Some Performance Presets for Steam Deck. (self.drg)

DRG on Steam Deck OLED performs well, but I want to see how low I can push the TDP while maintaining playability. And I want to share it so others don't have to go thru the hassle.

Assuming battery usage from 90% to 10%，so only 80%(40Wh) is used in playtime estimation.

All presets are tuned with Haz 5 difficulty. Different cave generation/ swarm sizes will cause dips and power hungry moments from time to time.

Modded difficulty are not tested.

(Cyro utility 2.0 used)

In game Settings:

Texture Quality:High , the rest all low.

Using DX12.

fov 103⁰.

Mods used:

-Remove decals

-No ragdolls

-Cyro cannon partical fix

-No flares.

Presets:

7w / 45fps (to be sync with 90Hz) / FSR 2 Ultra Quality / Gpu Auto/ ~4.5 HR / TotalDeckPow=11w

(This one is surprisingly stable, it even have headroom up to 50fps)

9w / 60fps / FSR 1 performance / Gpu Auto / ~3.5 HR / TotalDeckPow=14w

(Really like this one, used most when not desperate for battery.)

11w / 60fps / FSR 1 Ultra Quality / Gpu Auto / 2.5~3 HR / TotalDeckPow=16~17w

(Nice upgrade over the last one, couch gaming recommended!)

2024/4/29 Update, Aiming for nicer stability and no longer pins GPU (Valve fixed the apu's power allocation)

All low settings looks pretty rough, but I'm also usually not super concerned about battery life. I personally use:

DX12
103FOV
FSR 1.0 highest quality (2.0 looks horrible in DRG for some reason, and lower qualities didn't help a ton)
Anti-aliasing: TAA (looks best with FSR)
Texture Quality: Ultra (with CryoUtilities, zero performance hit compared to low, but idk about stock)
Anti-Aliasing Quality: Ultra (zero performance hit compared to low)
View Distance: Ultra (zero performance hit compared to low)
Shadow Quality: High (even though low will get you a 10% fps boost, I couldn't stand the zero shadows, and high only has a ~2% hit compared to medium)
Effects: High (lowest setting that keeps screen space refections, but this is a 10% fps hit compared to medium and low. Low and medium were identical FPS)
Post-Processing: Medium (or high if you use the Better Post Processing Reloaded mod, or if you're okay with chromatic abberation). Low will remove ambient occlusion, but has a 10% FPS boost
11W TDP
V-sync'd 40-45hz (still tuning that in)

However, I use CryoUtilities and have a pretty hefty ~40mV undervolt (which can sometimes improve performance). Also note that I have the original LCD model, and apparently the LCD and OLED handle TDP settings pretty differently. So YMMV with these settings.
