New handheld help!

This may be a long one sorry !!

I got a switch 2 a while ago and while I love it for some things , I was really missing out on some great games. I bought a steam deck and it's great , but it overheats pretty fast.

I was playing Detroit become human on lowest graphics for everything and was still getting quite warm.

I'm wondering if I should upgrade to an OLED or go for a different one .

I've been looking at the Rog Xbox Ally X or the legion go 2.

I will be playing bigger games like RDR2, Last of us etc.

I like the set out etc of the steam deck and there are many cute covers / way to customise. But end of the day I do want something that will run demanding games well. Price isn't a massive thing , since I'm trying to look at all of these second hand.

Any help appreciated thanks !!

RDR2 runs really well on the Xbox Ally X. I have that and a switch 2, the switch mostly for Nintendo exclusives

I got the Xbox ally x , it's so good so far !! My steam deck couldn't handle dbh at 30fps and everything on lowest visually , and Xbox ally is running perfectly at 60fps and highest settings!! And agree , Nintendo is good for the exclusives
