The CPU of the Steamdeck is respectable. It's vastly better than the anaemic CPU of the PS4.
DF did a video a bit ago basically saying can we get it to something comparable to the Xbox Series S?
@EvilMonkeySlayer Well it has approx. half the power of the Series S CPU, game is played with lower settings and resolution (which helps with CPU, not just the GPU) and aims for lower FPS. So "comparable" is a relative term here. Maybe its close to the CPU power of a One X?
Both the One X and PS4 CPU's are of an older anaemic Jaguar generation.
@EvilMonkeySlayer I know. I am not talking about the architecture type, but how fast it can work. Hence why I wrote >> Well it has approx. half the power << and >> comparable is a relative term here <<
The One X CPU is basically a slightly faster PS4 CPU. The Steamdeck is of the same generation architecture as the Series CPU. It has a lower core count but should still easily outperform something like the One X CPU.
