Will you upgrade your PC now that you have a steam deck?
Will you upgrade your PC now that you have a steam deck?
Many people have, like me, realized that they use their deck more than their main rig.
For the last few years I've gone from 1080p to 1440p to 4k to 800p and don't think my main box will need to get beefier until the next big VR advancement. My machine is already three years old. I may rock it for another three at this pace.
How many of you will be laying off of CPU/GPU upgrades since handheld are so compelling?

Absolutely! I just enjoy tech, so buying the latest tech and building the best PC I can is a lot of fun. I think I find the tech aspect of gaming more interesting than the games themselves lol. What I am happy about is that the Steam Deck has helped to push Linux gaming forward, and since I run Linux on my desktop and laptop PCs as well as my Deck, everything benefits.
I also preordered a ROG Ally, because while I love my Deck, I want to try out Linux on AMD's latest handheld chips.

You should make a post about it on lemmy when you do, I'm also interested, but not enough to buy one
If you haven't seen it already, ETA PRIME did a ROG Ally Linux video already since he has a review unit. He ran ChimeraOS on it and performance looked quite good on a lot of games.
Oh wow I'll have to look at that later
