SteamOS 3.7.19

The next SteamOS update has been released, which fixes an annoying problem that kept creeping up as I played games. The performance overlay will now show the correct power draw for CPU again, Forza Horizon 4 and 5 will now display correctly, and the frame limiter will interact well with VRR after an extended period of use.

You can download the update by going to your System Settings on the Steam Deck and checking for an update.

SteamOS 3.7.19 Update Changelog:

General

  • Fixed a regression with Game Recording where the video feed would stop partway through the clip.
  • Fixed the performance overlay sometimes showing zero for CPU power draw
  • Fixed audio not always switching to/from 3.5mm headphones correctly when inserted or removed
  • Fixed a regression where certain in-game overlay UI elements could cause a frame time drop upon appearing
  • Fixed the frame limiter interacting badly with VRR after an extended period
  • Fixed an issue where Forza Horizon 4 and Forza Horizon 5 would only display a blank window
