Cyberpunk runs astonishingly well on my desktop at the same resolution with an AMD 5700XT, maybe its the Nvidia drivers causing issues.

Linux users stopping reading a post asking for help and reaching for the downvote button as soon as they see the word Nvidia. Nice to see some things don't change.

Maybe people thought you were comparing steam deck to your laptop (which is of course a unfair comparison) cause that is how I read it at first.

from what i know, you can either install official nvidia drivers or ones the community wrote.

sounds like they're using community drivers. because they typically don't perform very well.
