The Steam Deck APU is only powering 720/800p displays, that’s half the 1080p resolution, pixel wise. Plus the Steam Deck is still underperforming with slightly newer titles.

It doesn’t help that GPUs are stupidly expensive.

Yes, I have never played it and I played RDR II which I really liked. I think I might give it a go and refund it if it is not my cup of tea. What I really enjoyed in the second part was the story.

Yes, I understand and I can definitely relate to your situation. I have never played it before and was thinking I can give it a go and if I don’t like it, simply refund it

I can refund it on Steam too.

Yes, I don’t think they will discount it even further for the summer sale, maybe there is a small chance for the winter one, but even if they do it 50% off, that’s like 5 bucks extra, not a huge amount of money.

The funny part is that nowadays there are companies that interview you with an AI interviewer and are telling you not to use AI. They are asking you to install some software and switch on your camera. While talking to an AI agent. Truly dystopian.

That’s a UE5 demo, not a demo of the game itself. Most likely the game will not be as detailed and stunning.

Do you have a GitHub repo? As I am building my system like this and was thinking of exactly using Podman and quadlets.

Exactly that. Everyone is obsessed with eternal growth, pushing SaaS offerings our throats and even more subscriptions. There is a real estate crisis, where putting a roof over your head becomes an even more distant dream for the majority of the working population and greedy companies are firing people and replacing them with AI and then they wonder why people are revolting. Eat the rich!

Defending human rights and condemning war crimes is now punishable.

I also played it on 2.1 and the game was absolutely amazing. The story was engaging, and the world was absolutely stunning.

Ughhh you have UHD620. I also have a ThinkPad T14s with Ryzen 4750U and my APU should be more powerful. Do you have any luck of running the Oblivion in a playable manner?

I think the amd_p_state is not available on any Zen 2.

The problem is that the Steam Deck APU doesn’t support amd_p_state and you need to rely on auto_cpufreq. This explains why the power consumption in sleep is so high.

I implemented the same on my laptop with tlp. It is actually pretty easy to do so.

Advanced access costs 20 Euro on top of the already overpriced price, in order to be able to play it two days in advance.

True, they should be 5050 or lower class, what NVIDIA did the last couple of years was to upgrade the class of every card 5050 -> 5060, 5060 -> 5070 etc. and as a result that increased the rift between 90 and 80 tiers of cards and make the generational performance increase lukewarm at best.

Unfortunately people are way dumber than you think.

Same with 5060Ti 8Gb. We have an extreme greediness and planned obsolescence in full force on display here.
