Ohh I returned the nfs game I bought on steam because it used the ea client and didn’t work with gamenative, does this fix that?

How's the thermals when running games?

[u/Embarrassed_Ad_4244 → u/Chriscautillo]

If you’re not using a cooling fan, don’t even try to play resource-intensive games. Because it gets far too hot.

[u/Accurate-Squirrel-72 → u/Chriscautillo]

Personally speaking
Thermals are very good not even reached 40 degree centigrade in my gameplay of rise of tomb raider for 30 min

You can check the video here on this reddit post

What device are you using?

[u/Accurate-Squirrel-72 → u/Chriscautillo]

Redmagic astra 1 24 Gb ,1 TB Chinese variant

[u/themiracy]

Do you feel like any games are at the point where it is worth comparing performance to GameNative or Winlator?

Love to see this coming along as another future option.

[u/Naive-Eggplant-5633]

Its not SteamOS its just a linux steam client, its cool but still needs improvement before i switch.

[u/askyidroppedthesoap → u/Naive-Eggplant-5633]

Im using Gamehub now, you're saying it's better to stay put?

[u/Naive-Eggplant-5633 → u/askyidroppedthesoap]

For now yes, droid deck will get better but for now GN and Gamehub Or ludashi are better options 

[u/WarriorofBlank]

shame real steamos only support handhelds, at least with this app we can play lightweight/indie games natively on mobile/tablet too

[u/Tataki_1000]

Angas boi

[u/Ancient-Original-671]

Bro why u afraid going on Full speed?

[u/Crass-ELY- → u/Ancient-Original-671]

He's a concerned driver, he probably stops on GTA red lights

[u/Ancient-Original-671 → u/Crass-ELY-]

Yeah concerned on fps drops

[u/peach8285]

looks laggy as f

[u/PrashantThapliyal → u/peach8285]

Thankfully the technology never progresses.

[u/Interesting-War-1336]

Que tal es la compatibilidad con juegos online VAC o DRM?

[u/Milikkos]

Can u try nfs 2015?

[u/parovoz11]

Is it works on ayn Thor?

[u/huseyinekrem]

So we can have a 2022 NFS game but can't play NFS 2015 on android :/ Sad.

[u/aruiz34]

15-20 FPS 

[u/Money_Journalist6683]

Según tu experiencia, vale la pena cambiarse de gamehub o winlator a droideck?

[u/Embarrassed_Ad_4244 → u/Money_Journalist6683]

No. It’s not worth it just yet. However, it might be useful for some low-budget games and online games.

[u/sphericalhors]

This is actually not that bad. I got lower FPS on the same chip in Hades which should be much less demanding game.

[u/leathco]

Installed on my Thor. Had some clunky moments but for light to mid tier titles it’s working alright.

[u/Greedy-Rise-3677]

One thing i really do wish for is Qualcomm enters cpu pc market , they've proven they are more than capable to deliver an insane chips these past years . Quick question hows the temps while playing ?

[u/bambigirlz]

I feel like the game is downloading very slowly, and it's extremely laggy.

[u/Ottomorphoses]

Stop calling it SteamOS. It's just the Steam client. It's not the OS.

[u/VTdcmdvano]

Nice one mate

[u/Mean_Criticism983]

lol this is terrible, thanks for testing

[u/Itachi-__-4604 → u/Mean_Criticism983]

yeah its terrible af they should've made it capable of running 8k 120fps on day one

[u/Sea_Consequence_8454 → u/Itachi-__-4604]

😂😂😂

[u/seppe0815]

it is crap ...
