Pro tip, bring a dock or at least a usb c to hdmi cable when you travel so you can use the tv in the room.

I hate playing with a controller. I have a dock, but sitting directly in front of a 55" display would not be a great experience.
Ugh, maybe it’s my bad luck, but this only works in half the hotel rooms I come to. The other half have the TV built into some kind of cabinet blocking the ports, or mounted high on a wall where my cable is too short to reach, or locked down with some software so I can’t connect my own devices.
I think that’s an HP dock off to the right given that the mouse and keyboard are wired into something over there. Could just be that the TV is fixed to the wall and not in a good position.

How does your steam deck not explode from that?? I assumed ARC was like, heavy as fuck?

people seem to think the steam deck is a potato. you’d be surprised at what it can handle with decent or lower graphic settings.

As long as you stay on the small screen. In TV mode, 3D games will stutter or look ugly or both. I stick to pixel art mostly for this reason.

The Steam Deck performs on par with a PS4. It can run lots of recent AAA games if you turn the graphics down.

I got a go s z2go (comparable to steam deck) and im suprised whenever it runs something that seems kinda heavy smoothly.

The game runs great. The deck does get quite warm… I drop FPS to 30 instead of 60 and for extended sessions I put a cup of ice (when at home, a freezer pack) behind the deck to help cool down the intake air.
5 rounds and no issues thus far!
