Steam Deck vs PS4 performance

[gadrisenarega]

Do AAA games on the Steam Deck run better than on the PS4? Should I expect better graphics and FPS? 🤔
EDIT: And I mean each console running the games at their respective native resolutions, of course. I know the PS4 res is higher than the Deck's, but that's not my question...

Yeah as far as frame rate goes with the 30 fps games that PS4 has the Steam Deck can handle those games. Like for example the Steam Deck can handle Cyberpunk 2077 while the base PS4 is brought to its knees and struggles with it very badly.

Yes the deck is a better performer over the standard PS4.

I am glad someone else tried to speak truth.

I answered quickly because I did not think I would need to elaborate.

Yeah same.

go look it up
both origins will make you level up

Steam Deck is about 1.6 TFLOPS RDNA2 GPU cores
PS4 is about 1.84 TFLOPS GCN2 GPU cores
PS4 Pro is about 4.19 TFLOPS GCN4 GPU cores

So just considering floating point performance of the GPU cores the Steam Deck is about on par with the PS4, however, RDNA2 is a significantly more performant architecture than GCN2. Overall the Steam Deck is somewhere in between the PS4 and PS4 Pro, however, it supports more modern GPU features that will improve fidelity compared to the GCN architecture in PS4/Pro.

Do some comparisons and find out. You'd probably need to include some fair real-world comparisons, so things like which machine runs best whilst waiting for a train, Or which machine runs best whilst having lunch at work etc.

Steam deck better.

Some people call the Deck the spiritual successor to the PlayStation Vita

You guys can't compare the deck to a PS4 when the PlayStation has a 0.1 tflops cpu compared to the deck 0.5 tflops cpu, the deck has a more powerful cpu, a gpu that can almost reach the same theoretical performance, better gpu bandwidth and higher vram capacity of 16gb which would be able to store more high quality textures and can store more shaders for shader caching.

The only thing that matters is FPS. Try comparing that.

you mean the deck has problem sustaining a good performance against their ps4 title counterpart ?? you do know that the rdna2 architecture can transfer data faster between the cpu and gpu and share computational workload with the help of the infinity cache, people don't understand that they need to take in consideration the whole apu theoretical performance, the steam deck CPU = 448 GFlops and GPU = 1638,4 GFlops while the ps4 is CPU = 102,4 GFlops and GPU = 1 843,2 GFlops. SD APU = 2086 GFlops and PS4 APU = 1945 GFlops.

Yes, and all of these advancements can be summarized by an FPS number that can be compared between the PS4 and the Steam Deck.

I will happily take efficiency over performance, any day of the week.
For instance =

The Steam deck uses 4-15W
A PS5 uses 100W

Thats ten times the amount of electricity to play a game..
Not to mention one is mobile....

Performance per watt, nothing comes close to the deck.

PC's, and even consoles, are on the way out.
Lower and lower sales every year.

Also, just to compound the issue, in less than a year, a mobile phone will have more power than the current consoles..

But like I said, efficiency, not performance, is where it is at.

Its like the story of the turtle, and the hare.
Bet on the turtle..

This is a made-up statement.
