I knew SD was a powerful console but damn I wasn’t expecting this: Shadow of War 60 FPS locked on custom settings? I have textures on high too, beautiful.

    As someone who has both the lcd and oled version, they feel like completely different consoles. I don’t even understand how they pulled this off. It’s become my main source of gaming. Runs Elden ring flawlessly for about 3+ hours.

    Yeah, but if you’re out and about, you’d best be playing at a 45 refresh rate, otherwise your Deck’s done for in 2 hours.

    Just make sure to know how much you got on battery life bc u know based on games and such. But still, holy damn does SD hit hard

      If you can get games to run around 15 watts, you’ll be pretty happy with battery life overall.

      I’m constantly trying to lower my wattage. Mostly because I hate fan noise, but the battery benefit is super solid.

        my LCD has a noisy Delta fan so I was all about tweaking settings to keep the system running as quiet as possible with the side-benefit of extended battery life, it’s been surreal upgrading to the LE OLED and barely hearing a whir even while cranking out graphics lol

          Personally with the OLED I still don’t want to go above ~4500 RPM, which is the case at ~18-19W

      Really? I’m glad to hear that, I’ve been wanting to try that game for while now, but kept hearing how poor it ran on SD. Thank you for the info!
