The Series S is a much faster machine. Larger GPU, faster memory, double the CPU cores, higher clocks it can keep at full speed more frequently; it’s really no contest.
Not to say the Deck is bad by any means.
But if you were to sell it, and you are worried about fidelity, I’d save up until you are ready to immediately trade it for a Steam Machine.



It’s good to have this documented, thanks. It’s one thing for everyone to “know” they’re Tankies, it’s another to have compiled evidence and A/B examples like this to point to.
