  • Good upgrade for an Ally - but be aware of misleading / inaccurate listings
Style: RX 6850M
I purchased this to pair with the ROG Ally. The 2023 version is based on a RTX 4090 which is overkill for the Ally (might as well get a PC for home) but the 2022 RX 6850M seemed just right. This had been out of stock FOREVER. When it did get back in stock it was expensive ($840) but I jumped at the chance. That was a mistake (see later) but I am very happy with the GPU. I have read reviews where others saw issues with it not connecting, etc but it has worked flawlessly for me. The huge upgrade in GPU performance has been great and makes a good overall package: portability with some extra kick at home. Around the $700 mark feels right, any more expensive and I think you can get more bang for your buck. The negatives were more on the Amazon/Seller side than on the product. It wasn't until it arrived that I realized it was USED - no indication on the listing. I spoke to Amazon who offered to return it for a refund, I checked and there were two in stock which were $629 (cheap) and they were not listed as used, but based on what I've seen I suspect they were. But within a hour or so they were out of stock. Ideally I'd return it because $840 is too much for used but I cannot find it in stock anywhere. In my previous experience Amazon has been great with customer service and returns but in this case I was very disappointed with how they handled it. ... show more

  • ROG Ally with a 3080... No complaints here
Style: RTX 3080
The media could not be loaded. So, every negative comment I've ever seen about the XG mobile with the ROG Ally was pretty much false for me with one exception. The fan is loud under full load but my sound is usually set louder. I don't understand the negatives here. I even tried to break it and see what the problem is. It docks and undocks just fine. It's ridiculously powerful. I have the desktop version and I honestly am 2nd guessing even owning a desktop right now. Granted, I'm playing at 1080p on a mobile monitor but the FPS is perfect for pretty much all modern games on ultra. I'm using an SSD on USB as extra storage for games and it works fast as expected. I thought I'd be pissed about no USB C but the version of USB A is still plenty fast for SSD gaming. I am returning this one from Amazon because I bought one direct from Asus shortly after for much cheaper. I don't understand why they're so much higher on Amazon. Be patient and pay MSRP through Asus. The 6850 should be $799 and the 3080 should be $1099. Just create an Asus account and click notify on the product. They'll email you when in stock. Lastly, I saw complaints about the pcie X4 vs x8 speeds blah blah blah. Supposedly there's lag with keyboard and mouse. Total bs. I don't know what speeds they are but my FPS are typically around 90-100 on CoD and I have no lag on my keyboard and mouse. It plays like a desktop PC. I'm using all ROG gear for my setup down to the mousepad. I average around 60 FPS on CP2077 with the RT Ultra preset @ 1080p. That's hella good for a modular mobile gaming setup. ... show more

  • First order, DOA; second order, also DOA
Style: RX 6850M
When i first got the X13 Flow, the NVidia-based XG Mobile failed after a couple weeks. I had to send the laptop in with the XG Mobile because apparently they don't have any spare laptops at Asus repairs. The replacement XG Mobile failed after a few weeks but i didn't bother RMAing the replacement XG Mobile since i needed the laptop. I was delighted to see that the new AMD-based XG Mobile was available on amazon. First one was DOA -- the X13 would receive power from the XG Mobile, but armoury crate would never prompt to switch to the XG Mobile like it was supposed to, and no fan noise whatsoever from the device itself. Asus wanted me to RMA the unit, but i just returned to amazon (because I am not an idiot). The replacement i ordered which i just tried to plug in, is also DOA. I think they must wear those really big shoes in the ASUS QA department and use a lot of pancake makeup because that place is a total clown show. ... show more

  • The only thing holding this back is the proprietary connector (STO DOING THAT!!!)
Style: RTX 3080
The only thing keeping this from a perfect score is that it uses a connector only found on a select few ROG computers (luckily the ROG Ally is one of them.) This turns the ROG Ally into a tru Steam Deck killer and complete desktop replacement. Get rid of the stupid ASUS-only connector and you have a perfect eGPU and dock. ... show more

  • Doesn't really make a difference, very unstable.
Style: RTX 3080
I have the ROG Z-13 with the i7 and 3050, and the 3080 doesn't really do much for gaming. It does however de-stabilize your system and cause about 10x as many crashes as without. Really disappointed.

  • Very expensive
Style: RX 6850M
Why is this item so expensive here? Asus is selling the 6850xt mobile for 799, and it can be price matched at best buy. Picked it up from there. Update: Still being sold by amazon for 899. Wow.

  • will die just after warranty expires
Style: RTX 3080
If it doesn't fry your XG Mobile ports on your laptop/tablet before that, it will eventually just stop powering up. Sometimes it's the cable, sometimes not. Good luck. Never again, ASUS.
