My apartment is tiny which means have my desk in a very unfortunate spot, right under my ac/heat unit. I use my steamdeck as a desktop for the time being and now that it’s getting colder, my heat is in a lot of the time. I’ve noticed that when i have no programs running my memory usage sits around 50% which makes it hard to do much. Is this my deck crying for help? System monitor doesn’t show any programs hogging memory.

I don’t think so. Heat doesn’t affect memory in this way you might have a lot of background stuff going.
Heat would not make memory use go up. Something you’ve installed is gobbling it up or there’s a memory leak somewhere. Is it sluggish all the time? Does it work correctly in Gaming Mode?
