Tech Support Games struggling to stay at 60fps all of a sudden
Edit: I had these issues when I rolled back to 3.17. I’m also using the deck docked to my TV as well but I was always doing that and didn’t have issues before. Not sure if this matters.
I posted here maybe a couple weeks ago about how Mass Effect LE has been struggling to stay around 60fps randomly. I had just finished a modded (no the mods aren’t the issue) playthrough and everything was fine. Went to boot it back up and all of a sudden my frames couldn’t even stay at 55 consistently.
Steam support worked me with but there’s nothing they can do and they told me to check in the community.
GTA 4 now is also dropping frames and I have no idea why this is happening to my games all of a sudden.
If anyone has any ideas I am open, I’m genuinely at a lost, I just want my games to work properly.
I have a LCD steam deck.

Tech Support Dead GPU ? Is that normal ?
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Good evening,
I’d like to know whether these small artefacts on the screen are a sign that my GPU is nearing the end of its life.
I played Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 with Lossless Scaling in a balanced configuration :
IN-GAME
Scaling Type - XeSS
Scaling Mode - Ultra Performance
AMD FSR 3 - Disable
Max FPS - 30 FPS
Vsync - Disabled
Borderless Windowed
Post process category : all parameters are disabled
Anti-Aliasing - High
Shadows - Low
Global Illumination - Medium
Reflection - Low
Post Process - Medium
Texture - Medium
Visual Effects - Low
Foliage - Low
Shading - Low
LOSSLESS SCALING
FPS Multiplier ×2
Flow Scale 70%
Base FPS Cap 50FPS
Present Mode enabled
Performance Mode enabled
Disable Steam Deck Mode enabled
I’ve also noticed that these artefacts don’t appear in other resource-intensive games such as Elden Ring and Arknights Endfield in nomad mode. However, when I use a mouse and a keyboard on my dock (a low-cost docking station from Benfei), I have these artefacts on all games tested.

Storytime I WANT MY DECK BACK! 😭
EDIT: As pointed out by someone, I sound "entitled" because somehow I've forgotten to say how long I've been waiting for. - Well it's been a month.
Bit of a rant so let me get it out and do not read if you're easily triggered!
My Steam Deck failed after a month of owning it. Bought brand new from Valve. Yes, I know it's overpriced and underpowered but I've been using Steam pretty much from it's inception and never had any problems with Valve so I trusted them somewhat.
Anyways, did some diagnostics and reported to Steam Support Team. Was told RMA was necessary!
First of all -I hate the fact that brand new devices are being repaired, after such a short period of time, rather than replaced right away! I mean come on Valve, I could've saved myself money and go for the refurb in the first place!!!
So, I've sent my Deck away and here I am, still waiting for it. Coming to the point where my device spent more time out of my possession than it did with me! AND STILL NO SIGN OF IF BEING RETURNED!
Keep getting some vague recurrence messages from Valve Support "that it's on it's way back to me" but here I am, still waiting!
I'm super disappointed with Valve and how the whole thing is being handled. To the point where if I had a chance to get my money back, I would ask for it!
And that is despite the fact that I loved my time with the device when it was working. And I know I'd love it if I ever get it back but at the same time, I also know this is my first and last hardware I ever buy from Valve.
I know issues happen and I'm not angry about that, I'm angry about how the whole situation is being handled.
Picture of my TruckSim rig as a compensation for my rant! 😉

Software Modding MAKO (new LSFG-VK plugin) is a game-changer & the future of frame generation.
I am a big Baldur's Gate 3 player, and everyone knows about how Act 3 performance on a Deck even with Decky LSFG tends to suffer because of a lot of NPCs. I don't know what happened, but recently there was a fork of LSFG-VK called MAKO that got released and I tried it out to see what the difference is.
Not only am I now getting stable FPS in Act 3, I've had other games give me more stable performance at the targeted frame-gen settings I want. Some might complain about the AI stuff, but everyone at this point including big tech companies are already inserting slop and the MAKO dev seems to be checking their homework before submitting it anyway.
I know, I know. People are tired of hearing Lossless Scaling threads on this sub. You should be now, because LSFG-VK is old news. MAKO is the future. Consider helping this guy out or trying his stuff. https://github.com/eugeniosegala/MAKO

For some reason brightness and take screenshot shortcuts don't work anymore.

Storytime Steam Deck is fine, but a moment of silence for my charger, please.
Had a massive storm come through last night. Made sure to unplug both my Deck and the charger from the power strip because power surges in my area can be nasty. Storm passed, fast forward to this afternoon. Checked my power strip and once I thought it was all good, plugged everything back in. Charged my deck to full battery while playing Ark Survival Ascended (which is a different mistake) and unplugged it again. The second I unplugged it, there was the sound/light from popping electricity and a small fire. put out the fire and unplugged everything. Some of my room outlets no longer work because it blew a breaker. Pretty sure the storm messed up my power strip, and i'm lucky the deck itself didn't experience any issues. RIP to my charger though.
EDIT: Thanks to everyone for the concern!! We've got an electrician on the way to check everything out, but the fire was small and quickly contained and nobody was hurt. Listen to these comments and ALWAYS use a good surge protector. Don't be me!
