If so, which ones? I am looking to game and talk to friends over discord on my Steam Deck. No FPS, more bullet hells, ARPGs, etc. Thank you!!

BT latency depends so much on the exact model of headphone it's almost impossible to give an accurate answer, other than "If it supports AptX LL, it's going to be as good as gets."
I personally can't notice it while using Airpod Pro 2's (around 125ms) with my Deck unless I'm playing an actual rhythm game. Then it completely messes me up and I switch to wired ones.

my gaming PC is currently outdated (970)

GTX 970 is faster than the GPU on the Deck, though...

Thank you! Yeah, I'm not looking to play any sound sensitive games like rhythm or FPS. So its good to know the consensus is that most people dont seem to notice it.

970 may be faster but I can play a few more games I couldnt before on the card (Cyberpunk, Balders Gate, etc). The resolution isnt amazing or anything but I just want to play :) Not trying to upgrade ATM, which is a significant investment. Hoping this would help with eventual transition
