I mean, It's smart to run everything at 40FPS to begin with for battery life and whatnot... Trying to run all new games at 60FPS on Steam Deck is pretty doofy.

How's the HDR support for this on PC? Last I checked it was super wonky/not working at all, and I decided I would only ever get this on console.

Read the Steam Deck reports, this is the best resource I'd say for Steam Deck users. Look into Decky Loader + protondb plugin as well for when you're looking to install a game you already own.

Short answer: low everything 40 fps with dips seems okay.

I always do 40hz mode on my SD. Foolish to aim for 60 on a handheld, given battery constraints.

This game plays well on SD. I didn't have any issues using custom proton.

I assume that any recent-ish AAA game isn't going to run 60 fps on the Steam Deck.

Here's some reports with me stretching my OLED for what I remember
Thief (2014) could hit 60 fps
Assassin's Creed Odyssey (2018) not stable 60 with low everything and 70% internal resolution
Immortals Fenyx Rising (2022; arguably not AAA fidelity for the time) I'd call it a solid enough 60, not ideal but wasn't as painful to play as other games
Death Stranding Director's Cut (2019/2022) First boss encounter I was probably holding 40 fps on low everything, FSR 2.0 on balanced
Destroy All Human 2 (2022; not AAA) was hard to run, can't remember details
Star Wars Squadrons (2020) was actually a good time.

For people saying aiming for 60 on handheld is foolish, I'd mostly agree but I have the OLED and I can easily get 2 hours with ACEmbarrassmentdyssey with 60 Hz refresh (but not generating 60 fps) and CPU + GPU utilization quite close to max.

I think it's still wonky… it seems washed out a bit…

It's not terrible but I need to do my tweaking to see if I can get a better pic. This is on a Samsung G7 monitor so nothing super high in the HDR capabilities
