Resolution for output to monitor?

Hey all!

My main gaming desktop is down for maintenance, which gets me thinking more about my steam deck.

Does anyone have any experience out putting to a monitor? What resolution do you use?

The SD’s strength is still limited, so what kind of resolution/refresh rate can it reasonably output?

Thanks in advance for your insights!

I remember trying to run Spider-Man on my 1080p monitor and wondering why it looked like complete shit even at 30fps. You’re right that the strength is limited, and lots of AAA games will need the settings lowered quite a bit to run smoothly.
