Do you use a Steam Deck at any point in your process? If so, how do you use it?

As my PC is mid-range at best, I was excited to hook up my Steam Deck to a capture card and play games on that while capturing on the PC to save system resources.

But, after a bit, I realized I was only playing games which could easily run alongside a capture utility due to the Deck’s power/quality limitations. Now the Steam Deck is gathering dust because typically anything I play I want to have capturing just in case, so mobility isn’t as big a boon as it would be if I were playing strictly for my own entertainment.
