The new Valve Steam Deck OLED didn’t just change the screen: Almost every part of the device has had some sort of revision, from the screws to the power topology of the motherboard. Some of these changes happened silently in the Voyager platform refresh for the Steam Deck, but the majority of large changes are brand new. Memory underwent relocation and now uses better modules, the cooling solution has had its fan flipped and thickened, and the controller component PCBs have had some consolidation and durability improvements. In this tear-down of the new Steam Deck OLED, we’ll compare the new Steam Deck vs. the original, old Steam Deck “LCD” model.

      I guess I don’t watch enough videos to have noticed, but are arrows a problem now? I can’t imagine them being more annoying than ‘thumbnail face’!

        Arrows and emojis have just been so painfully prevalent in thumbnails desperate for attention. I don’t actually hold it against GN (or any channel), can’t really help that it’s what people click. It just seems so “not GN” lol.

      At least it’s accurate and not some sort of clickbait
