The Steam Deck runs a custom AMD APU, and it’s fast enough to handle most modern games at playable frame rates. You can expect performance similar to a mid-tier gaming PC!

It's surprisingly quick! The Steam Deck can run AAA titles smoothly, especially if you tweak the settings a bit.
Honestly, it’s not a gaming beast but gets the job done. Think of it as a decent mid-range gaming PC in your hands.
I’ve had mine since launch, and it’s smooth sailing for most games. It handles demanding titles pretty well. For example, I played The Witcher 3 and it ran like a charm!
