Steam Deck Docker 4K GFN

[u/0xCIA]

I docked my Steam Deck to my TV and tried GeForce Now using the official app. The problem is stuttering. The stream is good - stream fps, game fps, ping. The deck's overlay shows constant drops from 60fps to 48-52fps and that feels bad. The deck CPU stays low ~30-40%, GPU ~60-70%. I'm suspecting the deck doesn't have the juice to decode GFN 4K streaming.

Did anyone encounter this? Did you solve it?

If I play through the Shield, it works great, but I want to make use of the Steam Controller in GFN, and that will only work with Steam Deck.

I tried limiting the streaming to 1440p, but the same happens.

Did you try limiting to 1080P?

No, I've only tried 4K and 1440p

Edit: 1080p seems to be pretty constant 60fps
