The Steam Deck packs a punch with 16GB of shared DDR5 RAM, dude! But remember, it's shared memory, so not all of it is dedicated to VRAM like in a traditional PC or gaming console. It dynamically allocates memory between the system and the GPU based on what you're doing.

Just 16GB of shared memory. Not your typical VRAM, but it gets the job done for what the Steam Deck is designed for.

People often get confused here. The Steam Deck doesn't have 'VRAM' in the traditional sense. It's got 16GB of total system RAM, and it shares that between the CPU and GPU. So more like an integrated graphics setup than a separate graphics card.
