I want to get the LCD 512 GB Steam Deck, but I have some worries about it

  1. can I put in a 256 GB micro GB card or SD card into it and not worry about storage anymore? Will the loading times drastically increase because the game is on an SD card?
  2. Can I stream my pc games onto the Steam Deck? There are some games I play that aren’t available on steam, or on the deck in general, but I still want to continue playing them.
  3. Will I be limited to only steam games, or can I play other games as well? If so, can you list some places I can get games on the deck?
  4. Is there any better alternative to the steam deck that is under $500 that i should buy instead?

    Thanks for sharing the link. It helps a lot with that explanation.

    About the streaming, I’ve seen some sites explaining how to do it within the desktop steam client on the steam deck. Everywhere i looked it says I need to be connected to the same Wi-Fi as the PC to stream. I’m guessing the answer to this question is a no, but would it be possible to stream from a different network? The only reason is because my laptop has some exclusive games and also some features that i will be missing out on if i only use my Steam deck. And it would be a lot more convenient if i could play my PC games from a different location, as long as my laptop is connected to my router (if that would help on the steam deck side).
