I’ve been on the fence for a while thinking about getting myself a steam deck. I got a great gaming computer and I’m wondering if it can possible accompany it in some way, or is it just the excitement of getting new tech kicking in.

What do you do with your steam deck? What makes you glad that you got it?

If you’re on the same network as your gaming PC, and have a halfway decent router, you can use Steam’s remote play to get the performance of your gaming PC on your Deck. Works great from my experience and would allow you to play titles that the deck struggles with.

Oh wow this is actually really helpful. I just figured I can do that with Moonlight and my iPad 12.9 inch so that’s really nice for now
