Got my ROG ally yesterday as a Christmas present from me to me. It's the best thing I've ever got my self

Coming from Steam Deck to the Ally one thing that blew me away was the speakers sound quality and volume.

Another quick tip for you guys. By default, the Display resolution scaling is set to 150%, it makes your Windows fonts and elements, as well as application, a bit larger so it's usable on a small screen, but if you find things to still be too small, try changing your resolution scale to 175%. It's in your display settings. I found the 175% to be much more pleasant to use, for me.

i got my ROG Ally X today as a early christmas present from my mom, these tips actually helped with my Ally X, thanks!!

The fingerprint being pre-cached is seriously an eye opener! I didn't mess with it at first, thinking I'd rather type in a PIN instead of having to reach for the power button a second time, BUT the pre-cache even works from a complete shut down boot! So smooth.

Those back paddle button shortcuts are very handy. I would have never thought about looking those up. Thanks for the info. Great video.

BRO, THIS IS AWESOME, YOUR CONTENT IS AWESOME, YOU EXPLAINED THIS EXCELENT, I JUST GOT MY ALLY AND MADE IT FASTER AND EVERYTHING

[starryishh]

Great video, but you lost me a v-sync. How the heck do i get to this setting?

[BristolMatt]

Why are people disliking this video? I have found it more than helpful. Thank you bud.

You actually can turn off Dolby ONLY for headphones. It's done in the windows sound output settings. When you plug in a headphone, windows sound output settings will show 'headphones' and in there, there are two fields you can set to disabled which will only affect the headphone output (leaving speaker effects (dolby) intact) : Audio Enhancements & Spatial Audio. If you disable those, you'll be good to go whenever you plug in headphones.

In cyberpunk I was able to get better frames using rsr and putting the game resolution at 720p. Rsr upscales to 1080p and the frame boost over FSR is alot and is very noticeable. Try it out with various games it's hit or miss whether for or rsr is better but don't cancel it completely. Thanks for your video very informative!

[thydevdom]

The point you made at the end is spot on. Nice video!!

[Tmpossible]

Thank you man ! Macro buttons are gamechanger for me

[troyallen]

One thing.

As a music nut, I will always say that audio is completely personal, no one will hear the same way you do. While Dolby is amazing from 5.1 ch audio presets, always tweak EQ to your own preference and play around with the EQ until you find your own balance. Also no one speaker is the same so you might find your Headsets audio is deeper than your other Headset or portable speaker.

"See how fast that finger print is just set it up" best tipper ever

[Jake-mwcs]

Anyone that just got one and wondering why the graphics on the games suck, make sure you update all updates and then go to browser and Google ROG ally drivers and download all the new drivers. It will fix all crashing and graphics issues. I almost returned mine until I figured it out

[jamescatchot]

It's nice finding videos like this, where I can pick up on some tricks. It makes me love the Ally that much more.

[paulwall]

You’re right all we need back in the day with 30 FPS and everybody had a blast now everybody wants 120140 FPS you don’t need all that just enjoy appreciate the tips

[shira]

I found a sweet spot for me. 720p with AMD RSR enabled. It allows me to play most games in Med-Ultra graphics with well 70-100fps.

I dropped a like and a sub thanks man I just got one yesterday and this really helped
