MODERATORS
Pay attention to the cables you use too.
An old hdmi 1.0 isn't going to get you 4k@240Hz.
I don't know what specs the steam deck/your display are actually capable of, so no specific recommendations.
I like cables from 'Cables Matter' on Amazon. Nothing I've gotten from them has felt cheap or failed to live up to whatever its specs are.
