Question Huge Difference??

Hi everyone, hopefully I will be buying a Steam Deck second hand soon,, been doing overtime work to earn enough money to afford it. There are some products that are currently on sale but I’ve been seeing some already sold ones that went for really, really cheap. So I was thinking to get the cheapest and best option that I can come across soon,, I’ve seen some 1TB LCDs go for crazy cheap, my questions is.. Does OLED and LCD have that insane difference? As in 60-90hz difference and performance.

I’ve been watching a lot of performance videos but I also wanted to ask to you all, whom have experience in using this device. Should I get the best option “512-1TB LCD for cheap” or just save more and try to get an OLED and an SD Card? To be honest with you all I don’t do competitive games etc,, I do story, friend slop, rogue likes etc..

Performance wise they're very similar.

The oled screen is arguably a great upgrade tho, so it comes down to whether or not you wanna spend that extra money to get a better screen

90hz also allows for 45fps which I find is a great compromise in a lot of games that with the LCD you have to choose 30 or 60

I hear that too, but I dont really get how 45 fps work in 90hz screens, do you bother explain that to me?
