MODERATORS
Depending on game, you can generally run at 720p or 1080p fine. You can do linear upscale (from the Deck's QAM menu>power settings) to upscale to 4k for no real performance hit, but it won't improve the graphical appearance either. Upscaling to 4k using FSR/etc is possible in some games, but usually has too much of a performance hit to be practical.
I've read about the Steam Deck's upscaling settings, and it's pretty promising, more than sufficient for my needs! I didn't know you could use linear upscaling through the QAM menu without a performance hit, definitely worth trying. Thanks for the detailed info!
