When it first launched in 2022, the best one to get was the 256 GB model, as you could replace the NVMe drive inside it with a much larger and faster gaming SSD. But with a price of $529, it wasn’t especially cheap and it lacked the extra fancy etched glass screen of the 512 GB model.

With the launch of the refreshedOLED Steam Deck, that price was dropped and right now, Valve is selling its last stocks of 64 GB and 512 GB models with a 15% reduction until July 11. And it’s the latter that gets our vote, partly because it has the best display of all the original Steam Decks, but mostly because it’s actually cheaper than the 256 GB model.

Yes, that’s right—you can get a 512 GB Steam Deck for just under $382. That’s an absurdly low price and it’s well worth every single cent.

But what games to get with it? How aboutHades, one of the best roguelike action RPGs ever made?Baldur’s Gate 3is another RPG that’s a must-have for Deck owners (or anyone, for that matter).Vampire Survivorswould get my vote too. Your biggest problem isn’t one of choice, as the Steam Deck will run more games than you could possibly want.

It’s just that you’ll need bags of storage space to store them all. There again, 512 GB is a pretty decent amount to get started with. Perhaps the biggest problem is the fact that eventually, Valve’s stocks of the original Steam Deck will run dry, and then you’ll rue the day you passed on a deal like this one.

Three of Asus ROG’s fourth generation Slash bags float in a blue-magenta gradient void. The backpack, sling bag, and sleeve all feature a black all-over colourway with an indent design on the bottom left corner of each bag that looks a bit like tire tracks.
