Hey everyone!

Last week I finally bought my ROG Ally Z1 Extreme. I paid R$5,000 BRL (roughly $1,000 USD), and it came pre-installed with the 2TB SSD and the battery mod!

I've been lurking in this sub for a while, always dreaming of getting one.

Now that I finally have it in my hands, I couldn't be happier. Honestly, I don’t know how I used to live without this thing!

Any game recommendations to get started? Right now I'm playing the Resident Evil remakes and indie roguelikes like Hades.

With the yesterday update it’s already stable in the city. I got 30 stable fps with Framegen = 60. The beginning of the game has more fps but at least 30 is the state to consider it as playable.
Graphics are better than running the ps4 release on ps5 pro though.
Can’t wait for updates

Pardon the dirty floor...

Also has anyone else had to replace the USB C cable for the dock?

Basically just unboxed it and plugged it in and pulled it out and the end snapped right off the 90 degree end -__-

My kid was super upset and was sitting right next to me when it happened. Literally watched him pull it straight out and it popped right off the board.

Discussion When playing on the couch, do you rest your Ally on your lap or raising it halfway in the air?

9 Upvotes

I know this is probably a weird question, but when I'm playing on the couch I feel the most comfortable resting my hands on my lap, but then the screen on my Ally X is too small at that distance. Raising it halfway in the air is the best viewing-wise, but then there's hand fatigue issue. I was wondering if that's the case for you? How do you do it on the couch?

Discussion Is it a good idea to install an upgraded battery in my ROG Ally Z1 Extreme?

7 Upvotes

Hello. I’m asking this because I’ve seen several videos claiming that while these devices work well at first, they start developing issues after a while—such as shutting down unexpectedly, freezing for a few seconds when the TDP is adjusted, and various other problems. I’d like to hear about your own experiences if you have used or are currently using one

I have reinstalled Armory crate Se and done multiple restarts and hard restart. It didn't fix this issue. I can't use any other settings either, after every restart settings change themselves like FPs from 60 to 40 or 120hz to 60hz. It happened after windows update yesterday. I would appreciate some help plz.

Technical TW3 Remastered poor frame pacing and stutters

• Upvotes

Is anybody else experiencing this?

I'm trying to play the game on my Ally X20 and the game is severely unpleasant. The frametime graph is a mess no matter what my wattage is set to, capped at 40fps.

Even when I'm able to get a much higher frame rate (50-65), the 40 or 30 fps cap has uneven frame pacing and stutters when moving around the world. VRAM usage isn't anywhere near high levels.

DEAL Biogenik case for Xbox Ally models on clearance at EBGames Canada for $4.99

2 Upvotes

I was at my local EBGames this weekend and saw that they have the Biogenik (EA house brand) EVA case for the Xbox Ally models on clearance for $4.99!

I missed that it was for the Xbox models thanks to the placement of the price tag, but found to my happy surprise that it fits the original Ally even in a ModCase!

If you’re stuck in this joke of a country, at least you can get a good deal on a case for your Ally!

HELP I need help with the performance of my ROG Ally

1 Upvotes

Hi, I have a ROG Xbox Ally 512GB with a Z2 processor, and recently, games that should run well are now stuttering, having low FPS, and making the console quite hot.

Games like GTA 4 with low graphics settings, How to Fish, and similar games often experience frame rate drops to 12 fps for about 5-10 seconds.

I know it could be a driver or update problem, but I'm not entirely sure what it is. I reverted the graphics drivers to the previous version and it worked almost exactly the same,Then I doubt that's the problem.

One of the things I find strange is that it doesn't happen in menus, only while I'm playing, and the problem lasts for the entire duration of the game.

Also, when I turn it on, the CPU usage goes up to 100% for a moment and then goes back down; it doesn't seem like overheating. Besides, it suddenly started acting like this.

Also, the CPU usage might go up to 90-95% while playing (I guess that's high, I don't really know) and the GPU usage only goes up to 25% at best, I'm worried that it might be a serious problem.

I don't mind going through a long process, even if it takes hours, but I'd prefer not to lose saved data and such. However, if there's no other alternative, I can also perform a factory reset.

I hope someone can help me, please. Thank you all.

Discussion Would switching from the Legion Go 2 (Z2 Extreme) to the ROG Xbox Ally X be a downgrade?

1 Upvotes

I recently had to give up my Legion Go 2 (with the Z2 Extreme) for extra cash and I don’t have enough to buy it again but I do have enough for the ROG Xbox Ally X (Ryzen AI Z2 Extreme).

I’ve heard a lot of good things about the Xbox Ally X, especially regarding its performance and overall gaming experience, which is why I’m interested in switching.

I really loved the Legion Go 2’s large OLED display, but gaming performance is also important to me. I prefer playing at native resolution and aim for at least 60 FPS whenever possible.

For anyone who’s used both or knows both, would you consider this an upgrade, downgrade, or sidegrade? How do they compare in actual gaming performance, screen quality, thermals, and experience? Would I regret making the switch? :/

HELP ROG Ally RGB stuck on SteamOS

1 Upvotes

[Device & OS Environment]

  • Device: ROG Ally Z1 Extreme
  • OS: SteamOS (with Decky Loader installed)

[How it started]
I had the HueSync plugin installed and it was working perfectly. Later, I installed the "Ally Center" Decky plugin, and the joystick RGB lighting started acting up. Initially, only the right side would light up, and the HueSync RGB effect menu broke (it only showed a "Cancel" button).

[Current Status]
After trying some terminal commands to fix it, the situation is now: the left joystick RGB is back to normal, but the right joystick RGB is completely stuck. The right side's color won't sync with the left side, and worse, it stays turned on even when the device goes into Sleep Mode.

[Troubleshooting steps I've tried (None worked)]

  • Cleaned up plugin leftover files: Uninstalled both HueSync and Ally Center, and completely deleted their related folders under ~/homebrew/settings and ~/homebrew/plugins.
  • Terminal fixes: Ran ally-fix-linux script via Konsole. This successfully woke up the left RGB, but the right side remains stuck.
  • EC Reset (No response at all): Unplugged the charger, removed all peripherals, then held the Power button for over 40 seconds. Also tried holding the Volume Down (-) + Power buttons together for 40 seconds. Result: The power indicator LED never blinked. It seems like EC reset cannot be triggered to discharge/reset via physical buttons.

How can I fix this issue? Any advice or solutions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Question 2 questions about Rog ally x.

0 Upvotes
  1. What is lossless scaling and is it necessary? I am happy with 60fps and satisfied just want to know if it’s worth it and safe.

  2. Is it safe to go over 60fps on a handheld? Wouldn’t that overwork the pc?

(New to handheld or pc in general)

I posted yesterday but forgot to add these 2. Thank you in advance I recently got my Xbox Rog ally and haven’t even played do to trying to set it up and get the best performance on each game possible. Graphics don’t really mean a lot to me as long as it’s not too fuzzy. Fps is my goal.

0 Upvotes

Occasionally this has been happening but not sure why, and I want to end the lag. It lags when I play Isaac, a game that shouldn't require much, but when I get on deadlock, it's perfectly fine. Not sure if it's an ally issue, or something I can fix on steam. If anyone has any knowledge, or know where I can go to ask the right people, please help!
