How to Turn Off Steam Deck Performance Overlay
Turning off the performance overlay on your Steam Deck is super easy! Just hold down the 'Steam' button to bring up the Quick Access menu, then navigate to 'Performance' and there you'll see the option to toggle the Performance Overlay on or off. It's a great way to declutter your screen, especially if you're not constantly monitoring your system's performance.
