Digital foundry says this update has good cpu improvements. How does this improve decks performance ? Are we in better shape for locked 30fps ?
You must log in or register to comment.
Don’t forget that 3.5 includes a performance update for the deck AND a specific driver for starfield.
Cryo could already reach 30 stable in new Atlantis with decent graphic WITH the 3.5 patch (and without the Bethesda patch)
Why isn’t this game listed as Playable…?
Because it’s not! It almost never runs at 30fps (usually around 20fps) at the lowest settings with fsr all while looking like an oil painting where you can’t make out anything in the background.
Idk to me unsupported is when it won’t boot. A game can run poorly and still be technically playable
The Deck is heavily memory bandwidth limited. The CPU improvements from the latest patch will probably give an improvement, but it will not be the full ~20% observed by Digital Foundry.
I wonder how that will be for the OLED
If you have an LCD model with non-Samsung memory, or know somebody with one, you can actually enable a memory overclock and test!
Though it’s the most unstable and easily brickable of all Steam Deck overclocks, so I wouldn’t, personally. If you do have Samsung RAM… don’t even think about it.
I’m running 6400mhz with Samsung ram….
Is there a way to find out what ram you have without opening up the deck?
Run: “sudo dmidecode” from a konsole window in game mode, and then scan through the output. You’ll see the make and model of the ram listed.
FYI though both Micron and Samsung ram is overclockable.
Thanks for that. From looking into it, is a custom bios the only way to overclock the ram?

This is just laughably authoritative considering you don’t have a clue what you’re talking about.
you don’t have a clue what you’re talking about.
Feel free to pretend what you just wrote is true and overclock your Samsung RAM.
In fact, I encourage you to do so without a backup.
I’ve had my Samsung ram overclocked for 6 months.
I repeat: This is just laughably authoritative considering you don’t have a clue what you’re talking about.
Cool beans
