3 days agoI thought the steam deck already had this. Admittedly, I’ve only had mine for about a month, but I don’t think I’ve ever seen it charge to 100%. I think 95% was the highest I’ve seen. It seemed like it had something similar to smart charge like Windows has.
I had one of the Alienware Alphas with the 860m and desktop haswell 4130t. You could swap in a 4160 but your big enemy would be heat.
I swapped the steam OS for windows and threw in some cheap 240gb adata ssd. Ran it for years.
Only problem was the cmos battery would fail every now and again and I’d have to solder a new one in because Dell……
Anyways, I was in it ~$400 and it was a great htpc. Only real problem was haswell couldn’t decode 4k YouTube.
The steam controller I still have, and it’s quirky. But I like it for the mouse function.
