@JoTheTechie For sure! In a desktop lower temperatures would likely increase performance due to the nature of the processors and their default tuning, but an APU designed to run at such specific thresholds, on a battery you're likely just reducing the power draw. It's very possible you raised the MHZ ceiling for thermal throttling but it's not as if the console will retune it's clock and somehow know there's more thermal mass on it like GPUs that clock based on temperature magically do in a desktop. If anyone disagrees with that comment on this comment.
Love this format! You got a steam deck, found specific issues in your use case, sought out solutions to those problems on a budget, and here we are! Great video, might consider some of these options for my OLED version.
I wonder how much better cooling you’d get if you cut out the plastic part of the backplate that covers the metal plate so you could attach your heat sinks directly to the metal. Surprised you got that much cooling improvement through the plastic. Definitely get the OLED, so much nicer and more battery.
@@SmartFool24 Thanks for watching all the way to the end. That metal under the backplate is super thin for mounting. Would have to get into 3d printing to do sumn like that.
Great video! Good idea on the cooling as well, I'll be taking some of these ideas. I have had the Dbrand Killswitch (with travel cover) since release. I really recommend it. It's about $75 so may not be worth it to you now but it includes the functionality of a lot of things on this list. It has a kickstand and most importantly the travel cover just snaps on and covers the entire front of the deck so you can just throw it in your bag and not worry about it
I know that it would be far more permanent, but i would cut a hole for the heatsinks on the back in order to make sure they're properly disipating the heat, plastic is relatively insulating and it would obstruct the cooling considerably. I would also prefer copper heatsinks but that's a minor thing.
@@Ferrari255GTO No. the JSAUX backplate has a metal section with a thermal pad that goes against the metal components cover inside the Steam deck. So it’s metal to metal with a thermal pad sandwich
I have the same exact Jsaux case and loving it too, also have the same color. Let me give you something that might help and won’t break the bank…get yourself a magnetic cell phone cooler. These have a magnet and will attach directly to the back of the Jsaux case’s metal heatsink that touches the inner components. I got mine off Temu for under $10. There are tons to choose from off Amazon and similar storefronts. They are very quiet and the cooling gets so cool that it feels like touching the inside of a refrigerator. It’s rare to find them with a built in battery so you’ll need to usually either have it powered from the Deck’s USB port or plugged into something else, like getting a dual USB type C cable that will power both Deck and cooler or have the cooler power off an external battery. Your temps can get even better with this and still within your smaller budget.
I did something similar with my OLED one using the GREEN backplate. Replaced the cooling paste with stuff from Noctua (had it at home... so 0€/$ otherwise ~ 14€/$) and added a few thermal pads from Thermal Grizzly. (~10€/$) Instead of those 4 black aluminum coolers you used I got a single one made of copper that's 40x40x2mm (thinner than yours and fits neatly on the metal plate) for ~13€/$ I then went into the BIOS and reduced voltage by -30mV overall (there are guides on how to do this on YT...) and reduced max frames per second to 45 (to keep the 90hz screen refresh)
Stumbled onto your channel while looking for content on my new steam deck oled. Thank you so much for the caring and relatable content, I just subbed! 😊
Really enjoyed the video. I chuckled when I saw how easily you're palming this thing. Only time I've seen a reviewer make the Steam Deck look pocketable.
I 100% recommend the tomtoc hard shell case as a compact and tough alternative to the OG case It’s $30 full price which isn’t bad imo, it’s hard shell so it’s as tough as it gets, and it’s basically the size of the deck so it’s about as compact as you can get.
Great video. I personally bought the JSAUX mod case I don't really use the mod features, but I love the grip case along with the cover. it's really helpful.

@@JoTheTechie I'm not sure why I just saw this, but thanks! It was just a random thing I came up with to avoid using my real name back when Google+ integrating with TH-cam was a thing. I still have yet to find a heatsink with a low enough profile to fit my case though...
The reason that the backplates are out of stock is because thats the v1. The v2 has a larger fan vent but I've never noticed any improvements. Your addition of the heatsinks really made a difference, wow
I think the vent over the fan intake on the V2 backplate is a mistake. Valve made the fan covered so that it would pull air through the lower vent across the components to cool them. You may see lower CPU/GPU temps on the V2, but I think the other motherboard components and SSD will run hotter. That's why I didn't chose it. I could be totally wrong, but I'm happy with the results. Thanks for watching.
This is not really related, but I am kind of surprised no one has made a replacement back panel (or case) with some form of extra built in storage for massive game libraries. It doesn’t seem like it would be too hard to engineer with services like pcbway. Just have the board hooked up to the USB port with a hub for extra micro SD cards or an SSD then have a new USB input that juts out of the back slightly for power.
Nice video, I might actually consider the heatsink mod. Also, deck mate is on sale for prime days if it’s available in your area. You can also buy individual pieces like the universal mount and stand from their website for cheaper, although I don’t know if the shipping is free. Maybe you could 3d print what you need at a public library?

Did you just replace the plate and add the pads? Thanks!
@@benmcnamara31 I never touched the stock pads. Only changed the thermal paste on the CPU. The backplate comes with a big thermal pad that rests on the metal component cover that’s in the Steam Deck.
gr8 vid end super good explanation🔥🔥🔥 btw u kinda look like j.cole plus drake hybrid (I am not trying to hate just noticed and can not get it out of my head)
@JoTheTechie it's not the same because the aluminum plate isn't exposed on the V2 and the openning is too big where the fan pulls exclusively from there neglecting the chipset on the motherboard. Cryobyte had a video on all the Jsaux backplates that describes what I'm talking about
@JoTheTechie if I was able to send a picture of my set up I could its very similar to yours only I have a few 1/16 holes over the fan to add more airflow I still get air coming from the original vent and the triggers of the Deck are made the way they are so it acts like a vent too my fans rarely go pass 3000rpms and my Temps stay around in the 70°C
Put some RESPEK on his name! great set up fam, I've got an OLED deck and I'm considering doing the same (Cooling Mod) although I don't really play as many intensive games as most (Project Zomboid among others).
@@jt3000o I’ll look into it. Although I was never a fan of undercoating or overlocking. Anytime something goes wrong. Like a game crashing. I’d be stuck troubleshooting to see if it’s a bug or cause I messed around with the APU settings. I just want to pickup and play.
@@JoTheTechie It's limited I have never had a crash from changing the three settings that it gives you I've done this on six different steam decks but I did get a big temperature change which is why I did it went from 80c to 70c and below
Loved the video but I don't understand the mini touchpad and keyboard. The Deck has two touchpads onboard: mouse with the right pad and scrollwheel with the left pad. You can also use the touchpads to type with your thumbs. Takes a little getting used to but I bet once you get the hang of it, it's quicker and easier than those tiny physical buttons on the separate keyboard.
Lol. This is one of those cases of "it has those features so its supposed to work". Versus, actually using the item and finding out its a real pain. I was where you are now before I bought it. And after using it for myself. There is no getting used to that awful trackpad as a mouse and tiny touchscreen keyboard that you have to do a button combination to bring up. Those tiny physical buttons are ten times easier to type on.
@@JoTheTechie I rarely use the Deck's touchscreen, I'm talking about using both touchpads for the keyboard. Seriously, try it; it feels awkward at first, but I got quick with it after a bit. Button combo and dual touchpad typing is a lot faster than having to scrounge for a random other device. I have a similar small keyboard+touchpad device I used on the couch with my PC on TV. Even though the Deck's pads are smaller, they're way more accurate and the virtual trackball momentum (flick the right pad and the cursor goes flying, then touch it again "catch" it) makes it way easier to flick the cursor around the screen quickly compared to how most of those little touchpad devices work. Agree to disagree I guess.
Haha. When we we're filming it, that was actually the first take. And that look on my face was genuine surprise. Its like she couldn't wait to put hands on me 🤣🤣

Depends on your use case. The Ally cant compete with the Steam Deck in the time to game, pickup and play. But the Ally is more powerful and Windows, love it or hate it it's useful.

great video! the keyboard is the micro usb model can you relink to the usb c model please.
Not sure where you're seeing micro-usb. That's the exact one I bought from Amazon and it's USB-C.
Why the steam deck 265gb had price bigger than 64g and 512gb did they put technology better or something?
Not sure where you’re seeing 256GB prices higher than the 512. I’ve never seen that. Unless it’s a one off or sale somewhere.

Could of just bought the 1 tb oled which would of sorted out all your issues plus gained you nothing but benefits over your old deck 😂
@@Kennosuke88 Maybe. But this cost me less than half the price 🤣
Yes, but all of this is unfriendly to default carrying case
No it isn’t actually. Default case works fine

It's last of us 2 right ?
Yeah. Streaming using Chiaki
Just get a rog ally z1 extreme , so much better than the steam deck
Depends on your use case. The Ally cant compete with the Steam Deck in the time to game, pickup and play. But the Ally is more powerful and Windows, love it or hate it it's useful.
I appreciate you placing the bibel verse in the beginning so I know to avoid this channel. Much thanks.
