Hi all

Looking to purchase a monitor to pair with the Deck. Conscious 1440p isn’t really possible for gaming, but would it be able to output to that resolution for generic desktop tasks such as document writing/browsing?

Any tips for what to look out for?

Thanks!

    Should be easily doable.

    Not much to look out for, only for compatibility with your dock (HDMI / Displayport). I don’t know if USB-C monitors would work directly, they might though.

    Depending on the dock you’re using 1440p at even 120Hz works. I’ve even done dual 1440p but had to drop the refresh rate to 60Hz on both. Haven’t had any issues with this setup.

      Deal of the day: JSAUX Docking Station Compatible with Steam Deck/ROG Ally/Steam Deck OLED, 6-in-1 Steam Deck Dock with HDMI 2.0 4K@60Hz, Gigabit Ethernet, 3 USB-A 3.0 and 100W USB-C Charging Port-HB0603 https://amzn.eu/d/9KDjhnZ

      assume this would be sufficient?
