Guy modded his steam deck be as small as possible, with the only intended use to be to play with an external controller and AR glasses.

    Can the Deck even drive VR graphics? It’s a powerhouse at it’s native 1280x900 resolution but it tends to struggle with the most graphically intensive games, much less VR.

      The PS4 could drive VR. I suspect this would be similar. A bit fuzzy, crap framerate in places.

      You could run the simpler games like Beat Saber well enough.

      VR has to render the game twice to give you depth perception, which is a big part of the increased resource requirements.

      This isn’t trying to do that, it’s only displaying the game once. The effect of the glasses is supposed to be like having a TV a few feet in front of you.
