Is Valve now working on the Steam Deck 2? Rumors suggest leaked AMD chip could be the engine of the next-gen handheld
A leaked AMD 'Gainsborough' APU benchmark suggests Valve may be developing a successor to the Steam Deck, potentially named Steam Deck 2. The codename 'Gainsborough' aligns with Valve's previous use of Final Fantasy VII-inspired codenames for Steam Deck hardware. While early benchmarks show a slight performance increase over the current Steam Deck, there are doubts about the timing and the significance of the generational upgrade.
