How many of you install games outside Steam on your Decks? Do you find the process easy?...
Every PC I’ve ever used automatically detects and adjusts resolution to the display you connect to it. Even Nintendo Switch will detect when it’s docked and automatically adjust the display resolution. But on Steam Deck you literally have to adjust the display resolution for every game, every time you switch displays....
I am in need of some help. I’m trying to find a good portable monitor for my steamdeck. I don’t need it to be huge, 12inches minimum, but I’m not having much luck with my own research. I would like low latency, high refresh rate, and colors as close to the same as on the og LCD deck (which is what I have)....
I just plugged the steam deck in to a monitor and while I was transferring some roms and started to wonder if it would be feasible to use as a day to day computer while docked.
With the use of Heroic game launcher, I’m wondering if you all preferred to play your GOG version of games over the Steam version. I can go either way but sometimes I pause and think, having two copies of the same game, one on steam and one on GOG, which one would give me a better gaming experience. For example, I may choose...
Has anyone purchased a Steam Deck in Australia and had to use the warranty? If so how was it? Who did you buy through, was the warranty easily navigated etc?
I was only able to play skate 3 so far with better performance than rpcs3. I didn’t change any settings in the conf file. It is using the vulkan renderer....

Just got done installing the new shell from JSAUX! Had some pains to go through that I want to let you folks know about....
Love the SteamDeck and looking for some good Multiplayer games that feel right on the SD. I find FPS games don’t translate well for me with the keyboard -> controller style jump. So far love Diablo 4 when it comes to MP.
I swapped my 64GB out for a 1TB immediately after opening mine. Everything works…except the left shoulder button. It often doesn’t click when pressed and even when it does register in game as a button press, its very smushy feeling. A quick search online suggests its a very common problem....
Flying to Greece this weekend and it’s my first flight with my OG Steam Deck....
Hopefully this is the right place to post this, if not let me know
When playing game pass, there is a tab in the upper left with eight dots that is used to access the Xbox menu. Problem is, I have an oled and when I play docked it bothers me that it might burn in eventually. Any way to remove this?
I’m looking at getting a 1TB SD but I’m trying to figure out if the Limited Edition SD is worth beyond the look of it. If it’s just looks then I probably will get the regular 1TB Steam Deck.
I’m curious how people play multiplayer games on the steam deck: online and offline. I want to get into them but I am not sure how sound this goal is right now. The only multiplayer games that I have played were dead by daylight. But I know that cannot be the only game that offers multiplayer. Share with me your...
With the release of bazzite 2.0 and the existence of other steamOS-like distros like chimera OS, I’m just wondering if anyone is running their steam deck with a different distro than what was shipped. How does the experience stack up, do you prefer something like chimera or bazzite? Just wondering if I’m missing out by...
Just got a 64gb steam deck and replaced the SSD with a 1tb sabrent Rocket and it’s not showing up as an available drive. I reinstalled the old drive and it works fine. I have no other way of testing the drive. Most likely DOA?
Hi there, I know this has been debated for a long time but just trying to understand if this level of backlight bleeding is normal. To add some context, this picture was taken in a dark room with the deck showing a completely black image. Thanks! steam deck picture in the dark
What could someone do to add their DRM free games and music to their steam deck and to steam so they could be enjoy there? Could they play their drm free games on the stream deck from humble bundle? Especially humble bundle and itch.io.
Has anyone else ran across this? Every time I close a game and try to go back to the home page, I just get a blank, black screen. It’s still on, and I can move the mouse cursor and see it, but everything else is basically frozen. No steam menu or system menu will pop up, only the cursor.
I’m in the process of transferring my deck into a JSAUX transparent Purple shell, as well as switching the sticks for Hall Sensors and getting the DeckHD 1200p Display. Unfortunately, I didn’t check whether my original Joy Sticks were MEDA or MHDA before opening it up. Now I’m not sure what to set the ElecGear sticks to....
Has anyone figured out a good solution to remote wake a PC from the Steam Deck? Seems silly this wasn’t baked into the UI, considering this could be done from the Steam Link hardware back in the day.
I made it most of the way through without looking anything up which means I’m definitely missing stuff, but once I got to Xen I couldn’t figure out what I was supposed to be doing several times. I think I’m two sections away from beating the game....
On update 3.5 of Steam OS, there was a call out about being able to customize the overlay by editing the ~/.config/MangoHud/preset.conf....
