Hey everyone,

I’m planning to play SCP: Secret Laboratory (among other titles) on Steam Deck OLED. From what I’ve gathered online, it runs at about 30-40 fps on the lowest settings. Since the game is really designed for a mouse and keyboard, I was considering using the Dock to connect to an external monitor for a better setup.

I have both a Full HD and a 4K monitor. Of course, I’d prefer playing on the 4K screen, but I’m skeptical that the performance would hold up. Full HD is more realistic, and I’m totally fine with that if it means better gameplay stability.

So, my question is: How does it affect performance, especially for games like SCP: Secret Laboratory? Would there be a significant fps drop when using a monitor, particularly with 4K versus 1080p?

Any advice or personal experiences would be much appreciated. Thanks!

    I’ve read about the Steam Deck’s upscaling settings, and it’s pretty promising, more than sufficient for my needs! I didn’t know you could use linear upscaling through the QAM menu without a performance hit, definitely worth trying. Thanks for the detailed info!
