How much TDP do you need for a smooth Steam Deck UI?
I know this sounds like a strange question, but has anyone else noticed this?I’m talking about the SteamOS interface itself (Home, Library, Settings), not games.A while ago, the UI felt perfectly smooth even with the TDP limited to 4–5W. At 3W it was already noticeably less smooth, which made sense.After the recent SteamOS updates, it feels like the UI only stays completely smooth at 6W. At 5W I can already notice stuttering when scrolling through the library or opening settings.Is it just me, or has anyone else noticed the same thing? Has the SteamOS UI become more CPU-demanding after recent updates?
