To cap FPS on your Steam Deck, dive into the per-game settings by pressing the '...' button next to the game in your library, navigate to 'Properties,' then 'PERFORMANCE,' and there you'll have the option to set a max FPS limit. Easy peasy, and keeps your games running smooth without draining the battery too fast.
I capped my FPS at 30 for several games to save battery life, and the difference is night and day. Plus, my Steam Deck doesn't get as hot. The setting is pretty easy to find in the game properties menu, just like tweaking any other performance setting.
