Installing Steam Deck OS on a $7.99 Value Village Laptop

What build did you use as the STEAM OS! I Have a B550m board with 3100x cpu and 8gb ram (2x4) and AMD MSI RX580 Gaming 8gb GPU with a 1.5tb Sata drive. Also have a 512gb M.2 gen 3 (2800-3400mb/s) but have not bothered to add the m.2 yet. What OS will work best? Also was thinking of dual booting win 11 and steam os on my 5800x/3060ti build but heard NVIDIA is bad.

Me crying wishing I could find an 8dollar laptop with an i7-6th gen 😭

that are the pcs at my school. these take 4 mins to display a website and i can see the gp refresh. trash in even worse

The big picture interface changed?

Til: Value Village is also in America
Thought it was just a Canadian thing

I had this laptop my first 2 years of college. Motherboard died and has been in pieces in a bag since 😅

How did you get 30 FPS on TF2? I have the same exact hardware, running Void Linux and get 200~ FPS.

glorious eggroll

Bit late here, but here are somethings that could have been causing poor performance. 1. Single channel RAM, I didn't see a second stick on the logicboard, so unless it was soldered, then that would cut performance. 2. Thermal throttling, I didn't see thermal paste be reapplied, so I'm assuming that it wasn't, and with the age of the machine, the paste is probably rock hard and with the GPU being on the same die as the CPU they both could have been throttling from a lack of heat dissipation. 3 Shader Compilation, seen other mention this but if the shaders weren't compiled then that would result in all the stutters.

the laptop I am watching this on has worse specs and cost 10x that in same condition

OH NO! Why is dedowkayed wam guy crying 😢

as soon as I saw u in the 6th gen processor, ooohh boy this is gonna be crap

ı have i5 2 generation processor and intel hd graphics 3000 gpu wait and i have 8gb of ram but some how in TF2 in full max settings i get 100 fps

he went with the Apple method with that ssd installation

the random "iphone disconnected" was so funny to me

love this video format it feels more engaging ngl, keep up the good work bringus

Bro i had this laptop wtf

I used a Lenovo Laptop like that

i have dumped almost 90 hours into Skyrim SE at 15fps i weirdly find it playable

Really Really

WOMP WOMP

I could am on prime and come back tomrrow but you know we not gunna do that 😂 cut stight to the solution

Did you recompile tge mesa driver for intel hd and installed the intel-gpu-utils?

That's literally that laptop that I currently use except I have the one without the gpu. Mine only has integrated graphics.

who are you trying to fool. laptops dont cost 7 bucks. smh

Not me knowing I played Skyrim on a system that was as bad or worse than that and got to level 20 or something like that and this was before I knew about exploits (this was pre-HD edition though).

my pc rn is worse am i cooked

"Value Village"

How to tell you're canadian without telling you're canadian. 😅

thank you for your service

oh! I have a Flex-4 1470 and I use steam + steam link on it all the time!

Dude, amazing video! So good actually that I disabled my adblocker and watched your ad :)

Could use a "fancy" universal laptop charger. Had one like 90W which had exchangeable end plugs to fit all kinds of weirdo laptop standards. The plugs were like 4 pin in, whatever setup out, cause IIRC 2 of the in-pins were used as a "sense" for a resistance hidden in them plugs. Open ended (aka no plug) it would output like 15V, and depending on resistance it would go up to 20V.

Alternatively if that PSU you use fully works, use the damn tracking mode, and then run both channels in parallel for double the amps out :)

Sorry for necro comment - YT recommended me your videos like a day ago and I watch some older ones that it continues to recommend hehe.

How 😢
