The steam deck is not designed to run on a TV, it is not very fast.
The larger the TV is the more power you need lol, not less. Frankly to run at proper frame rates I wouldn’t be getting anything less than an RTX 4070 and even then that isn’t much of a 4K GPU.
That simply isn’t true. TV size has nothing to do with framerate. You’ll see the same framerate on a 25inch 1080p TV as you would a 250inch 1080p TV.
Resolution does have an impact however. Native deck resolution is 1,024,000 pixels. Stepping up to 1080p docked is more than double at 2,073,600 pixels. 4k is 8x more than native at 8,294,400 and that’s where you’ll see your frames tank.
If the TV is capable of 720p (most are) this gets pretty close to the steam decks native resolution and gamers should expect roughly the same performance docked as they would in handheld mode.
No shit it has nothing to do with that, pretty obvious what I am referring to
a 60 inch TV will look SHIT unless it is running games at some sort of 4k resolution.
Are you seriously suggesting 720p 60 inches is going to be anything other than a swamp of pixels, aliasing and blur?
The entire point of the steam deck having a low res display is so it can display games at a high fps and low res doesn’t matter on a smaller display as much.
Build a gaming pc and plug it into the TV?

At 60 inches, now resolution is paramount…
The size of the TV doesn’t matter, only the resolution.
If you’re going to comment at least get basic fucking facts right.
