Just wondering if releasing the steam deck 2 on arm would be a huge deal. I know arm is famous for being more efficient, but would it still be better, even when using FEX?

Unless they can make Proton performance work emulating both the windows environment layer and a different CPU arch then I'd be very surprised to see this happen.

That's exactly what they're doing on the steam frame. I guess we'll see how it works out there.
