It had to happen, ASUS just lifted the veil on its ROG Ally, an overpowered portable console bringing the mush to the Steam Deck.
Valve’s Steam Deck has some issues. Indeed, here comes the time of the ASUS ROG Ally. A console designed to compete directly with Valve’s development. It must be said that this new product has strong arguments, thanks in particular to a hardware that is very well finished and particularly powerful. See instead.
Rog Ally or Steam Deck?
First of all, at the heart of the ASUS Rog Ally we find a six-core AMD Ryzen Z1 chip and an RDNA 3 graphics chip that uses AMD’s Super Resolution FidelityFX and Super Resolution scaling technologies. This is exactly where we are far ahead of a steam deck when it comes to powerful Brute
For display, the ROG Ally has a screen Full HD 120 Hz (Unfortunately without OLED) Seven inches able to display up to 500 nits of brightness a response time of 7 ms. ASUS wanted to favor the reactivated (120Hz) as there is currently no 7-inch OLED panel. In addition to the GPU and CPU, there is 16 GB of LPDDR5 RAM. Not bad, right? The Rog Ally also announces support for Dolby Atmos through the speakers to have audio that matches what’s played on the screen. The entire package has a total weight of only 608 g.
Le ROG Ally beats the Steam Deck
As far as storage goes, the ROG Ally comes with it an SSD of 512 Go, which can be further expanded with a microSD card. For the rest of the suggestions, while the Steam Deck uses its own SteamOS as its default operating system, the ROG Ally will allow users to access games from a variety of PC platforms because it works on windows 11. You should be able to use all your PC accessories, including controllers, headphones, mice, and keyboards. Great news.
Finally, The console uses a specially designed cooling system, which Asus says is quiet and barely noticeable when using the ROG Ally speakers. We know ASUS when it comes to cooling, and it’s hard to have any doubts on this site.
