I Did it last week with the dule boot option, and i don't regret it its awesome. I would recommend to dule boot it with the steam os, that way any game you need to play on steam, make it a better exp with any steam game.
I just switched off windows and onto Bazzite OS on my ROG Ally. I play big single player open world games like Ghost of Tsushima, Spiderman, Fallout (3,nv,4) and so I prefer Linux. Now Windows is so full of bloatware and poor UI with handhelds that I just switched off of it.not against someone using it mind you, it's very much a matter of preference and I don't see this as a "one correct os above all" situation. Love Steams UI and even though Bazzite isn't exactly SteamOS it's got all the same features and UI. I'm happy with it. Anywho I'm rambling good video!
It's fine for me, but I also have it installed on an ssd and not an SD card I'm shocked that's even an option as sd cards are slower than most new mechanical hard drives which even windows 10 runs terrible on.
I have windows 11 on an SD card spare I have. I knew it was slow but damn! (The SD card). I'm planning to run some Ubisoft games and see how it works. If I plan to stick with this route I'd rather just get an SSD and plug it in a USB hub instead
Same here - I’ve a fast as card with win 11 on, and dual boot via clover - I’ve found it too slow to be something I’d use daily but useful on odd occasions.
Love the video. After watching , you gave me an idea. 256 gb is the original memory of my SD LCD, but i upgraded it to a 1tb. Now, i dont have any use for the 256 ssd. Your suggestion to make a separate SSD for windows is a nice advice, rather dual boot. If i have the time i will make the 256 gb a windows only ssd and 1 tb for the Steam OS only.
Sir, i have a question. I hope you can answers it. If i follow your advice and make my 256gb as my windows os and if need to swith to steam os, i need to open and put back the 1tb ssd. My question is, can i buy a ssd enclosure and put the 256gb that has the windows os in that enclosure? Then can i boot the steam deck using that external ssd enclosure by going to the Bios? Do steam deck bios can do that? The onething stopping me is the hassle of open/closing the back part of SD. By removing the hassle, i can seamlessly remove the open/closing process and directly to the source. Hope you can shed light on this. Thanks.
I’ve had windows for months is has improved the only thing that still remains is the brightness once you hit zero you can just redrag the bar back to zero and it will go dimmer but it has been working great besides that I’m able to play destiny 2 with mid settings and it’s very fun have to get used to a smaller screen but after that it feels great everything works great and I would recommend a mini Bluetooth keyboard makes life easier
Tl;dr, no. Stick with steam os, or a different Linux os. You can get lots of games to run on Linux, there are different launchers to get things to work. Up to the game developer though, to support beyond Windows.
Windows has been clearly signalling for a long time that they don't care about gamers or hobbyists with their software. If you like things that work, you should find ways to get rid of windows before Microsoft don't give you the choice. Win 10 is losing support next year at which point we can expect every game from that OS to break on windows 11. Microsoft only cares about Xbox games, PC gamers need to learn linux or get used to being treated as console players.
I use it for work and game pass . i even use WSL from the windows side But Steamos is just superior .I run windows from SD. It's fine for my use cases.
Windows 10 support ends in 13 months, there's never been a better time to swap to linux. Windows has been getting worse with every iteration since 7. The OS was already doing everything it needed to and they're now removing features to replace them with cloud bullshit nobody asked for. Meanwhile, all the things you love about Win10 that are missing from 11 have been standard in Linux for years. You also won't have to throw out your computer because Microsoft arbitrarily decided it's not good enough to run their spyware riddled bloated dinosaur of an OS on. If the obvious failings on Microsoft aren't enough, have a look at their AI plans and what they mean for your data security and safety. They're using the OS as a training tool for their AI, it's not designed for us at all. You can't opt out of these features anymore either. Microsoft are quickly going the way of Yahoo or AOL. We'll remember the name had something to do with computers but we'll struggle to remember why everyone put up with them for so long.
Hey man thank you so much for this, I’m a huge destiny fan and I wanted to play it on my deck so badly! I’m currently downloading, however I wanted to ask, do you use steam deck tools or any other program to make the controls work? I’ve been told that using steam deck tools can potentially ban you from destiny. I wanted to see what you use when you play destiny? Thank you :)
If your planning to install windows on your steam deck, you shouldve just boughten a rog ally at that point, rog ally has way more performance with windows.
Except that steam deck runs games better because the hardware isn't being wasted trying run windows bloat. Windows hates gamers, we should hate them too.
Damn i'm very tempted to insall windows, i know it may break my steam deck but i just spent a fortune in destiny 2, elder scrolls online and vermintide 2 and i can't even play them, i have other good games but those 3 are my favs. Curse all.
For me personally games like GTA v and doom eternal when it comes to their mods just wouldn't work well on wine, so I just stuck to windows for ease of use.
Depending on the game, you might experience lower FPS for example tiny teen Wonderland runs better in Steam West then it does in windows, but it’s never like utterly Game renewing differences and yes, it does have worse battery life but it’s not like the previous battery. Life was amazing so I was just gonna be a little worse. That’s due to windows more extensive background tasks.
@@JustSomeJacob thanks. I also saw a video where the guy said that half of the games that he tried just don't work. Like black screen or just don't start. Did you have such problems? Also do you use official drivers or custom drivers from community?
@@IgorDyx i use the official drivers which the most recent one that has been released, I believe it from like November of last year I haven’t experienced any of those issues that you were referring to that might be because the video you are referring to might be older or we’re using custom drivers that I’m unaware of
I did a video where I would replace my desktop with the steam deck, so I used my steam deck for everything I use my desktop for so that included all the editing and video creation I typically do.
Wait for Valve release for Windows driver, or wait for community driver or write your own. It's the same situation for people who use Linux or Hackintosh.

So glad I came across your video, been wanting to dual boot my steamdeck JUST so I can play Destiny 2 on it
How to take the best thing about the Steam Deck and make it into the worst thing.
You shouldn't install Windows 11 on anything honestly if it can at all be helped.
Agreed

Yup
Amén!🙏

@@chowna7941Just use an external SSD hard drive rather than always having to open up your steam deck to replace the SSD it’ll save you a lot of time.
yes,i play offline games in win11,and play online games in steam os. save your money for more important things
So if i dont want to buy games from steam . do you recomended me to install windows on steam deck for quac..k gaming ?
Ye if you’re gonna sail the seas use windows it’s easier overall
@@slimmy1849its actually as easy on Linux. Just add the exe to Steam and Start it with Proton, same as any Game.
I’ve had windows for months is has improved the only thing that still remains is the brightness once you hit zero you can just redrag the bar back to zero and it will go dimmer but it has been working great besides that I’m able to play destiny 2 with mid settings and it’s very fun have to get used to a smaller screen but after that it feels great everything works great and I would recommend a mini Bluetooth keyboard makes life easier

Used Windows on the Steam Deck, was an absolute mess, went back to Steam OS enough said.
Windows is bad enough on windows, I'm already trying to get all my other machines to run without it
Can you run spreadsheet and word on steam os?
Nice video I have both steam deck and Rog Ally so it doesn’t bother me 😂
No thank you, windows 10 is better

Buy an OLED and then a laptop, got it!
Yo juego COD WarZone sin ningún problema en mi steam deck oled con steamOS.

It won’t break if you do it right. Even if it does you can always Reimage it to get it back to its original stock settings as when you first got it.
I would rather watch the WNBA than installing windows
this is probably the most creative comment i have seen os far lol
🥶😂
No
I'm considering replacing SteamOS with Windows on my Steam Deck, I just have no interest in Linux.
Does playing Steam Deck on windows while charging damage the battery?
no
err... microsoft said they were working on a handheld mode but I doubt that would help it get the same game performance as steam os
For me personally games like GTA v and doom eternal when it comes to their mods just wouldn't work well on wine, so I just stuck to windows for ease of use.
Hello! Thanks for the video. I heard that on Windows SD has less fps and battery consumption is way higher. Is that true?

Been using windows 11 for almost 9 months
And to be honest it a great experience
Even i did get rid of steam OS
do you have audio issues with the windows? i mean about the audio drivers
@@lionellim480 no issue at all
Every thing works flawlessly
1:40 you got me curious why would you use those programs on steam deck instaed of your PC ?

@@tanawatjukmongkol2178are there rumors?
1 week is not enough to experience the glory of Linux for those that have been brainwashed by windows for their entire lives.
