The 'old' 5800X and 3080... I have 5800 and 3080 and still consider this stuff top tier (to persuade myself not to upgrade ;))! What kind of FPS would you get 1440p quality/balalnced DLSS? I assume similar to 4k performance? What was your FPS like in open world and town? Debating whether i...

3080 FE. I don't max out all other settings though as they make little visual difference. Eg max settings except Cascaded Shadow Res medium Volumetric fog Res high Volumetric cloud medium Screen space reflections ultra Ambient occlusion low Colour precision medium DLSS set to quality Haha oh...

It's essentially grainy screen, but it's driven by the pixels so it stays in place. The Limited Edition OLED (not in UK) used a different panel and doesn't exhibit the effect. https://imgur.com/gallery/WbHmiYb https://youtu.be/oBAFDzgqQwI?si=_vcHAQBNaTulxsFn The video isn't great quality, but...

While my OLED steam deck is awesome, and the screen looks superb ofcourse, I will say I notice the mura in certain grey/dark scenes when it's not too busy - to the point it can be a little distracting. I noticed the same on my Switch OLED - it's just the nature of these panels unfortunately...

Just tried the mod to use frame gen with 3xxx series cards (using FSR3). Damn I'm impressed - >60fps 1440p with psycho RT + Path Tracing, with DLSS+Frame Gen. Looks and plays great. It's not perfect (definitely some artifacts visibile in certain parts), but very playable and input lag aint bad...

Been playing Hitman 2: Silent Assassin and Hitman Contracts recently. A bit of fiddling to get widescreen working properly, and unfortunately I can't get AA working at the same time, but otherwise got some custom controls going and it works great. Already completed Hitman 2 and nearly done with...

Do you have anything Bluetooth connecting to it? Headphones? I had a very interesting case where I was using my Bluetooth headphones with it and then turned it to sleep, put it in the case, and put my earbuds in their charging case. 10 mins later I took out the earbuds to use with my phone and...

Personally I think the Res on deck is perfect for the balance of performance, battery life, heat and image quality. Increase the Res and everything else suffers. Don't get me wrong, I'll enjoy the higher Res of future generation decks, but with the power right now I think valve were very smart...

Yooo your thumbstick situation sounds similar to mine. Does it visually look a bit 'dirty' too? Here's mine, cleaning doesn't help it: https://imgur.com/a/e0pKbh0 Valve told me it's cosmetic and not covered by warranty (tbf it functioned with the capacitive touch perfect still), but I'm not...

Mine is UK plug, 1TB OLED. And refund has been requested. Once they confirm the details I will place my next order, thankfully shipping back to 3-5 days so still before Xmas :) still got my LCD steam deck to use in the meantime.

Yeah it feels a minor thing given its mostly cosmetic but the fact it's noticeable and has a different feel... Yeah I'll prob update my request to request a full return and refund per UK law and just rebuy. As no reason needs to be provided within 14 days and the RMA sounds like it will just be...

So Valve got back to me and said my joystick issue is cosmetic only and not covered in warranty. Tbh I don't disagree all that much as was using the device lots yesterday and it played perfectly fine, and the capacitive function is working perfect too. Outside of direct sunlight it looks mostly...

I'm hoping that a driver fix allows me to turn mine back on as I'm definitely not using the full speed of my internet now as a result.

I have turned off my 160bhz band and can confirm it's fixed my issue. DOwnload speeds now 600 Mbps. I can get better with the 160Mhz band enabled I imagine but this is good enough for now. Didn't do a thing, its so strange how its like a slippery dirty coating. Don't know if it's a bit OTT for...

Ok thanks may give it a go then to see if it cleans it up. I'd rather not send it back - its really mostly superficial, but is a less grippy Vs the right one. If I'm not happy I should just be patient and get RMA though. Regarding the loud trackpad above, I noted that on my deck (right...

Certainly can't see any part that needs removing, I've delicately tried to see if there's a anything there. But it's not on the other joystick so it wouldn't make sense, unless it's something in manufacture that's supposed to get removed. I've just tested the touch capacitive function and it...

Yeah and I can't find one other instance of this online so clearly just unlucky and not a consistent manufacturing issue. The WiFi seems to be related to certain WiFi 6 routers (not just one brand) where only the steam deck has problems connecting...

My 1TB OLED arrived earlier, but looks like it's got a strange manufacture defect on the left thumb stick. It's oddly dirty looking, doesn't feel grippy like the right thumb stick, and can't be cleaned to make it feel like the right thumb stick either. https://imgur.com/a/e0pKbh0 I've sent a...

My monday order last week arrived Friday (same week) :)

True to their word, I received my Q2 email today (512GB UK). Valves twitter says they met all their Q2s and production is now doubling. Nice. Q3 orders start Thursday.
