I often stream from my PC to my Steam Deck using remote play, but when I turn off my monitor, Windows resets to a default resolution of 1920x1080 at 60Hz. I want to switch to 1440p at 90Hz for better compatibility with my deck. Have you tried adjusting this setting through registry changes under "Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\GraphicsDrivers\Configuration"? It seems the previous attempts didn’t work, and I’m using Windows 10 with an AMD GPU. Thanks!

It might not be the best idea (since you'd need to handle an invisible screen when using the PC), but there are display dummy plugs that can help guarantee a working display for Steamlink.

I observed those as well; the link I found is essentially a software version of what you described. I reached the same point about dealing with an invisible display being problematic, and I’ll keep it as a backup option. It’s surprising this isn’t adjustable—most likely the default resolution is saved somewhere, but I’m not sure.
