Lower TDP also means less heat. I don't want a loud fan and hold a hot pan.

If it can reach 30 FPS locked and at least 80% of it's native resolution, then i prefer more batery life

As a guy who played his DS and PSP til' they're batteries needed replacing, I would KILL for longer battery lifes.

It defeats the purpose of being a handheld device when you need to find a wall charger every 2 hours and be stuck there until it charges. (but I'm all for the handheld pc craze)

It would depend. If I were next to a plug and the game is heavy, I could use more energy. Otherwise, I would play lighter games or limit the fps (as long as it doesn't go less than 20fps) Anyway, I mostly play lighter games, so probably it wouldn't use so much battery Edit: I also would rather limit the resolution, since the screen would be small

Having a handheld and not going for battery life is incomprehensible to me

Getting a cheap ($100-$200) handheld would be my dream.

The power I have is unreal, my 1 vote changes the entire 100%, only if I had this Power in real life

Depends on the game I guess. If it's action, driving, probably FPS. Anything else, probably battery life.

Society is collapsing, give me battery life because texas was a staging ground for the future. Let me play hades as the world burns and/or freezes, please.

Both. When docked, maybe to an egpu, go max but without stressing components. When handhelding, go for battery, but without sacrificing playability.

Depends. How much FPS are we talking about, and what is the difference between battery life? Also what is the resolution and quality settings? Why can't we have a choice between both options at will? I would definitely go for a 30 FPS handheld with good battery life, like my phone which I use to emulate the PSP and 3DS. Mostly because I almost exclusively play JRPGs, which don't need high frame rates. However, if we're going below 30 FPS in order to get low power draw, I would definitely go for the performance option.

I could play at 15w and limit resolution, because the screen would be smaller

For me performance is more important. There are lots of pd3.0 60watt powerbanks to extend the battery life externally

Depends on the game, for indie games, which are light, I can get many hours with a low wattage. New AAA games wont be that nice

Max tdp, increase fps at either 30 or 60 fps break points. The option for increased strings at 30fps is nice too, and frame limiters can still reduce tdp

Why not have the option to toggle betwen them? Like on a laptop

Option to switch between the two. On a flight for example, extended battery life. Near a power source, better performance.
