@wonziu we don't know for sure (we will know next week) but the rumors say 699 USD for the cheapest model.

@boilingsteam I have no interest in M$ gamingand as stated by others, shoe horning the OS into other form factors does not work well since it is not open.

It being Windows 11 based seems like it will have a lot of issues as drivers likely won’t be updated and maintained long.

@thendrix yeah, that's expected but hey ain't that what Windows is all about, if not planned obsolescence?

@boilingsteam SteamDeck, for sure, even if Ally is a very good rig, i'd rather use an optimized linux based OS than a M$ one. Sorry Asus

@boilingsteamReally? The rumors I read said that it was 699 USD for the most expensive, not that it changes my answer either way, the deck is to customizable for me to really see them as competitors, not to mention half the things I play on it wouldn't work with just your standard controller layout

@boilingsteam SteamDeck all the way, not interested in a portable gaming device running windows. Though, I recon it won't be long before somebody gets Linux and/or SteamOS 3.x running on it.

@dirkdierickx Even if you have SteamOS running on it, it won't be official and you won't have all the integration you have on the Steam Deck (with TDP modification on the fly, etc)

@boilingsteam I get the feeling the ROG will fall somewhat short on the software side, and that it will have a lot of rough edges...

@boilingsteam For me it's more that the Steam Deck still isn't available in Australia so if Asus can beat them then they'll probably get my money.

@a1ba that's why it's an inferior product by design... no fps possible on this machine

@boilingsteam I’m super tempted of the rumored prices are correct. I doubt that it would be easy but I’d prefer Linux on it as my interest in that platform has grown since getting a Steam Deck last year.

@boilingsteam No trackpads nor gyro means most games will be unplayable without an external controller. And by that I mean Dualshocks.

@boilingsteam My concern here is about cost once it makes its way here to Singapore.

@boilingsteam it'll definitely kill the 512GB deck.

@rotopenguin yeah, the 512 GB Steam Deck is over-priced even before the ROG Ally comes out.

@boilingsteam I will keep supporting Valve/SteamDeck as long as they continue to support Linux.
