Will i be able to run the following games with pretty high gfx settings?
Cyberpunk
Jedi fallen order and sequel
Baldurs gate 3
Clair Obscure
Star citizen (i know its a scam but i wanna fly around in spaceships)
Transport tycoon deluxe
See how they run on the Steam Deck and then consider the Steam Machine is apparently 6x more powerful.

Ah didnt think to check what the deck could do. Not sure what 6x more powerful means though but it looks like it will be sufficient for what i want to do
Ttd was a joke btw 😅
Well, from the Steam Deck tech specs page:
Processor
6 nm AMD APU
CPU: Zen 2 4c/8t, 2.4-3.5GHz (up to 448 GFlops FP32)
GPU: 8 RDNA 2 CUs, 1.6GHz (1.6 TFlops FP32) APU power: 4-15W
RAM 16 GB LPDDR5 on-board RAM (6400 MT/s quad 32-bit channels)
Then what we know about the Steam Machine, also from the tech specs page:
CPU Semi-custom AMD Zen 4 6C / 12T up to 4.8 GHz, 30W TDP
GPU Semi-Custom AMD RDNA3 28CUs 2.45GHz max sustained clock, 110W TDP
RAM 16GB DDR5 + 8GB GDDR6 VRAM
Cyberpunk for sure will play well, as it was one of the games that testers were able to play on one during a preview event. I believe it's the most demanding game as well, so the rest of your list should work fine as well.
They played it at 4K on ultra settings (with FSR on), and had playable framerates. At 1440p or 1080, you wouldn't even need FSR.
Nice! Id probably play on 1440p unless i get a new monitor before i could get my hands on one (my current monitor is acting up so that might happen)
I will say, Cyberpunk runs a lot better on the Deck than Clair Obscur does. Clair Obscur isn't worth running on Deck IMO - frames drop below 30, hair and shadows are a horrible mess, and in the game's first big cutscene that wasn't an FMV it was so stuttery that it was making the music crackle. Completely ruins the game.
