Apparently, the large portable steam deck is a large Gaming PC 4K bona fide. . It is possible if you manage the jury-rig adapter M.2, the power supply, and upscale GPU from the AMD manufacturer, not Nvidia. On April 11, YouTuber ETA Prime released a video that displays how it can plug in the Radeon RX 6900 XT into the steam deck – ending with several diverse results. Despite the fact that technically works, it seems to have become a gaming PC experience below the relative standard to play the same game on the desktop at the same price, because the CPU deck steam is less powerful, causing obstacles to the GPU.

Steam Deck is still a great modular gaming device
Part of the reason the steam deck is very interesting for gamers, besides being able to access the previously bound steam library from anywhere, is that it is very modular in the design of hardware and software. In comparison, it is impossible to plug in an external video card into the Nintendo switch, regardless of the fact that it will theoretically make it competitive with the current generation console that can produce 4K games at 60 frames per second.
The steam deck is still technically unable to do itself itself, but does have access to the Super Resolution FidelityFX (FSR), which is a kind of AMD equivalent to Nvidia DLSS in that case can increase the resolution of video games on limited hardware. In addition, the Xbox Cloud is available for steam deck users too, which means that every steam deck can theoretically flow games from the Xbox Cloud Ecosystem and play with other Xbox users to boot.
Steam deck, at the $ 400 MSRP, maybe not the ideal gaming system for casual users. It’s also possible not the best idea to plug the video card into the M.2 port and make your main gaming method. However, there must be an appeal with the fact that doing it maybe even possible, and the steam deck will most likely end up carving the niche itself from mod-oriented gamers who don’t mind creating their own ways to play.
