The game uses the 4A Engine and is a very graphically demanding game. Released in 2019 and also an Enhanced Version in 2021, Metro Exodus is the third in the Metro series, we are testing the non-Enhanced version. FSR helped in all cases in this game between 20 and 25%. If you are after the best performance though, “Low” will be smoother. However, we were surprised how well “Medium” did especially with FSR. At “High” settings, the game is not really playable, and even with FSR just barely does the job. This game was demanding but surprisingly did better than we had anticipated. Therefore we wanted to see what happens with it on the Steam Deck. The Steam Deck was again tested using Low, Medium, and High Graphics Presets.Ĭyberpunk 2077 is notoriously known for its intense graphics and demanding performance, even on discrete GPUs. This game also supports AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution (FSR).

We have the game patched to version 1.52 for our testing and perform a long manual run-through driving in the game’s open world. Cyberpunk 2077Ĭyberpunk 2077 was released in December of 2020 and uses the REDengine 4. High settings did suffer from quite a bit of texture loading delay, however. The Steam Deck actually was very smooth even on high settings and the game looked amazing. FSR helped performance by 10-20% and especially made the game more appealing to play at “High” settings. However, if you are ok with less than 60FPS the game performed above 30FPS in all settings. Naturally, it was the best performing in “Low”, and was the closest to hitting 60FPS with FSR enabled. In the graph, you can see the Steam Deck performed rather well in this game across the board. Data was collected in low, medium and high graphics presets. The testing was done employing a manual run-through encompassing jungle, water, villages, and gun battles. This game supports AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution (FSR). We installed the HD Texture pack and it was turned on. FarCry 6įarCry 6 was released in October of 2021 and uses the Dunia Engine. If you want a smooth experience in this game, you’ll be playing at low graphics settings with or without FSR. The texture loads can be a bit painful at high settings. The game is beautiful to look at and runs very well in low and medium. You can see from the graph that FSR improved framerate by 20 to 30%. The gameplay was surprisingly smooth in low and medium settings. The graphics utilization was nearly 100%. This new game gave the Steam Deck a good workout, we specifically chose it because it is new and graphically intense even on desktops with the latest discrete GPUs. The game was run in DX12 and ASYNC was enabled at each of the settings selected. The game supports a multitude of modern graphic effects, including FSR upscaling to improve performance. Dying Light 2ĭying Light 2 was released in February 2022 on the PC. This game was super smooth, with no hitches or pauses, and maintained high framerates at the highest possible settings for an awesome gameplay experience.
When the frame limiter is set at 60FPS, likewise the game will not budge from 60FPS.
The game looks and plays wonderfully on the Steam Deck with every setting as high as it can go.Īs you can see in the graph, the Steam Deck will run a steady 240FPS in unlimited mode. Released in 2004 using the Source engine, Half-Life 2 has stood the test of time.
It would be a sin to review a gaming device from Valve and not include perhaps one of the icons of first-person shooter/action games. The run-through was recorded on a webcam for stability with the framerate visible and framerates were added up by hand and calculated by hand, a painstaking process that yielded accurate results since there was no framerate capturing software. Again, FSR was also enabled to gauge benefit in FPS when possible. Games were played using manual run-throughs at Low, Medium, and High graphic presets. Ray Tracing is not supported on the Steam Deck, as of this writing date, except in very limited circumstances. We definitely wanted to see how FSR helps the gameplay experience on Steam Deck. Three of the selections also included settings for AMD’s FidelityFX Super Resolution (FSR) upscaling. We chose a group of games from the Steam library as well as Epic Games and Ubisoft to gauge gaming performance at various graphics presets.
