I had it for 5 days and sent it back to Bestbuy. I'll pass on that device for now. I'll wait until the price drop. So far I'm enjoying my Steam Deck running full windows on a 2tb SSD. Playing Mw2 on the Ally kept glitching. I don't have those problems on the Steam deck. And I like having the touch pad for Remote play on my ps5
SD card issue aside. I prefer the Ally. Having the command center resouces one button away, the xg mobile for output, the screen resolution/color/refresh-rate, the weight, the audio...
Yea I got the ally on launch!! And men I love it!! I been a console player my whole life!! And the ally been a smooth transition for me!! Literally I have had no proms wit this thing!! Setting it up or anything!! everything been so smooth!! It downloaded launchers for me and things I didn’t know about!! It’s a good learning experience!! I’ve had it since launch!! And I have not had one game not launch or play for me!! LITTERALLY for me to have it a month a no games have crashed or not launched but once is pretty good!!! My temps ain’t got high at all!! I stopped playing call of duty for a while!! BUT PLAYING ON THIS DEVICE MADE OLAY AGAIN!! I also play alot of madden on it!! Madden looks like so good and runs so good on it!! I got undisputed a boxing game!! It’s in earl access but it’s a great boxing game and even more to come!! I been a console player my whole life!! AND NEVER KNEW PC GAMING WAS THIS MUCH DIFFER!! I lay in bed every night wit my wife playing cod or madden for hours!! AND THE BATTERY DONT BOTHER ME!! I got mine on battery care!! So my ally never charge past 80 percent and I still get good gaming!! I don’t mind playing in!! I’m always by a outlet and I travel wit my charger and etc!! I mean it’s basically a gaming of!! Battery life gone be funky!! But playing on battery care helps not damage the battery and etc!! So it’s built to play plugged in!! I give the ally 5 out of 5!! Like for me to never experience pc gaming!! It’s been super friendly to me!! If I need download a launcher or something etc for a game!! It directs and manually does it for me!! Like u said about the 3 month game pass!! It automatically gave my account its 3 months!! Sorry for the long comment!! BUT ITS BEEN A SMOOTH EXPERIENCE!! I think dec is a beast!! But I don’t know a lot bout pc!! So I wasn’t trying do all that dual booting and etc!! Everything is one button away!! Deck just too much tinkering for me
Dbrand stated that using a skin or vinysl cases are NOT recommended. They decided not to sell any skins for the Ally. The Ally needs the plastic case for airflow.
This is the Overkill Gaming custom overlay. It can be found in the overlay Discord under share your custom overlays. You will need to have Rivatuner and HWinfo installed for it to work. Here is a video showing how we made it... th-cam.com/video/kkSWkBsA-e0/w-d-xo.html
That's understandable. Nothing wrong with waiting until the kinks are ironed out. Personally, I love the ROG Ally. It's my favorite handheld out of the three that I own and the one I play on 99% of the time. I believe it will get even better over time.

Likewise, still love my SD but the Ally really is a little beast. Really enjoying it. Great content as always :)
Couldn't agree more!
I had it for 5 days and sent it back to Bestbuy. I'll pass on that device for now. I'll wait until the price drop. So far I'm enjoying my Steam Deck running full windows on a 2tb SSD. Playing Mw2 on the Ally kept glitching. I don't have those problems on the Steam deck. And I like having the touch pad for Remote play on my ps5

Its an awesome device. I think it will get better over time. Its my go to now
LFG!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥 Rog ally is 🔥
Yes it is! Did you get your eGPU yet?
@@OVERKILLGAMING786 can't find it man I'm trying!
The Rog Ally is definitely worth it. I love this thing!
Same here!
Dbrand stated that using a skin or vinysl cases are NOT recommended. They decided not to sell any skins for the Ally. The Ally needs the plastic case for airflow.
Yeah, what I would really like is the protective case
Is armory crate Asus? I see that on one of my pc's
Yes. That is Asus' software
What real time monitor are you using up on top of the screen?

@@OVERKILLGAMING786 got it, thanks!
❤
are you running HC on the ally?
Not yet. I spoke to the devs and they it's not 100% functioning yet
I really want to get one but honestly scared of the issues i might get
That's understandable. Nothing wrong with waiting until the kinks are ironed out. Personally, I love the ROG Ally. It's my favorite handheld out of the three that I own and the one I play on 99% of the time. I believe it will get even better over time.
thank you so muc @@OVERKILLGAMING786
