But why?

For games that the deck struggles to run?

AFAIK the Steam Deck doesn’t have NVIDIA hardware in it, so I don’t see how it would help.

Edit: GeForce NOW is a cloud game streaming service and doesn’t require any NVIDIA hardware.

@DarkDarkHouse @Robin Geforce now is for streaming games running in the "cloud", not for configuring a local GPU.

You might be thinking of GeForce Experience.
