    Is USB4 able to use an external GPU?

    Yes but it would be BS to use one with a power-contrained CPU like the Deck’s.

      You could bump up the resolution and graphical settings at least, even if you’re constrained in framerate and in CPU limited games. Although I believe the eGPU support on Linux isn’t great at this point either.
