I have a gaming pc with a 4090 in the other room. I never really stream to the deck, but I’m wondering if that’s how I should be playing the games all the time?

Would it make a big difference with the 90hz OLED steam deck?

    I have a 2070 in the other room and I still pretty much only stream to the deck. I haven’t encountered noticeable lag issues with Sunshine/Moonlight, it triples my battery life, and I don’t have to mess around with Deck settings and game settings to have it run optimally. I just got a dock so now when I have access to the TV I stream to the docked Deck which outputs to my TV. I use my DualSense controller which the Deck reads almost perfectly despite being Bluetooth, and I’m all set. Sure I could play on my PC, but I sit at my desk all day for work so often I feel like sitting on the couch instead, which the Deck is perfect for. I dunno, YMMV with the streaming, but I have been loving it.
