Id like to get my wife a steam deck for Xmas but All that appears to be left of the original steam deck is the 256gb. Anyone have insight as to whether this would be enough? She likes cyberpunk, RDR2, and Control.

Should I just shoot for a higher capacity OLED when they’re released?

    I think getting the OLED is a no-brainer unless your budget is severely limited. It is just so much better, besides the screen also in AAA gaming battery life.

    The easiest way to find out if all these games fit on the internal SSD simultaneously is to add up the minimum disk space requirements from the Steam store page

    Cyberpunk 2077: 70 GB (+35 GB for the Phantom Liberty DLC)
    RDR2: 150 GB
    Control: 42 GB

    Total: 262 GB (297 GB with CP2077 DLC)

    So obviously these games won’t fit in a 256 GB model, you need 512 GB.
