![]() We aren't sure what contributes to the similar numbers seen here. You would assume it would run worse on Ultra settings. Cyberpunk 2077 hit 29 fps on both Steam Deck mode and Ultra, which is an unexpected result. DiRT 5 averaged 40 fps on medium and 23 on Ultra.Ĭyberpunk 2077 and Doom Eternal were two games that have a “Steam Deck” graphical mode, which optimizes games for the handheld. Assassin’s Creed Odyssey achieved an average of 38 frames per second on High (default) settings but topped out at 23 fps on Ultra High. We could have tried games that weren't verified (more on that below), but those would likely not produce accurate results.Īs far as what we were able to test, we ran some of the usual benchmarks on Steam Deck. ![]() Testing the Steam Deck via our usual methods was interesting, since we were limited to using titles that are verified for the Steam Deck. This obviously can’t compete with the best gaming laptops or best gaming PCs, but it’s enough to play many games at decent frame rates, especially if they’re optimized for SteamOS. ![]() All three models run on a custom AMD Zen 2 “Van Gogh” APU and pack 16 GB RAM. Steam Deck has impressive specs for a handheld. Can run most compatible games at around 30 fps.You can adjust text size in some games, but you’re out of luck if that option doesn’t exist. That’s because these titles have in-game text suited to monitors and televisions. I have relatively good eyesight, but even I squinted when trying to read the tiny text in Cyberpunk 2077 and Command & Conquer: Remastered. However, that isn’t always the case when it comes to on-screen text. The screen size is sufficient for displaying game graphics. I also can’t help but wonder if the device could have had a larger screen if the bezels were thinner. While images look crisp, the large bezels surrounding the screen are something of an eyesore. I can't speak to how well the model with the anti-glare screen works outdoors. If you plan to play outside, you'll want to remain in a shaded spot. In real-world usage, though, it's bright enough so long as you're indoors. ![]() Numerically, the screen isn't all that bright. The latter figures fall short of the desired 100% or above target. It produces 68.5% of the sRGB color gamut and registers 48% of the DCI-P3 color gamut. In our Tom's Guide testing, we found that the display reached an average of 169.7 nits of brightness. Many modern games have a 16:9 aspect ratio, however, meaning that you’ll lose some real estate above and below the game screen. The 16:10 aspect ratio works well when navigating through the SteamOS interface. Games look phenomenal on the Steam Deck’s 7-inch 1280 x 720 LCD touchscreen.
