Oh your saying it's better because Steam os for desktop isn't ready yet

Yah. People using steamos proper are actually installing the recovery image for the steam deck. It works on other stuff a lot of the time, but it's not really being thoroughly tested or developed for a variety of computers. Just steam deck and now steam machine.

Bazzite is built off a project that is made for general use. That project is using a similar philosophy as steamos as far as being an immutable paradigm. So it's a good place to start and then layer on the parts of steamos that make the important differences with the ux. So the "gaming mode" that stabilizes/consolizes things on steamos is able to be run on this other base system that is meant to handle a variety of hardware.

So at this juncture at least, bazzite is better because you aren't skirting around it's intended use like installing the steamos recovery image. You will still get the boot to console mode (steam+gamescope) if you want, with the overlay stability and the control over frametimes and the little performance tweaker from the overlay and all that.

DLSS4 and FSR4 looks so great these days that I almost always put them at Balanced even if I can handle Quality with ease. You still get the benefits of reduced power draw. Less power, less heat, less fans.

Yeah, I'm a big fan of DLSS.

I also configured an undervolt/OC with my card so in theory I'm getting better performance with less power consumption although I'm currently using a 1440 screen and I'm limiting the framerate to 120 so I'm not getting all the power from the card. A 4k monitor is on the way (hopefully, Amazon hasn't set a delivery date) so my card will probably struggle for those resolutions.
