixed things about Fallout 4 new update for the deck. I decided to try it out with the default settings. Happy to report that it works great, I'm getting stable 60 (at least up to Concord) and it looks nice.

    AMD must fix FSR upscaling (DLSS vs FSR comparison)
  • Can you tell me more about this? First time I hear about upscaling without FSR or DLSS. I don't mean anti-aliasing or linear scaling.

    AMD must fix FSR upscaling (DLSS vs FSR comparison)
  • Tbh I'd rather compare performance and quality without any upscaling. It's fun to upscale obviously since you're giving some life to older hardware, but it's essentially cheating and it introduces latency which is never really measured. Also as we've seen, the upscaling is mostly tied to software which can change over time, so it shouldn't really be taken into account for comparing GPUs.

    What are the old geforce owner using now? AMD's FSR probably.

    Valve's iFixit partnership is a game changer
  • I'm so glad they did this partnership as well, my first deck had a whiny fan (pretty bad), bought a new fan that was fairly easy to install and made it so much better to use the device! Ifixit tools are pretty good, too.

    How did you quit your addiction?
  • Went through the same path and managed to stop vaping at 0mg after a while. Tried many times to stop smoking, and vaping was the only thing that did it. I'm guessing vaping flavor ate mostly illegal because governments weren't maming enough money out of it.

    Can you muppets stop throwing away money on awful companies producing subpar games?
  • Same, I looked at craftopia and thought "palworld is an obvious cash grab", which it might end up being. I'm glad people are having fun now, but I'm not buying into its future :)

    I've read they also have a HollowKnight look-alike in the works as well.

  • Has anyone tried undervolting since it's apparently widely available?

    I undervolt my pc's GPU (6750xt) with great results, but I'm wondering if people are getting good results on the deck as well.

    How low are most people getting at while stable? What would be a good benchmark that runs on SteamOS to judge if it's good?
