My favorite puzzle game of all time, but it’s not really Tetris.

Weird, the K4’s latest bios supports Vermeer, but perhaps not the X3D CPUs? But if so, even a 5600 would be an acceptable and pretty cheap upgrade over a 2600.

Which mobo do you have? Most of them got bios updates to support Ryzen 5000, even old B350s and some A320s.

AFAIK they’re large chips though, and larger generally is more performance but also much more expensive to manufacture.

Wouldn’t adding a bunch of extra features to an ARM CPU make it become less power efficient and more like x86?

I’ve heard that ARM isn’t inherently more power efficient in some special way over x86, x86 has just been around so long and has had so many extra instructions added to it over the years, but that’s what allows it to do so much / be so performant. If you took an ARM CPU and did the same you’d have roughly the same performance/watt.

Steam Deck is also only an 800p screen, so using DLSS/FSR will render the game even lower than that. Basically the upscaling just works better at higher resolutions since it has more data to use. And like you said, definitely better for farther viewing distances too.
