  With the way that memory prices are going, Valve is going to bring back the 64GB model.

    Honestly, that’s probably why they are consolidating manufacturing around less SKUs.

    Everything sucks.

  Aye, I owned both. Got an LCD when it first came out and bought an OLED when they came out. Treat yourself, in all situations of visual screens OLED is better.

  I just got a 2nd LCD during the sale. Unfortunately it was broken and I’m still waiting on a replacement. With any luck they’ll send me an OLED one instead 😜

  I wonder if DDR prices are a factor. They might lose too much with the lower proved model compared to the OLED models.

    These have DDR4 RAM, right? But Gaben did say that the original $399 price was difficult to hit, so any small increase in component prices might make it impossible.

  I ran out of 512 so fast on legion go s, (sd card reader sucks) Couldn’t go with 256, but ive heard steam deck has a decent reader

    The Deck’s reader does the full 80MB/s UHS-I well enough. It works well electrically, but the ejector sucks. I’ve picked up my system, and had the card randomly hang out like 😛. It is vital to tape over the card to keep it from wandering off on its own.

    I have the 64gb LCD and run most games of sd card. With a quality card, it works really well.

    I just got a 256GB steam deck. It’s do able. But you’ll want a PC nearby with your games installed. Then it’ll just download it from your PC for lightning fast installs.
