    This is very cool that is possible. However, is such an involved process that I am sure I won't be doing... And I am not planning on getting a soldering station for this.

    For a second there I thought this also included upgrading to OLED.

    there's one supposedly in production but its 16:9 and iirc the display area is smaller. I don't think anyone has received them yet.

    I have one coming, I don't think the area is that much smaller. The screen resolution being non native 720 bugs most people.

    I'm excited because I just bought a broken-screen steam deck, so even with the high-ish cost ($130 ish for the etched version), I'll still come out at the end with a premium deck experience for less than base model deck 🤷‍♂️

    Basically nobody will actually make functional use of 32GB RAM on any machine.

    Actually I disagree. Using a Steam Deck docked in desktop mode I was able to run out of memory by playing Minecraft while having one browser tab open (YouTube) and Discord.

    I know it doesn't sound like a lot, but you have to keep in mind that the SteamDeck's 16GB of LPDDR5 is both VRAM and system memory and the Steam Deck dynamically allocates it based on need.

    And that's before we even consider doing something wacky like using the Steam Deck for Dev work or 3D modeling or other more "normal computer" uses.
