One of my favorite games is red, dead redemption two and it crashes all the time on the steam deck. I get that it’s not fully supported, but it does. I think the main reason that it crashes is because it runs out of memory. I don’t think it’s because 16 GB isn’t enough. I think it’s because proton doesn’t do a very good job of clearing the memory and getting rid of assets that are no longer needed so the longer you play the more it fills up that buffer until there’s no space left, and then it crashes the entire deck. Every single time it’s crashed. It’s been right after it got to about the 16 GB mark for memory usage.

I have a very specific case on why I wanna upgrade it but if it’s that deep to do it then I’m out. I use a microsd to run Microsoft so I can play anti cheat games specifically gta5. GTA shows me that I’m using all but 1000gb of my ram and it’s uncomfortable to see that lol. It crashed once but after I had closed gta.not sure why. Played it again and ran fine. Think I’ll just have to see if it crashes in the future. Using minimum settings btw ^
Extremely slightly, and only with high texture settings. RAM-heavy games and having a sit ton of mods will benefit. Other than that, it's a pointless upgrade that costs more money than what you'll get back

why Luke from SF6 talking about steam deck?
evil af idea, though would likely be expensive af.. steamdeck oled's core on the lcd version mobo alongside the upgraded ram..
Please advise how to run xbox 360 games on steam deck?
A Deck with 24GB RAM & 6GB VRAM, and I mean proper on GPU DIE VRAM, would be a massive upgrade, you would see anything from 2.5x performance boost, to 3-4X.
Steam Deck uses an APU, meaning that wouldn't be possible unless the APU in the Deck has HBM, and that'd mean 30GB of RAM total for 24GB + 6GB
@@FluffyPuppyKasey Technically, the Deck uses an SoC, as a proper APU has native on DIE V-RAM, like the XBOX ONE or KabyLakeG, which was and still is an absolute powerhouse APU using a AMD Radeon GPU with native onDIE 4GB HBM2 V-RAM (combined with a decent Intel CPU, 4GB HBM2 is equal to 8GB GDDR), this APU is a great example of how powerful and APU is versus a standard SoC that has to use system RAM, which just cripples a GPU's performance potential, the standard AMD CPU/GPU combo (SoC) without native V-RAM was less than 10% of the performance of the KabyLakeG APU, and Intel's Iris chips, that had two versions, one with eDRAM, and one without, otherwise identical, the eDRAM equipped chip had 3-4 times the minimum FPS performance, more in some games when at max TDP, just 512mb of onDIE eDRAM gave the iGPU over 400% FPS, so there is precedent for a proper APU from AMD, an APU from them, using RDNA4, with 4-6GB of HBM3 (equivalent of 8-12GB GGDR), and a CPU with 2 core lower TDP mode to give more TDP to the GPU in GPU heavy games, say a 4-5watt dual-core mode (switch off extra cores), or AMD could make an APU with 4 performance cores and 2 low power cores, even just a standard RDNA4, Ryzen 9000 based APU with 1gb eDRAM GPU cache would really make a massive improvement in performance, especially if it had a CPU X3D V-Cache (an X3D APU).

An 15-20watt APU capable of locked 120FPS 800p Cyberpunk 2077 @ high GPU preset, or 240FPS line-doubled 400p medium GPU preset (line-doubled 400p looks amazing on a sub 10-inch display, as good as native 800p), would be perfect, being able to play on a 240Hz OLED display with full 240FPS, so you get really smooth motion-resolution/clarity and low-latency input-response, would be perfect, especially for FPS, SHMUPS, 2D platformers like Sonic Mania or Freedom Planet et cetera, and it would be amazing for emulation, being able to properly simulate a CRT on a Steam Deck would be a game changer, especially with 240Hz HDR-BFI injection via RetroArch (has native BFI), or if Valve made the Deck 3.0 native 240Hz HDR OLED with built-in hardware accelerated HDR-BFI, 240Hz would allow for sub 4ms BFI with great motion-resolution even for 60FPS content and low latency input response times, would be amazing.

whats the car game?
I have a very specific case on why I wanna upgrade it but if it’s that deep to do it then I’m out. I use a microsd to run Microsoft so I can play anti cheat games specifically gta5. GTA shows me that I’m using all but 1000gb of my ram and it’s uncomfortable to see that lol. It crashed once but after I had closed gta.not sure why. Played it again and ran fine. Think I’ll just have to see if it crashes in the future. Using minimum settings btw ^
So is an ROG Ally with BazziteOS (Basically SteamOS but better)
2:30 what games is this?
Looks like Cyberpunk 2077, but IDK
Trepang 2
This has nothing to do with Steam Decks, Specter I just love your hair in this video. Seriously though, another banger vid per usual 🔥
Steam Deck Oled + 32 gigs ram = killer 💀
But that's just a steam theory!
but can it run crysis?
If you use decky plugins your brain must be mush
16gb of ram. Is minimum in 2024. 32gb is midrange and 64 to 196gb is sweet
OLED with 64 gigs?
mans has def been in the gym
can you do mod battery rogally OG. ❤
Ally X has already proven that more ram fixes performance issues.
Extremely slightly, and only with high texture settings. RAM-heavy games and having a sit ton of mods will benefit. Other than that, it's a pointless upgrade that costs more money than what you'll get back
your channel logo is literally Gameloft. might wanna get that changed before you get sued.
Bro the next optimum
