Analysis — FlatOut on the Steam Machine
As a racing game, this leans on the CPU in dense scenes — the Machine's 6-core Zen 4 is the part to watch, much like Baldur's Gate 3's Lower City. Resolution costs little here; simulation/draw-distance settings cost the most.
8 GB of VRAM is comfortable for this title at 1080p; you're unlikely to hit the texture-streaming wall unless you push 1440p with max textures.
It already clears 60 at high. Spend the headroom on a higher refresh target or 1440p + FSR Quality rather than maxing settings that barely move image quality.
Big screen → the Steam Machine (runs great). Handheld → Steam Deck Verified — great on the go, or streamed to the Frame on a virtual screen.
