I bought my ally yesterday. 30 minutes setup and 1 hr for game installation and damn, this little puppy blow my mind. I played RE2, Cyberpunk 2077 and Baldur's Gate at 720p and it runs games flawlessly.
@@Steelninja77 GTX 1060 3GB, and i5-8600k CPU. I'm definitely due for an upgrade. Just purchaed today the dock accessories I'll need to connect my mouse, keyboard, and 2 monitors to the ROG Ally.
See. I got mine to play MMOs, I play WoW with Mods, and I absolutely love it. I can play other games, too, though I have a gaming rig for the higher end titles. This thing plays wow perfectly imo.
22:48 - you should probably put the Ally in the bag with the screen facing inwards, the bent cushions are there so the joysticks are protected. Also has a layer of soft material to protect the screen. I have the same one and would also recommend it to anyone who doesn't have one yet.
Just got my ally 2 days ago! So far I'm loving it! Got a ps5 too plus my little lad has the Xbox X and switch! My household is full of tech right now 😂
I bought the same case (modcase) and ended up cutting the top rubber lips that go around the shoulder buttons making it so much easier to slip the ally in and out of the case.
Bought the z1 extreme on Black Friday I love it amazing for single player games I feel like the battery dies to quickly playing multiplayer games requiring consistent Internet connections
I have to say you gave so many accessories and I have to say I am very happy to not see you say anything about xg mobile! Shows the viewers that you know that would not be a good or even a accessory to even consider since it is constantly out of stock, overpriced, and not a great product overall considering all the issues it has. I will use this video for the lenovo go since that to me may be the better option once software improves or if you decide to make another video later on for the lenovo that would be awesome as well!

Loving my ROG Ally! I have some similar basic ones shown -- folding bluetooth keyboard/mousepad, a hard case for travel (its mobile, so im mobile), a dock, bluetooth controller for docked, etc. Ive been really hesitant to get a rubber sleeve type case. Does this Jsaux case interfere with typical docks and fitting in them? Ive seen that some do... Thanks!
Thank you very much for this amazing list! I'm not a ROG Ally owner, instead opting for a Legion Go. Your video had a couple of things that I was wanting to find online sooner or later: 140 watt charger, 100 USB-C Cable (the angle adapter was 60 watt max, so probably not that, even though it interested me), and the dock with two video outputs. With that... erm... and an extremely expensive external GPU, my new handheld might be able to replace my 2017 rig. But first thing's first. These items off this video are affordable short-term.
Great video man ! It clearly shows you are pasionate about what you are doing ! A lot of explanation and very very good shooting angles and such. A lot of youtubers should learn from you !
That 90 degree angle usb c dongle is a game changer , as soon as i seen it on youre video i ordered it. Im not a huge fan of the lead fitting in the top. Just does not seem sturdy. Thanks mate.
my problem with the mod case is you cant have thumbstick grips on it. i have the skull cap thumbsticks and the cover wont completely close and you cant see the stick being held downward. i wish the cover gave a little more clearance
Hey there boss thanks for the awesome video. Just had a question on if you have a bag recommendation for the portable monitor? Didn’t think it’d fit in that bag you had in the video lol
Just wanted to know something.. The last carrying bag mentioned, can it hold a nintendo switch (with plenbo g case) ALONG WITH a rog ally (with jsaux modcase), power bank, controller, and foldable keyboard?
great video! subscribed! - As for wireless audio, with low-latency gaming mode. Moondrop Space Travel ($30), soundcore VR P10 ($70), ROG Cetra Buds ($80)
im thinking about buying this next week. i wanted to know if i could use my samsung tab s9 ultra to connect to the asus or do i have to purchase a portable monitor
Omg you made my day omg I was looking for case that had strap for power bank .. I just ordered thank ver much .. nice all accessories that we haven’t seen , thank thank
The best accessory that I have seen right now, is the right angle connector that allows you to fit a full sized 2280 NVME into the 2230 NVME slot. The reason being that it, basically, converts your Rog Ally Z1 Extreme into a Rog X for, like, half the price of a Rog X, scene as how the only real difference between the two systems, apart from the difference in the size of the drives that they support, is that the X has 8GB more DDR5 ram than the Z1 Extreme. Other than that, there isn't a lot of difference between the two systems, not enough to justify the price gap, if I am being honest. I mean, how much of an impact on performance can having 8GB extra memory really have? It's not like you'll get 15FPS more in games all of a sudden, just because you have 8GB more system memory.
What i did with the card slot i went into the control center on armoury and then you go to storage and it should detect whatever card you have have in it
Very good and informative video, these gaming handheld devices can improve a lot with accessories. However I deeply want an improved version of the ROG ally with a 1080p 240Hz OLED display, for example the display of the steam deck OLED is league ahead of ROG ally and Lenovo legion Go
There's lots you can do but think of it like any other windows device. Maybe I'll make a video on optimizations I've done so far to improve performance on it :)
My guy turned into BLADE when he put the glasses on 😂 great video love it! I’ve been debating the rokix max
😂😂😂 it looks ridiculous but it’s fun to use
Just got my ally yesterday and im loving it. Def need to pick up some of these suggestions. Great vid!
To say the speakers are okay is a pretty big understatement.
This is a goated accessory video. Just picked one up on sale, and was looking at options to improve. Thanks for this man. Great job!
Fantastic Video! Picked up an Asus ROG Ally Z1 Extreme for less than $500 and have been looking for quality accessories. Thanks for the video!
Dude, thank you so MUCH! I’m buying myself one this week for my birthday and love the idea of customizing this thing and making it modular

Question about BG3 gameplay....how does it fare in Act 3? Even my desktop pc has some issues in Act 3. My steam deck also.
What gpu and cpu does your desktop PC have just out of interest? @@NewVenari

this is actually one of the best accessory videos i've ever seen even stuff i would never consider those glasses are an awesome idea
I just got me an Ally and have already purchased a few of your recommendations. Thank you brother!

Honestly been watching bro for a little while but that last bag strap shot really made me realize just how buff bro is. Like dude is YOLKED😅
This video got so much aesthetics into it, that’s insane!
About time a video with great accessories instead of the same old recycled stuff. Thank you good sir.
I found the skull and co grip case to be the best case for the Ally. The case itself is designed as a stand
Love to hear that you found a solid case :)
I bought the same case (modcase) and ended up cutting the top rubber lips that go around the shoulder buttons making it so much easier to slip the ally in and out of the case.
I’m glad you found a way to make that easier to put on for yourself. It’s definitely not the easiest thing to do.

Yea never cared much for the xg mobile
While I do think it’s overpriced, it’s the same price as a regular 4090 so it’s not entirely on ROG for the price point.
@@Fetidaf, it's not a real 4090.

Another great storage upgrade option is an angled internal hdd adapter to install cheaper and larger 2280 nvm drives.
Yeah just picked it up cheaper to use a m.2 I already have then buy a new one
Bro is jacked!
Brilliant video with so much info. Thanks!
Great video man ! It clearly shows you are pasionate about what you are doing ! A lot of explanation and very very good shooting angles and such. A lot of youtubers should learn from you !
Just got my Rog Ally, thanks for all the recommendations man, great video!
Also an important fact is the inui battery the 2nd one you showed is still airline acceptable it's about 99wh so no issues flying with it.
Please can you give info on the gadget bag
Great video and excellent explanations on all the accessories 👍🏼
Thank you 🙏🏾
That 90 degree angle usb c dongle is a game changer , as soon as i seen it on youre video i ordered it. Im not a huge fan of the lead fitting in the top. Just does not seem sturdy. Thanks mate.
About the modcase… Its quite a weight that is added to the ally. I dont know if i like it… trying to
11:19 is rather have it on top then the bottom of the system it doesn’t bend from the top
5:14 why does the rog ally transparent backplate have PlayStation button symbols haha ( im still buying it )
You can use 2280 ssds, just need to mod the adapters a tiny bit
What is that wall mounted board with your bags and lenses on it at 14:40? Really enjoyed the video!
I haven't had many issues with mine, but I got mine when the updates came and I new about the SD card problem so I upgraded my SSD
my problem with the mod case is you cant have thumbstick grips on it. i have the skull cap thumbsticks and the cover wont completely close and you cant see the stick being held downward. i wish the cover gave a little more clearance
Gaming and muscles. You're my motivation, brother!
fijate que son estilos de vida complementados. observa su entorno: disciplina
Arm genetics on point sir!! Just got my ally and this video gave me a massive shopping list 😂
Hey there boss thanks for the awesome video. Just had a question on if you have a bag recommendation for the portable monitor? Didn’t think it’d fit in that bag you had in the video lol
Great video. Thanks for your suggestions.
Can you make a video showing the best wireless gaming keyboards?
Amazing video. Question: will the original ROG power adaptor power that docking station?
Your videos are always dope brother 🤙🏽 thanks this helped a lot !
Yo what happened to your usb c cable @11:01 does a damaged cable like that still work well?
Just wanted to know something.. The last carrying bag mentioned, can it hold a nintendo switch (with plenbo g case) ALONG WITH a rog ally (with jsaux modcase), power bank, controller, and foldable keyboard?
Just got mine couple days ago this really help with what I need thank you!
Great video! I've seen that you rooms and everything is very clean everywhere do you have any tips for cleaning?
Thanks! The trick is to add a cleaning schedule to your calender. I like to clean my spaces twice a month :)
@@midasgamespace thank you so much!
Thanks man you made my life better
My asus came with a 2 tb ssd, im guessing it was the company i bought it from that did that? Itd working great so far
The second case,the one with the clear back what does that electronic piece do?
What's the point of the modified backplate if the vents still covered on some areas due to the RGB plate
Tks so much for making this content. They re what I’m loojing for to upgrade my Rog Ally.❤
Great video…also…THAT BICEP PUMP IS CRAZZYYY
Thank you for all the tips.
Wow, I didn’t know you also review stuff for the Ally, this is good content!
great video! subscribed! - As for wireless audio, with low-latency gaming mode. Moondrop Space Travel ($30), soundcore VR P10 ($70), ROG Cetra Buds ($80)
Looking into this now - on amazon the Jsaux dock is only advertised at 4k@60 hz. Can you validate what you said by it being 120hz?
im thinking about buying this next week. i wanted to know if i could use my samsung tab s9 ultra to connect to the asus or do i have to purchase a portable monitor
Can the rog ally work with Pocket Ai A500 as an alternative external gpu?
Awesome video man. Ypu answered a lot of questions I had. Thanks for the info!

Do you have a video about setting up the TDP wat on Rog Ally?
I bought the 16.1 arzopa from amazon, but it doesn’t come with the foldable case like yours?
does the $74.99 ModCase comes with the power bank?
The powerbank gadget its dope🔥

Do the Ally X!
Can u play play station remote play games with Bluetooth remote ? Or does it have to be plugged into it?
Do you connect the last dock to the original charger that the rog ally comes with?
I love your videos and I just got my rog ally and I’ve been watching ally your rog videos!
What i did with the card slot i went into the control center on armoury and then you go to storage and it should detect whatever card you have have in it
Man had to buss out the guns at the end 😂 respect it bro. Thanks for video
Bro! I follow your workout videos. I didn't know you did gaming content, too. That's dope. Love my ally, btw.
Midas, how's the latency on those soundcore liberty 4 earbuds?Love your channel. Greetings from México 🇲🇽
Thanks for this, gooptional for battery pb's , its battery is atrocious , id love to change the stock battery some day, even if it adds size/weight

Thank you! And you know updated models of these things don’t take too long to drop.
240hz is not necessary for the current soc rn. An OLED and more energy efficient cpu along with 32gb ram is a great upgrade if happen
Any recommendations to optimize this neat device?
There's lots you can do but think of it like any other windows device. Maybe I'll make a video on optimizations I've done so far to improve performance on it :)
Great video brother
Amazing video!
Very impressed with the video and how it is put together, thanks friend
Thanks for stopping by! ☺️
Gracias por compartir estos accesorios, creo que primero me compraré el monitor y dock. Saludos desde México tienes un nuevo suscriptor. 👌✌️
honesetly they gave me the side grips for free because of a delay with another item and it's actually more slippery...looks good but feels slippery
Great Video!
I love the portbale monitor ❤❤
Some great recommendations, not sure about the glasses, They make you look like a blind man trying to use a handheld PC.
Do you have one for the rog ally x
You're killing me here. New Ally owner and I want ALL the things! My wallet hates you
Where did you get the XG mobile port cover?
Surprise ya didn't add the Rog Ally Handheld Conversion 2230 to 2280 SSD Expansion Board
That's a solid one too but I have no experience using it myself
Is this the Rog Extreme?
Legion go for the win 🥇 🎉
But thank you for this, I need things like these also do one for the Lenovo Go I'm getting mine tomorrow
Anyone have an opinion hard case mod to use the mod case with a external display while charging?
Figure it could cause a slight issue with thermals.
How did you learn how to film and edit your vids
No matter how big screens will become in the future his biceps will always be bigger :D
Wish they had a matte black skin. That’s another reason I’m moving to the Ally x
Great video. Thank you
