Is there a link explaining what rsr fsr is and how to use it properly?

kakarott · 21 Jun 2023 at 09:07

How's everyone getting on? I was tinkering a good few hours yesterday with rtss overlay that I didn't even play anything on it lol.

Anyone using hibernation on the ally?

So a a lot of SD cards are being fried, most likely due to overheating. Posts all over the place on Reddit.

I did this, worked well. Definitely lower temps.

So the full NVME fits under the battery?

Did battery slightly improve?

Yea good few people have done it but involves cutting bit of plastic I believe.

These chipsets are awesome, you could just do it on the internal screen to replicate, the Ally would be superior with the higher TDPs available and the seemingly better z1 chip but don't think its going to do Ultimate well with 16Gb.

I thought the 7840U turned out to be slightly better than the Z1 Extreme?

Thinking of swapping SSD which I've had a file while. However reading cloud recovery is really slow, anyone done it yet?

My Ally arrived Saturday, what a device.

Been perfect so far, the screen is gorgeous compared to my Deck and feels a lot lighter (Even though I know its barely any different) due to the size difference.

Been running MW2 which has been smooth, Ori looks fantastic on the screen, Time for the Deck to be sold for me.

Just don't use the microSD card slot for now as there are confirmed issues.

kakarott · 12 Aug 2023 at 10:29

I like the form factor

Yup the console on these is not amazing, my device is a sister device to the onexfly running all the same stuff, Asus Armoury crate looks amazing.

For launcher you can use playnite but per game profile is definitely handy.

Leaked images reveal Lenovo’s Steam Deck competitor that may connect to AR glasses

It apparently has removable controllers.

Colour me interested

kakarott · 17 Aug 2023 at 19:45

Looks a bit chunky so guessing battery life will be better than the Rog. Not why there's a button directly behind the controller, can see accidental presses
