  • Have you thought about an external monitor for your Steam Deck? The price is a big selling point and although I wasn't expecting much, I was very impressed with how it performed.
    As in the video, you will need to manually set each game to run 1080 in the settings else you'll only see 720. Only needs to be done once, but for each game.

    I was thinking of getting such a monitor for my Steam Deck, sometimes in travel I want to watch something and while it adds to the bulk of your luggage it all seems worth it, if you have the space. 150 quid doesn't seem to bad.

    Cool vid thx. Appreciate you giving alternatives for the sold out option. So usb c to usb c from deck to monitor, and a power cable for the monitor that also powers the deck too? Then use a usb c hub connected to the monitor which goes to the deck?

    • @MainCave

      Thats exactly it. You dont need power to use the monitor, but you do need power to charge the steam deck at the same time.

      If I do the math, the entire setup would cost me around 800€ if I take the 256 gb ssd steam deck +external monitor (ideally 240hz 1080p) around 200/300€ + I guess..

    They don't sell this monitor in my country, however, there are others that are very similar, by any chance can the USB-C port that goes to the external battery be connected to a hub instead? Because the monitor I can get does not have the Micro USB port, Id like to use it only for flash drives

    What wireless mouse are you using? I got myself a razer orichi v2, and I tested it out on my steam link via Bluetooth. My god its laggy on that, so I wonder if the steam deck will have the same issue via Bluetooth?

      I have a really basic Logitech and Seenda Bluetooth mouse. Both work OK and haven’t noticed any lag. The Logitech also uses 2.4ghz which will be better if you find any lag.

    Hi there. I'm looking for a car headrest mount solution for the Steam Deck. I've got one for the Nintendo Switch but we're getting rid of it soon in order to replace it with the Steam Deck OLED. Is there anything you could recommend?

    • @MainCave
      @MainCave  Před 3 měsíci +1

      Tough one. I don’t know of any and a quick search doesn’t lead many god results. Problem is going from a switch which is relatively light to a steam deck the mount will need to be substantial to carry the weight.
