  • SteamOS in game mode runs on wayland actually, because it’s using gamescope which is a wayland compositor. My understanding is a lot of applications are still running as x11 and then using xwayland to run on gamescope though. I don’t know if that can be manually bypassed to run directly on wayland or not.

    Desktop mode is always using x11 though.



  • Not a very convenient option, but you can try manually deleting the downloaded configs. According to this website, you can find your downloaded control configuration files at <steam folder>/userdata/<your user number>/241100/remote/controller_config. On steam deck, you can usually find your steam folder by showing hidden files in the file browser (click the 3 bar menu in the upper right for this option), then go to the hidden .steam folder in your home folder, and then follow the steam folder shortcut there.














  • I’ve found I can cap the TDP on several games without any noticeable change in performance. The important part is to remember that you set a cap, if you start getting FPS drops in another part of the game. It sucks to have a game performing poorly, and not remember that you set a TDP limit when you tried the game out months ago.

    There are also some games that have bugged cpu or gpu clock speed, where the game will run one at max clock speed unnecessarily causing extra power drain and performance issues (for example the CPU may be using too much power and staving the GPU, even though the CPU doesn’t need to be running at max speed). For capping cpu you have to use the decky plugin power tools or another method.

    Checking on ProtonDB is a good place to look for recommended performance tweaks, looks like a lot of reviews there mention capping Cassette Beasts at 10 TDP, and a couple more mention capping the GPU speed at 800.
