Need some wisdom from y’all about deciding to upgrade or not. Not sure if it is worth or not. Waiting 2-3 years for a SD2 is pretty far away, right? This is my only gaming rig.

How much is the money worth to you? If you absolutely love the Steam Deck and have the disposable income, I'd say go for it. I bought the OLED Limited Edition though I already had two LCD Decks (512GB and 64GB upgraded to 512GB) because I broke my first one but later fixed it. I love what Valve is doing with the Deck and with Linux and I had the disposable income to buy it. I'm happy. However, I would say it isn't the wisest financial decision I could've made and if money is tight the LCD Deck is still a perfectly fine option. The performance is basically the same.
