Interesting. I was about to buy an A2, I'm surprised the Evo (not being "A-Rated") performs as well as it does. A Rated cards should in theory be faster for games and apps than the Evo. Guess Im keeping my Evo
Interesting, I stick with the U number now when looking at performance and the EVO is a U3 which makes sense when comparing the other cards. Thanks for watching and I hope you found it interesting.
Having major issues with Batocera V39 on OLED and SanDisk cards... Trying my image on a SP card to see if it works, no luck with both 1 TB Sandisks Ive used...
i think its great if u have good internet connection just wish they had dead or alive fighting game and things are difficult for me since i got no job and cant buy a xbox one my got stolen but still have my account
Ran into long load times playing fallout 4 on deck… and it’s cause I have a SanDisk Ultra (A1) card. Maybe I’ll upgrade to extreme now 😂 I prioritized 1TB instead of speed - doh!
You were the 1st result in a google search! Might as well give it a try, I only need to know the os reinstall part though. Dropping in the Crucial 1TB in my original 256 model.
I have a steam account with games downloaded but on my new macbook its very slow to play and load /: will i be able to play if i get a backbone bc i have steam?
Thanks for the video. I was finally able to get a Steam Deck on sale during Steam's Summer Sale. I got the 64 GB version for 10% off and around the same time, I was able to get a 1 TB San Disk Extreme Micro SD card from the Amazon Prime sale for under $100 shipped. Incredible values all the way around. The only downside for me of the Micro SD card is that a portion of the game is still saved on the internal memory of the Steam Deck. Even with a couple of big games I have downloaded onto my Steam Deck, I did not run out of space on my Micro SD card but I started to run out of space on my internal memory. Later down the road, I will upgrade to a larger SSD. Again, thanks for the video.
Thank you so much. This means so much to me whenever someone enjoys a video. Yes, totally look into upgrading the NVME drive. It’s super easy and I even did a video on it! Enjoy your new Steam Deck and happy gaming!
@@JTheraos I was thinking about a quick and easy way to expand my memory right when I got my Deck because I have a ton of games on Steam. Prices have changed very quickly in the Micro SD space especially with the release of the new 1.5 TB micro SD Card. I originally bought the faster San Disk Extreme 1 TB card for my Steam Deck and love it. You pay a little more for the ease of use but since then I also bought a 1 TB NVMe SSD. It was actually cheaper than my micro SD card but I did have to take my system apart and reinstall the OS to use it but having close 2 TB of gaming on the go is great. By far, the Steam Deck is one of the most consumer friendly portables out there. Now I am hoping I can get that beautiful new OLED screen for my Deck and install it myself.
thanks for informing me on the UHS-1 standard. I bought a sandisk extreme pro but cancelled it for a cheaper samsung, as that sandisk I was getting hit near 190mb/s which isnt' fully useable sadly (I plan to run windows on the microsd)
Hi, ty for the vid but i have a problem. Does the game have to be in the main memory of the deck for this method to work? I can't do this as I have the 64gb model. How can I run the launcher if I install it to the main memory and the game to the SD Card. I found the folder number where the Launcher is installed. I installed the game to sd card. I added it to Steam, I modified the code you gave with the folder number that launcher installed. I added code to CB2077's command line, but when I run the game, the launcher doesn't work. Do you have a suggestion?
I couldn't tell you, but the Steam Deck most likely won't be able to obtain the max benefits of either card. I would say get which one is cheaper and you should be golden.
Nice detailed video! Would recommend fixing either your lighting or your color correction next time though! Maybe it's camera setting too, lots of blown out spots!
