Check the connection before replacing the hardware

These two checks turn published port limits into a practical first pass. They cannot verify your cable, display firmware, device charging protocol, or every unlisted mode.

Display path

Steam Deck dock display check

Compare the requested output with Valve’s Docking Station or UGREEN model 25869. A match means the mode fits the published connection limits; it does not promise game performance.

Published match

Within the published single-display limits

Verify that the screen input and cable support the mode, then select it in SteamOS. This checks the connection specification, not the frame rate a game will achieve.

Power path

Anker 100W port-allocation check

See what the Anker 317 A2672 or Prime A2688 publishes for the selected ports. The main device is the first listed port; connect it there before comparing its target.

Published allocation

100W total

USB-C1: 65W · USB-C2: 35W

65W covers your 65W target on paper. The device, cable and required USB PD or charging protocol must also match.
