seriosly???? With 6gb vram??? No one game in 720/900/1080p needed 6gb vram, and you can see it on this tests, if you look on vram usage. Every game use 2-4gb vram maximum. but difference between 10 or 12 gb of ram you can feel it...
I've had my ally since day 1. Plenty of benchmarks show there's basically no difference in fps between 4gb/5gb/6gb vram setting on the Ally. I'd assume it's the same on the Go. But 6gb is the amount that's recommended, plenty of games were using 5.5gb vram.

I've played dozens of games on Ally and never needed to enable 6GB VRAM. I’ll note more that all the tests that I conducted on 6GB VRAM were with lower fps than on 4GB VRAM, because the amount of RAM is more important than VRAM for most games. If there is not enough VRAM, the game itself can use RAM for this. I sometimes turn on 1GB VRAM to free up RAM when I connect my rog xg mobile with rtx 3080 to Ally. This allows me to play on ultra settings at 1440p. My tests i did, when i write this comment, a few games i had on my ally now. 4vram/12ram preference (sure without rtx3080), on all games default set or like in video: 1 FH5 - 720p 115fps, 1080p 90fps (720p 95fps 1080p 75fps with 6vram/10 ram on ally, you thinking really no difference??? 15-20fps!!!) +2 FC6 - 720p 82fps, 1080p 68fps (this really no difference)👏 3 Witcher 3 (SteamD set, becase this looks better then low) - 720p 90-100fps 1080p 62-68fps (or 720p 72fps, 1080p 45fps on low set with 6vram on ally, wich better???) 4 Rise of the TR (default)- 720p 72fps, 1080p 46fpc. 5 CP2077 (SteamD set) - 720p 70fps, 1080p 48 fps. 6 Hitman trilogy (default, Dubai test map) - 720p 108fps, 1080p 69fps 7 Fifa21 (ULTRA set) 1080p 150+fps All of this you can try yourself, if you have Ally. Dont use RSR (FSR 1.0) in Armory Crate, because in game u can use FRS 2.x, its been better, use only RIS on Armory Crate, games look better with it. So after that are you thinking i didn know what i'm talking about??? 6 month i everyday use my ally like laptop and gaming console, using wih rtx3080 and 34" 3440x1440p monitor when i'm at home and without it, when i'm at work. at work i like it use with Xreal Air Glasses. on ally i complete games like atomic heart, sw jedi survivor, death stranding, far cry 6, rise of the tr, ghoswire tokyo, firewatch, jusant, as dusk falls, quantum break, control, a plague tale requiem, trek to yomi, rocket league, STARFIELD, FH5, FM2023 (very bad optimization on all pc), Hitman Trilogy, and other... really no one needed 6gb vram, on much games i unlocked all achievements.

U earn my sub for testing all 3 popular res The legion go performs like my previous gtx980 in bf3 1080p Damn that's good for a handheld I'd play with 720p and on RSR if they launch with 32gb ram later
Thanks man, I appreciate it! Yeah the Legion Go’s performance is insane especially when it comes to those older AAA games like BF3, Titanfall 2, GTA V etc. The future for handheld gaming is bright!
Great comparison. The reason why Legion mostly gets higher FPS is because it has faster RAM than Rog Ally. I bought Legion Go on day 1 at launch last year.
The Legion Go is a Z1 Extreme. I'm pretty sure that he is running an Ally Z1 Extreme. There is one model for the Legion Go. Legion Go and Ally Z1 Extreme are in a pretty similar price range comparison to the Ally Z1.
Same here, I can definitely tell a difference in smoothness with VRR. That’s why pretty much all gaming monitors have VRR because it makes a difference.
@@loitersquadXu can clearly see that on high AAA games😂. Rog ally cheaper and better with Vrr. Melted micro sd? Who tf uses that anws, m2SSD all the wae
Hello, i don't get it, where the consoles tested while plugged in or on battery power? Because the Ally has a small 10-15% perf gain while plugged in while the Legion Go has a smaller upgain.
Awesome comparison man….these things are amazing can’t go wrong with either one. I am absolutely loving my GO. Upgraded from my steam deck never looking back lol
Haha thanks man! I'm glad you're enjoying the Go. Also, same here I mostly play on these handhelds, but I still like to go back and play on my Steam Deck at times. Happy Gaming!
@SOPHISTICATED_VIBES actually I don't I live in NYC and a father of 3 I'm also a gamer when home I game on my RTX 4080 and anything portable on the go headset or ear buds
@psycholol4855 The Z1 is a huge difference, the Extreme is the same Processor that's in the Legion Go The regular Z1 is pretty bad at its original value
Does the legion go have something similar to rsr or ris... i play 900p exclusively with one of these turned on depending on how demanding the game is and i find it looks better than 1080p
The difference of 5 to 10 fps on the go is negated by the vrr.. the go stutters much more often and the vrr on the ally makes 40 or 50 fps look ridiculously smooth
@@stephendoerrer4464don't answer your own question with a false statement silly. The go absolutely hasn't stuttered one time no matter what I've thrown at it lol
@luciddr3ams315 I'm returning mine for the ally today because no matter what I've done I can't get rid of stuttering. Between the stutter and it randomly minimizing my games while I'm in the middle of a match. I was playing overwatch and it minimized the game probably 5 or 6 times in 30 mins.
@DoubleDrastik crysis is a very old game lol of course handhelds can run crysis above 60. Hell, even the switch can run crysis. If u hack it, u can run it at 60 too
I will continue to prefer the Rog, smaller and more manageable, ok the Go has 2k but we all know that on a small device we go for 1080p maximum for performance, this is the only video I saw with the Lenovo which had 10 or more fps difference, it seems strange to me, all the other videos are almost similar or the same in fps rate, for 150 euros to have such a minimal change in fps, it's not personally worth buying the ally
It's a short difference if you don't see any difference between 1080p and 2k screen resolution. I think that if you wanna do something more than playing, Legion Go can overpass the Rog Ally, for my purpose, asus Rog Ally beats Legion Go, but for others that will use for streaming, or something different, Lenovo Legion Go can be a better option.
I've been trying to decide which to buy between these 2...I feel like the Rog's picture looks brighter in some games and idk just looks better although the Go Fps are usually higher...ima prolly go with the Ally
Does crab game work on asus or legion? I have a steam deck but I can’t get past the main menus. Nothing works so I can’t play it. I’m hoping these two other consoles work so I can buy one if it plays crab game.
Ofcourse it wil bro. The main issue is dat on windows handeld you can play from this year and all the way back. You could even play Day Z with modded servers via dzsa launcher. This is not possible on SD. Only original game. No modded servers. No anti cheat. You could even in theorie play DCS on LG. Your crab game will probaply run at 120-160 FPS 1920 res
Both seem awesome i got the rog got sent to another state for work with like a 24 hours notice didnt research just grabbed what was available kinda wish i got the legion but i cant really say anything bad about the ally either
What an awesome comparison. As someone who just ordered an Ally Extreme, I'm a new sub to your channel, and look forward to your opinions and perspectives.
@@B-Diddy-6 as long as ur happy is what matters I was leaning towards the alley to be honest especially now that's on sale at best buy for $600 and $504 open box excellent
Y is there not topic on burnt as cards or ghosting analog sticks. The Asus rog is made of cheap material that's y there so many open boxes at Best buy for 470$ for a extreme model. I returned mine and got the go an it's so much better
first video ive seen that shows legion go outperforming rog ally on fps... i dont know man, you should get a new rog ally and make sure its the z1 extreme xD
Yes, it’s just that more demanding games like newer AAA games is where you’ll see these handhelds struggle to maintain a high refresh rate at 1080p. Happy gaming!
@@lettuce213 so you did get fvcked in the ass for that price. For half of that Anker's 24k mAh unit cost I have 56k mAh and it gives me like 5-6 hours of gaming on Ally. Did not use 100% of Ally's and that single powerbank's capacity even once yet, there's always something left. And I've got 3 units of the same powerbank for Macbook, iPad, iPhone, Apple watch and Ally.
Awesome detailed video man, much appreciated! I’m on the fence between the ROG and the GO I mainly want to play MW3 and I’m drawn to the look and the screen size of the Go Your Video also shows the performance is slightly better than the Ally However I saw and read quite some people saying the Ally is currently the more polished and updated one when it comes to software and more straight forward and well thought , is this true or have the recent Lenovo updates fixed the issues the Go had?
Thanks, I appreciate it! Yeah I would say the Ally is a more polished product when it comes to the user experience like the customer UI. The Legion Go has gotten better over time. Hope this helps!
@@faristriesgamingtech appreciate the quick reply When I mainly want to play COD and probably solely at home , do you have a recommendation which one of them might be the better option ?
I got the legion go. Mw3 is amazing on it! set you're cpu or whatever to 6 core, game display set to 1600p.Game settings medium. On the screen set to 1200p got whats the fps is but it runs so smooth!
@@nils0603 legion go is very solid to play with and connect to another monitor and disconnect the controllers you have another screen or a tablet, i use it to play games in tablet mode to, it also have very solid performance and with more updates it get even better
It still is, just not every test. The benchmarks clearly demonstrate the superior system being the Ally, its okay tho. Ally won this battle, the war isnt over, the beta males still have a chance at winning!
@@Techguy104It's not always about the performance, take a look at the Steam Deck Oled, it may not be as powerful as its competitors but it's the best overall PC gaming handheld.
@@jeanfrancoisjulien8890 Or you can just enable integer scaling at 800p on the Legion Go and it would look as good as 1200p, and no... 720p on the Ally doesn't look as good as 1200p on the LeGo
Nice video. Glad you decided to keep as many variables constant as you could. Looks like the Go gets about 5-10% more performance which is about expected because of the RAM. Cool comparison.
Been playing tiny tina on my legion go. Got it off steam and i have to have it at 1920x1200 60hz and almost everything at low in the game options just to get 60fps. Sucks but still looks really good ironically.

I've been trying to decide which to buy between these 2...I feel like the Rog's picture looks brighter in some games and idk just looks better although the Go Fps are usually higher...ima prolly go with the Ally
What do you prefer Lenovo legion go or rog ally or steam deck?
You are definitely look like Francis Ngannou as facial structure. Did you ever hear that 😊. Also awesome video thanks for your effort.
Haha no I haven’t but after looking him up I can see what you are talking about 😂
Legion go is super underrated. Im glad i have one 😄
You legion Go seems working great. Can you share a video how you set it up to be that consistently smooth? Video can be applicable to ROG also
This would be a good idea 😊
I request can you review on pico 4 vr which console is the best to go either rog ally or steam deck
Hope you also compare Legion Go to rog ally X when it release. I finally consider rog ally x cuz of better storage and Ram.
the go has two usb 4 ports. They are also Thunderbolt 3 for egpu setups. That was some reason going with the go.
The best comparison vídeo. Thanks, well done.
Thanks, means a lot!
But does the Go have Vrr?
How long would the battery last playing mw3 on low settings ?? If I may ask please
45 mins💀
Does crab game work on asus or legion? I have a steam deck but I can’t get past the main menus. Nothing works so I can’t play it. I’m hoping these two other consoles work so I can buy one if it plays crab game.
Ofcourse it wil bro. The main issue is dat on windows handeld you can play from this year and all the way back. You could even play Day Z with modded servers via dzsa launcher. This is not possible on SD. Only original game. No modded servers. No anti cheat. You could even in theorie play DCS on LG. Your crab game will probaply run at 120-160 FPS 1920 res
I already bought the Ally, been loving it from the first day. Love the Legion Go big screen and innovative controller tho.
Can legion go play inzoi? I really want to try it on the future..
Dismay of this console, what i played is Assassin's Creed Odyssey but it cannot reach 60fps even in medium settings 😅 thanks for the review bro
rog screen seems better? am I wrong ?
Smaller screen equals more PPI pixels per inch
Colors are more accurate because it's not oversaturated like the Go
Both seem awesome i got the rog got sent to another state for work with like a 24 hours notice didnt research just grabbed what was available kinda wish i got the legion but i cant really say anything bad about the ally either
didnt notice in the video but was this the rog ally extreme?
Z1 extreme
3:48 z1 extreme on ally
Fantastic video. Great Job
Thanks a lot!
What an awesome comparison. As someone who just ordered an Ally Extreme, I'm a new sub to your channel, and look forward to your opinions and perspectives.
Thanks! I hope you enjoy the Ally when you get it.
Should of gotten the legion go after seeing this video I ordered the legion go
@@kyokushin1289 nah. I'm happy with my Ally. I hope you enjoy your Go!
@@B-Diddy-6 as long as ur happy is what matters I was leaning towards the alley to be honest especially now that's on sale at best buy for $600 and $504 open box excellent
@@kyokushin1289 yup. Got mine for $400 CDN, and can't really complain. Probably end getting the second or third gen when it comes out too
What about Genshin Impact and wuthering waves? (which both are demanding games)
That Sopranos ending tho..
Why there is no topic about VRR here? 😅
Because thats call cheating lol
@@rommelchristophermanicad4389 It ain't cheating, wth 🗿
@@m4x_payn3_enjoyer its just a joke .. i mean he did not mention it maybe because that will win the ally in every LOW fps scenario
Y is there not topic on burnt as cards or ghosting analog sticks. The Asus rog is made of cheap material that's y there so many open boxes at Best buy for 470$ for a extreme model. I returned mine and got the go an it's so much better
I want to play cities skylines 2 and planet zoo on the go does it work
Is the ROG ally z1 extreme version?
Yup, this is the Z1 extreme version.
@@faristriesgamingtech ah 😊
Of coarse they use the same chip
first video ive seen that shows legion go outperforming rog ally on fps... i dont know man, you should get a new rog ally and make sure its the z1 extreme xD
Nicely executed 😊👍
Thanks, I appreciate it!
why are you testing with 720? why don't you test them on their native resolution?
He did
And they said this handhelds are struggling to keep up, so 1080p @60fps is doable ? 😮😮My God!
Yes, it’s just that more demanding games like newer AAA games is where you’ll see these handhelds struggle to maintain a high refresh rate at 1080p. Happy gaming!
Best comparison video ive seen! Great job and helpful as im deciding between these 2
Great comparison I’m happy i went with the Legion Go but the ally does have thr advantage of being able to use an egpu with that connector.
also LG can use egpu
How do you get 720 900 and 1080p on the legion go?
ya dont
Reallly comprehensive with one notable absence, an ea sports game like fc24 - notoriously bad! Thanks for this.
Both systems work differently
Legion: higher speed ram no vrr
Ally: lower ram speed with vrr
Can you try Wreckfest?
Hi can you do a rainbow six siege gameplay on the legion go please
Loved Rog Ally ❤❤❤. Both Ally & Go much more better than Deck ❤❤❤
Gotta get a Deadly portable power bank unless you want your battery to die in an hour
@@lettuce213 But with good powerbank you will have like 6-8 hours, so it's more than enough.
@Floyd_ish I got the Anker 737, and on Turbo gets me another hour or two.
@@lettuce213 so you did get fvcked in the ass for that price. For half of that Anker's 24k mAh unit cost I have 56k mAh and it gives me like 5-6 hours of gaming on Ally.
Did not use 100% of Ally's and that single powerbank's capacity even once yet, there's always something left.
And I've got 3 units of the same powerbank for Macbook, iPad, iPhone, Apple watch and Ally.
@@Floyd_ish deadly. Got a link?
I dunno which one to get was gonna go with the asus but now am not sure
Me too
Awesome detailed video man, much appreciated!
I’m on the fence between the ROG and the GO
I mainly want to play MW3 and I’m drawn to the look and the screen size of the Go
Your Video also shows the performance is slightly better than the Ally
However I saw and read quite some people saying the Ally is currently the more polished and updated one when it comes to software and more straight forward and well thought , is this true or have the recent Lenovo updates fixed the issues the Go had?
Thanks, I appreciate it! Yeah I would say the Ally is a more polished product when it comes to the user experience like the customer UI. The Legion Go has gotten better over time. Hope this helps!
@@faristriesgamingtech appreciate the quick reply
When I mainly want to play COD and probably solely at home , do you have a recommendation which one of them might be the better option ?
The Legion go also feels more like a premium handheld, and the bigger screen is just beautiful.@@nils0603
I got the legion go. Mw3 is amazing on it! set you're cpu or whatever to 6 core, game display set to 1600p.Game settings medium. On the screen set to 1200p got whats the fps is but it runs so smooth!
@@nils0603 legion go is very solid to play with and connect to another monitor and disconnect the controllers you have another screen or a tablet, i use it to play games in tablet mode to, it also have very solid performance and with more updates it get even better
So it means go with latest update peforms faster than ally. Iremeber when go launched,it is slower than ally in every test.
It still is, just not every test. The benchmarks clearly demonstrate the superior system being the Ally, its okay tho. Ally won this battle, the war isnt over, the beta males still have a chance at winning!
Get wait for you to try MSI Claw?
I will be getting the MSI Claw for sure, I’m excited to see how the Intel chip will perform!
Ngl I was going get the rog ally but after watching this video I'm stuck now because the go won in performance in this video
I don't know which one to get
@@Techguy104It's not always about the performance, take a look at the Steam Deck Oled, it may not be as powerful as its competitors but it's the best overall PC gaming handheld.
If you want a lil more FPS, then the GO is the way
in real life, legion under 1200p sux.. screen not clear...720p on ally is better than 1080p on the legion..
@@jeanfrancoisjulien8890 Or you can just enable integer scaling at 800p on the Legion Go and it would look as good as 1200p, and no... 720p on the Ally doesn't look as good as 1200p on the LeGo
Better than the sh*t deck
Tenías las consolas cargando o desconectadas?
La legión Go tiene para poner tarjeta externa como la Rog Ally?
Someone actually testing games that I'd like to play? That's awesome lol
What overlay is he using?
I’m using MSI Afterburner, it’s really awesome!
No 15w ?
What about legion go 1600p, test that out
When we get this performance at 10-15 watts, that's when I'm ready to buy.
Nice video. Glad you decided to keep as many variables constant as you could.
Looks like the Go gets about 5-10% more performance which is about expected because of the RAM. Cool comparison.
Thanks, I appreciate it! Glad you enjoyed it.
How to set vram to 6gb
Great video. LOVE my L Go.
the GO not having VRR was for me the reason to choose the Ally.. amazing diffrence to see with your own eyes.
Yeah, VRR makes a difference especially at lower frame rates. Hope to see VRR implemented into more handhelds in the future. Happy Gaming!
i buy legion go on this month . ally as windows device 7 inch screen too smart .
TBH, 5-10fps differences are not small if you compare like 3060ti and 3070… Lenovo clearly wins this
Still, ROG Ally has VRR, so even with a bit less performance, it will look as if it has more of it.
Rog ally 1 word VRR!!! 🔥🔥🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
great vid
Been playing tiny tina on my legion go. Got it off steam and i have to have it at 1920x1200 60hz and almost everything at low in the game options just to get 60fps. Sucks but still looks really good ironically.
You should try running it at 800p with integer scaling enabled, looks crispier then the default 800p
Why are the go colors off? Ally looks far more accurate.
The Go has a wider color gamut screen so all the colors are over saturated thanks to windows color not clamping everything properly
This is the only video I've ever seen where the Legion Go is outperfoming thr Ally. Idk i kinda feel like you're doing something wrong
