Well its one thing to tell that in comments like this, and another thing to prove it with benchmarks. And not all games are CPU limited, it depends.

Why? Full RayTracing with highest quality settings on some games is even for a 5090 too much. So it makes sense to play them at lower resolution (in example with upscaling, but its still lower res). Especially if you aim for very high FPS. Maybe for some games you aim to play at 240 fps, in which case 1440p or even 1080p is the only option, not 4k. Depending on the games.

And if you are not even considering to play at lower res, you might be interested in how it compares to other cards you already own and play at 1080p. Just to get an idea of how much it improves. Its not a wrong market, you just don’t see his or her use case.

Good, but its too late. I don’t care for those games anymore. At least I might check future games out. This should have been done day one.

100% - first gen Deck

I am not a huge Deck user, meaning most of the PC time and games are played on my actual PC. The Deck is only a secondary device, for a few times here and there. I have over 130 hours on RetroArch, and a few hours on various other stuff. Therefore its expected that the battery is still in good condition.

Why can’t the Steam Deck and other handheld PCs coexist with the Switch 2? Both are not interchangeable, just because its a handheld. You are not forced to buy a handheld PC to play certain games. This is not a situation like Playstation vs Xbox.

If you hate your Steam Deck. :D Jokes aside, I am always flabbergasted by the ingenuity and knowledge of extreme modders like him. He has a use case and first it sounded stupid, but after reading a little bit it makes sense for him. I guess there is no solution like this one can buy, right? Or is it too expensive? It just hurts me personally seeing the Deck crippled like that (just jokingly talking here, man I am funny as hell today). But there was some really cheap refurbished old Decks sold on the Steam site.

Interesting project, but not my taste to be honest.
