Don't sleep on the Ally. I fucking LOVE this thing. I haven't had any issues running anything I've asked it to at impressive specs (med to high for most). That includes Diablo 4, Cyberpunk, Witcher 3, No Man's Sky, Dying Light 2 just to make a few.
I was saving up for a steam deck but then I heard about this bad boy and Best Buy offered financing and I was sold.
No regrets.
Does the Ally work as a standard PC if you plug in a mouse+kb? I've heard steam deck can do that.
Looking to replace my ancient PC, which is slowly dying. Cyberpunk, Diablo 4, and Baldurs Gate 3 are the big games I'm looking to play. If you factor in my huge backlog, anything that cam run those 3 smoothly could last me years.
My office space is tiny, a small shelf and the smallest desk IKEA had. Currently thinking of an intel nuc, but I kinda like the sound of a portable I can play on the train into work or a coffee shop. If it can double as a low paper desktop, ot may be a winner.
