I'm surprised at how well it's running on my machine, though I haven't messed with rhe settings much.

It's an enormous game though. That is very clear so far

What are your pc specs?

Ryzen 7 3700x, 32gb DDR4, nVidia RTX 2070 Super, @ 1440p.

I’m on a 3070, 10700k, 32GB ram, and it runs really well at 1080p. I’m hoping the steam deck can keep up decently as well

I mean you have a 3070 with a 1080p monitor. It would be a failure if any game didn’t run well on those specs. 1440p is more logical setup. 4K a challenging one.

That’s fair, I think fallout 4 scared me lol. That shit barely ran even on 1080p

I've been streaming it to my deck, I don't want to make space for it yet lol

Can I ask what your experiences are with streaming to the deck? I have a 5ghz router and still run into latency issues. Do you get good results, and if so what kinda router are you using?

My router is terrible, it's a linksys, cost me $400 and is just horrible to configure. It is however a WiFi 6 router with 5Ghz. The wifi 6, as I understand it, is the biggest benefit.

I get a capture of 60FPS and it says I'm getting 60FPS. The other thing is I have a clear line of sight between me an the router.

Damn that sounds amazing. I’ll have to check out some WiFi 6 routers — I thought I was up to date but clearly not! Thank you for the info

Also, make sure you enable HVEC decoding on your deck, it's higher performance compression

Thank you!! I will check on that tonight
