Maximizing Performance: Overclocking Techniques for Starfield on the Steam Deck
Discover the best overclocks for Starfield on the Steam Deck to achieve improved performance and smoother gameplay.
00:00:00 Discover the best overclocks for Starfield on the Steam Deck. Set at 720p, low settings, and with the Mark 7 back plate, we achieve cool temperatures and improved performance.
š§ The video explores the best overclocks for Starfield on the steam deck.
šŗ The screen resolution and graphics settings are set to low for all testing.
š The Mark 7 back plate helps keep the steam deck cool and improves performance.
00:01:21 Improving performance on the Steam Deck by overclocking with a custom backplate and increasing the TDP to 20 watts results in smoother gameplay and better frame stability.
š§ The Mark 7 backplate keeps the Steam Deck cooler and is highly recommended.
āļø Increasing the TDP to 20 improves gameplay smoothness and frame stability.
š”ļø Overclocking the TDP leads to slightly higher temperatures, but overall enhances the gaming experience.
00:02:42 Improving performance on the Steam Deck by increasing the GPU power while maintaining the TDP. Significant reduction in frame drops and smoother gameplay. Boosting GPU to 1900 and achieving 10% increase in frame rate.
š Increasing the GPU performance while keeping the CPU stock resulted in a significant improvement with fewer frame drops and smoother gameplay.
š Increasing the TDP to 22 improved the performance slightly, but it also caused higher temperatures.
00:04:04 Achieving optimal performance on the Steam Deck by overclocking the GPU and boosting the CPU to 3.9 GHz results in smoother gameplay and increased frame rates. However, the system operates at high temperatures.
š Boosting the GPU to just under 2000 megahertz resulted in stable frame rate at 25.
āļø Increasing the CPU speed to 3.9 gigahertz improved performance with smoother and cleaner visuals and a frame rate increase of 15%.
š”ļø However, the system temperature rose significantly to 65 and 72 degrees Celsius.
00:05:26 Testing the performance of Starfield on the Steam Deck by overclocking to 26 Watts. Noticeable improvements in gameplay and frame rates, but higher temperatures and battery drainage above 24 Watts TDP.
š Increasing the TDP of the Steam Deck to 26 Watts improves performance, but requires an external cooler to prevent overheating.
š”ļø At 26 Watt TDP, temperatures rise to the mid to high 70s, with the GPU reaching almost 70 degrees.
š Pushing the Steam Deck beyond 24 Watt TDP results in increased battery drain, making it impractical.
00:06:48 Optimal overclock settings for Starfield on the Steam Deck: 3.7GHz CPU and 2200MHz GPU. External cooling required for 21W TDP.
š The best overclocks for the Steam Deck while playing Starfield are a 21 watt TDP CPU at 3.7 GHz and a GPU at 2200 MHz.
āļø These overclock settings provide similar performance to a 26 watt TDP, but with lower temperatures.
š”ļø To achieve optimal performance, it's important to use an external cooler with the Steam Deck.
00:08:10 Learn how to maximize performance on the Steam Deck with overclocking techniques, including using an external cooler and adjusting CPU and GPU settings.
āļø To achieve an extra 15% performance on the Steam Deck, you need an external cooler and to overclock your CPU to 3.7 GHz and GPU to at least 21 MHz.
