“I'm assuming no Ray Tracing capability? And how does this handle high end games, graphically? Where is the processing done and is there a good compatibility listing?”

It’s technically has ray tracing capability, but the hardware is comparatively low end compared to like Xbox series or a PC with a dedicated GPU. It wouldn’t shock me if there’s games that are usable with Ray tracing on though, and it’s AMD’s second generation hardware with ray tracing. If nothing else, it’ll be more capable with Ray tracing then steam deck is, both because it’s running windows, which allows access to it while steam deck doesn’t yet, and also because the CPU/GPU, you are kind of two generations, newer than steam deck’s, and bigger. BE AWARE THAT IF YOU’RE LOOKING AT PERFORMANCE COMPARISONS, I’VE ALREADY SEEN INVALID COMPARISONS WITH STEAM DECK AT 720p and this at 1080p, and without bothering to tell us what TDP they have it set up, and then declaring “the performance is about the same!” And it’s like… Yeah, but you’re running the game at 2.25 times higher resolution, and you may not be using its full capabilities on top of that. Steam deck it’s kind of on the edge for a lot of games it seems like, not being quite powerful enough for some of the newest stuff. That’s really current gen, as it basically performs like a launch version of a last gen Xbox one/ps4 from 10 years ago. This will at worst give you a good chunk more headroom to run newer games, though it’s still not going to match even an Xbox Series S, much less an X, but still. I think 720 P for a lot of stuff will be a good resolution, and then a lot of game support, image, reconstruction techniques. Though it’s nice the screen has that resolution and frame rate, I think for a lot of high-end games, aiming for 720p + 30 or 60 fps will be a better idea, and this will be able to push stuff better than Steamdeck with those settings.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.RGT85 did a great review video on YouTube, go check it out, played Spiderman Remastered in the video, compared it to Steamdeck
