I know this question is likely asked all the time, but if I want the best performance possible then should I spend $500 dollars on a steam deck or a gaming pc? The pc I have is very old and underperforming as of now and don’t know wether to replace it with a $500 pc or a steam deck.
The reason I went with 'Deck is I’ve already invested in newer video card for PC, but its CPU is the bottleneck, meanwhile that’s maxed for the motherboard.
PC draws 10x the amount of power in use.
A $500 PC isn’t going to perform like a Deck, the value is exceptional.
Portability, battery backup, included display, are all included benefits.
