I remember reading a reddit post that led me to picking this card. I’ve been using it for a while now. No complaints at all.

I’ve got this up and running with Vortex. I can’t give you an exact guide, because I just kept clobbering it together until it started working. Also, this was done right before the new Steam update. It probably doesn’t affect it, but IDK.

Pikdum’s Tools for setting up Vortex: This video (read description!) seems to get you most of the way there. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f0lC-alUAGg&t Tools themselves. https://github.com/pikdum/steam-deck

Once it’s all set up I simply go to desktop mode, browse to the mod I want in Firefox (or use the “send tab to device” option from my PC), click on the Mod Manager download, it prompts for an application, Vortex shows up in that list, download and install via Vortex, then I close Vortex, run the “Skyrim Post-Deploy” shortcut that the Pikdum’s toolkit placed on my desktop, switch to gaming mode, and game away.

In the end the setup wasn’t too bad. I ended up downloading a collection from Nexus and I install/remove mods as I want by switching to desktop, using vortex, post-deploy script, and switching back to gaming mode.

Edit: and yes I also have everything on the SD

A Groovy bot replacement for me and my friends.

I got my merit badge after setting it up once. That’s enough for me.

This is true. Most games work out of the box on Steam these days.

I wonder if anyone will make anything out of this.

That’s why I still dual boot. Linux is my default, but I ain’t got time to spend 3 hours making a game work. I stop at 2:59.

For me it’s been XCOM 2, and now Skyrim. As well as Elden Ring a bit.
