  • I’m by no means rich, but I can afford to buy an OLEDdeck without having to resort to eating top ramen for a month…

    I was debating whether or not to get a typical cheaper PC and an OG steamdeck for about the same total price I paid for the gaming PC, but figured I could kill 2 birds with 1 stone with the gaming PC. I can edit video and play games too, but it’s not as simple as console gaming(then again, neither is the steamdeck from what I’ve seen) a lot of tweaking of settings to get it in the right rez and fps sweet spots.

    The OLED version quashed 2 of the 3 issues I had with the OG. Battery life and screen quality. The APU will have to be more than just a lithography shrink, but I’m torn about the need for more horsepower for games that don’t exist.

    grrrr. need to plot how to justify a purchase. coming up a bit short, especially after buying the gaming pc…
    “but I can play on the couch and be with you guys instead of going into my tiny man cave and being by myself” probably won’t hold…
