Hey folks, I wanna gift a steam deck to myself. The main games I’ll (infrequently) play on there are CS:Go and age of empires 2 HD, both of which I own and never get a chance to play on a regular PC.

I suppose I want the OLED one. Is it ok to go for the 64 GB version or should I go for the higher storage tier? It has expandable storage yeah? Or is that not reliable or fast enough?

Also, what’s going on with the pricing? It’s just obviously better to buy direct. Why are people trying to sell it on Amazon? I get people trying to sell on eBay and Craigslist but Amazon? What’s the deal there?

    Don’t go for the 64gb because straight away you’ll have to buy a new storage drive and take it apart. Doing so will barely save any money compared to buying a higher storage device.

      Not with the games they listed. 64GB could be good enough. I have a 64GB model and mainly play older or indie games which it handles great without additional storage.
