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?

I have a switch to mostly play Pokemon. But for other games, either they're not available on switch or loading times are very long. I have an old gtx 970 and 6700k but I don't feel like big spend on a modern build is valuable right now with how casual my gaming is. The steam deck gave me a gaming computer comprise and I really like it. $500 for a good enough computer that plays a lot.

Yeah I guess Switch VS SteamDeck is a hard choice. Basically the steam deck can have them both so that could possibly be both
