I'd rather use a second hand TLC or MLC drive than a new QLC. They are not good pieces of technology. I would recommend not using one as a boot drive or as a games drive.
@MichaelPearn The recent SteamOS beta (https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1675200/view/672870313012233967) added button layouts for previous Intel handheld units, so there is hope these will get loving as well. I sure hope so. Keen to upgrade from my OG Ally, to a Panther Lake unit.
@Darren1967 They got the file size down by removing many duplicate files. They had initially done this to help load times on HDD systems. It turned out it didn't do much to improve load times and just chewed up loads of extra space. (https://steamcommunity.com/games/553850/announcements/detail/491583942944621372)

@xPosed It doesn't help. I'm still CPU limited with a 5080 at 1440p, DLAA, Ultra settings, with a 9800x3d.
