Not feeling a need to replace mine anytime soon. It's able to run more than enough stuff I haven't played yet to cover any time I might want to spend gaming away from home. And at home, I have my desktop.

Also there is steam link if it isn't beefy en9ugh for a AAA title and your desktop is beefy enough

There're so many games I haven't played so it's easy to find games that perform well on the Deck. That'll still be the case for a long time, so I don't know I'll actually have to upgrade. But I'm also still fine with an RX 580.

I agree, honestly. The way I have it configured, I can even run Starfield (although the way I initially had it, the graphics looked like something off of a PS2/3 or a 3DS, and now the loading screens actually give me plenty of time to read the loading screen tips).

And the indie games (and also Elder Scrolls Online) that I normally play don’t even give me that much trouble.
