AAnother one joining the Bazzite fray
AI'm basically the local bazzite saleswoman of my area now except well, it's free so y know lmao
VI mean to a certain degree you do have to "sell" it to newbies
AYeah
AI mean it more from the
AYou don't sell it for money part
ALmao
ABut they have used Linux before and were looking at their options before Windows 10 hits EOL so I suggested Bazzite and here we are lmao
VA friend of mine will probably be trying it out soon. I've been sending him screenshots of dozens of games running on it
Vmy old "gaming" desktop was saved with Bazzite. earned some upgrades ...hopefully it will be up and running for another 10 years 
Pyou could say they are... bazzussy-whipped
Pperfect time for it, windows users are very susceptible to screenshots of literally anything else right now
Vhe's messed around with linux before but he's unsure and didn't know anyone else that used linux. It was kinda funny when he found out I use it (I've known him since high school for years) it was like he found a long lost cousin or something 
Pall it took for one of my friends was telling them it runs GTA IV at double the FPS
Pi may be a charlatan but it worked
Vlol
Vtbh this is the first time I've been truly able to see what I cna do with linux. my 1050 non-ti wasn't cutting it. I got to upgrade to a 1650 gddr6 and bazzite has run everthing I've tried at 50 fps+
PGTA IV is the killer app
Pgame runs like doodoo ass under windows without installing a bunch of hacks on top
Pmy modest 3060/3600 build can max the game out at 4k with perfectly smooth frametime on linux
Pand on windows it struggles to keep pace
Pvery funny tbh, makes me wonder how well the game could have run at launch if it wasn't tied to a broken graphics API
Cof these handhelds which is the better option for a all-round device that can run steamos/bazzite
- GPD Win 4 (2023)
- ROG Ally X
- Ayaneo Air 1S
Hisn't ally x not even out yet
Mthe best option from a reliability standpoint is probably the legion go, or at least in how easy it was to get Linux working on it from the beginning
CI am not a fan of the size of it
Cif they made a mini version and removed the tablet stuff I would be a fan
Cyeah but I will think of something to replace it in july
Hi mean like nobody knows how well it will run linux lol
Cit's the same chipset
CI had the original Ally and barely any issues w it aside from short battery life
Csold it and bought the OLED SD
Chorrible decision
Cthe OLED SD is going back after < 1 day of ownership
CI cannot use it for literally more than 5 minutes
Hyeah but it's rarely the chipset/apu that's the pain point of support lol
CI mean it worked on the original model mostly fine
Cand the new model only improves battery capacity, analog sticks and RAM
Mwhen did you get an Ally
MBecause let me tell you it was not fine on Linux at launch lmao
Muntil someone tears one down or asus supplies exact specs with model names it’ll be hard to tell how they work without people with devices in hand first
Clike December
CI had it for a few months but the steam deck oled got released and I stupidly fell for the FOMO
Cgreat device, but I never want to ever come into contact with one again for sake of not having another migraine
Adoesnt ally have qc issue? and they still denied it to this day
Hthat's just ashush in general
Hlmao
Mthey didn’t deny it for RMAs but they were certainly not as forthcoming with info for the community as Lenovo
Cidk I'll take minor QC issues over the SD OLED anyday
Aaint ally straight up killing sd card? from what i heard atleast
