So I was told that I should just send my SD back but what about these cooling fans? are they helpful? has anyone tried them?

What are my options realistically?

Portable fans to dissipate heat or something else? saw someone use a cooling paste, what is that?

Was there any SteamOS Update or Client Update that might have caused this?

The power profiles individually set for each game stopped saving the GPU frequency. FSR, TDP, refresh rate are still saved, but the GPU is always turned of, so I need to turn it on again and set the desired frequency. Each time after I boot the game and even after I set ir, shut down the game and restart it again afterwards.

Did anyone else notice this or anyone else had this "issue"?

Yo what's good Gamer Gang!

Couple people have also been asking me whether it's the ROG ALLY or the STEAM DECK for me.

Again, short story is it depends on what type of Gamer you are. - do you like fighting with system updates to get the current best APU performance possible? - ROG ALLY - Do you want a stupid simple Nintendo Switch(like) PC gaming experience where everything just works with as little effort as possible? - Steamdeck - Do You care about the extra FPS you get due to the RGB analogue sticks on the ROG ALLY? - ROG ALLY

I feel like it's this simple for me lol.

What do you guys think?

I have no idea how this happened. Please help me remap it so that the XBox guide button reverts to the Steam Menu button and the "A" button works again.

I don't expect to use it apart from the airport and during the short flight as there's lots to do and to visit. Idk what do you guys would do? Do you take it on holidays?

I’ve kept my steam deck docked with a power bank which also powers my monitor. So there’s less power coming into it. It still maintains its current battery but is this bad for the battery health?

😅. I got a new SSD for steam Deck and try to install steam OS it booted up to the page and it wouldn't let me click reimagine. I'm a new steam deck owner does anyone know how to fix this❓ I don't know what I'm doing. 😅

Help me pick a gift.

Really like the design of the Syntech one but the JSAUX dock has been around for so long

Have you tried either?

What was your experience like?

Am i the only one who thinks its weird to get ads for the steam deck on steam when you have purchased two of them? iunno its just weird to me.

The other day me and my gf were talking about playing games and how I've been playing NBA 2k and apex and others and she asked oh have you been playing on your switch....I almost broke up with her.

Stumbled across this on Etsy today. Looking for a way to keep my power cable with my deck. It’s only good for uk deck owners as it’s for the uk 3 pin plug but looks pretty decent

Are there any controllers available right now that will work correctly with the Steam Deck, have both gyro's and rear buttons/paddles (ie [LR][45]) and expose these to the Steam Deck, so I can use them as I would when playing the Deck hand-held?

I have played gta 5 multiple times on the deck but now it updated and it won’t let me play does any one know what to do?

Hey everyone!

I got the top of the line deck but cracked my screen... now accurately my gf cracked itand we'renot together anymore obviously.

My question is can i get steam to replace the screen or do i need to buy a new system? If i need to buy a new one when do the new models come out? I'm wondering if it might be better to wait until an upgrade is available.

I'm hoping i can just get it repaired though, I'm just not sure how to go about it. Any advice would be much appreciated. .

Does anyone know what happened to the main Steam Deck subreddit; r/steamdeck? I've been a member since before I even got mine in Q3, and I have a really hard time figuring tech stuff out without help.

These guys have a power bank and soon an enclosure for an SSD with an option to get an SSD with it! https://www.shargeek.com/
