I mentioned the overlay because now (and before caused perf and other issues) if you don't disable the overlay the allowing tearing option does nothing.
Neither did I, I don't think it's particularly different from a regular screen. OLED does feel smoother to me for some reason, though that's comparing my computer monitors.
I wouldn't feel remorse over that, you joined the cool gamers club and that's what matters! Did you at least get the 20% off they were pushing here and there?

There's lag on the deck? I never noticed.

Most people aren't that sensitive to it, particularly with controller rather than mouse & k/b input.
EDIT: And looks like there is some significant improvements in input lag even on the LCD with newer firmware.

Do you not notice any input lag on your Deck when playing at 30fps? Feels absolutely horrible to me, so I'm hopeful this will fix it.

Doesn't the allow tearing plus disabling the overlay solves most of that? Of course you will have tearing which is not great I guess.

I never tried disabling the overlay but allowing tearing does not do much. Should get my Steam Deck OLED this week so I can test there.

Thanks, will keep this in mind when I test some games on the new Steam Deck.

The kind of person that wants to play Elden Ring on the go but can't because the input lag is too damn high.

Valve patched proton so on Linux in general it performed better until either the game or GPU drivers got an update.

If I remember right, there was stuttering from the DX12 implementation that valve was able to fix. I don't know about input lag though.

Saves a ton of battery life, and if 30fps matters or not depends entirely on the game.

I haven't used it that much at 30 fps, maybe that's why I never noticed.

As someone who bought a Steam Deck this summer, feels bad man

Not this summer... But I bought two Decks so it Hurst double the second one I could have waited a little bit more... And gotten a better one.
That said... Now I feel better for opening one as if I break it... I have a excuse to get a new one... And hold on with the other meanwhile.

Don't worry, it isn't noticeable

I’ll give you 50$ for it

Ah, so this is why zombies were festing on me in Resident Evil Remastered. It makes sense now xD
