⚡CORRECTIONS⚡ Hey dudes! Just to correct/expand on one or two things I said in the video. Battery tip - 'Resolution down to 720 and FSR up to full' - I've been told that you'll actually need to take the resolution down further to have an effect. Try 960 x 600 instead 👍 Battery tip - 'Half rate shading' - In some games this makes text look super blurry. In the couple games I tested it looked fine but just checked some others today and it deffo makes things much blurrier, so use that as you will! Super sorry for the mistakes/lack of clarification! Hope you understand. Solo team here so mistakes happen 😅 Have a great day!

They really should tell people these! Thanks!

So, pro tip: Framerate and refresh rate should be adjusted in tandem with eachother for ultimate smoothness. So if possible, cap the framerate in the game settings to 30 or 40 if it is a demanding game. If there is no option in the game settings then fall back on the deck option. If you capped to 30fps then your refresh rate should be 60hz because 60 divides into 30, this means you get even frame pacing. 1 frame will be on screen for 2 screen refreshes. If you capped to 40fps then change the refresh rate to 40hz, that way its 1 to 1.

The Steam button shortcuts also works with the right button with the 3 dots. Makes it easier for some combinations.

Thanks for the tips. I just got my deck YESTERDAY! I ordered it last Thursday, and got it yesterday! I was expecting the 1 to 2 weeks like it says on steam! Now after watching tons of how to videos I’m finally ready to get started.

About the resolution: lowering from 800p to 720p will not activate FSR, even if you turned it on. It only adds black bars at the top and bottom, but the resolution "density" is still the same (try switching between linear and FSR at that resolution, nothing should happen). FSR only kicks in for lower resolutions, or when you dock your Deck to a 1080p (or more) monitor/tv. About half-rate shading: while this does save battery, I found that it tends to make text look super blurry. So if you notice blurry text, it's probably not the resolution or FSR, but half-rate shading instead :)

Another battery saver tip is turning down the TDP and GPU Clock settings. It takes some experimentation on a per-game basis, but there's a good chance that you don't need to have the Deck going at 100% to maintain a playable framerate, especially if you're targeting the 30-45fps range. I was able to get a rock solid 30fps in Witcher 3 at native res at mixed medium and high settings with the TDP bumped down to half and GPU a couple of notches down from full. That gave me an estimated battery life of about 3 hours.

Content suggestion, maybe 5-10 games you can play on steam deck that you can't on console. I have a ps5, xsx, and switch. Finding a game I don't already have or have played on steam deck has been quite the challenge

At 3:00 You can set individual settings for each game (enable it in the quick settings BEFORE you change the settings, else you'll overwrite your global settings). But e.g. set turn based games at 30 fps but leave shooters on 60 fps. #MikeVibe #TipOut

For the battery life, graphically less demanding games can easily reach 5-6 hours of gameplay with only a reasonable framerate limit, which those games often do on their own. As I don't like the way FSR looks I stick to native all the time, despite this being the biggest battery saver next to medium settings. I don't dock my Deck, I link it instead. At my PC the Deck still forms a great controller, with it's unique inputs and on my TV I don't mind the upscaled, letterboxed image streamed from Deck. But this requires a solid 5GHz WiFi connection, which just worked for me. After setting up a good Desktop Configuration, my Deck also serves as a Linux tablet, I have it in Desktop Mode about half of the time. With practice duel trackpad typing with trigger clicks becomes very smooth, this comment was typed in this way. One example of things this allows is it becoming a great music player with software like Elisa, even in Game Mode if added there.

I'm pretty sure that if you set your in-game resolution to 720p, the FSR upscaling is doing nothing since the screen itself if 720p (well 1280x800, but that's basically the same). To actually benefit from FSR while in handheld mode, you need to set the resolution even lower, like 540p and then use FSR to upscale to 720p. Otherwise, you're 'upscaling' 720p to 720/800p screen, which does nothing.

Deaths door! Such a great game. I talk about it in my video 'I played 3 Steam Deck games recommended by YOU' incase you wanted to check that out 😄

What is that first game you were showing off. The guy with the sword.
