Shiitttttt…
I mean. The ROG Ally has much better hardware…
The new one indeed have it… considering your paying the combined price of a desktop pc gaming + a steam deck to buy one.
The original Ally was pretty debatable hardware wise when compared to the deck. It was more powerful, but had worse battery life (especially in low power games), worse controls, poorly designed heat routing that burned up SD cards, etc. There was also stuff like how the higher resolution screen wasnt really necessary for the screen size, and the performance hit was very significant unless you capped at 720p.
Right on. I’m just excited that this form factor is going to “be a thing” for a while, because god damn, I love my deck.
But realistically, it could be a drop in replacement for my mobile computing solutions if it was just a bit beefier.
Make SteamOS available for desktops tol
Check out Bazzite until then.
It’s coming. In the meantime you can use HoloISO
I really hope Valve takes up this market with strong software. I believe Microsoft is lagging behind just using regular Windows for that.
I confirm that I will never buy anything Asus even again.
