Asus ROG Ally or Steam Deck

[ㅤㅤㅤ]

@HenryLeeFN the steam deck is a good pc, idk what your point is

[HenryLeeFN]

It is not a pc

[HenryLeeFN]

It is a literal hand held device

[ㅤㅤㅤ]

@HenryLeeFN it is, it runs on steamOS which is based on arch linux, the steam deck has a full desktop outside the big picture mode of steam and you can switch between it anytime

[ㅤㅤㅤ]

@HenryLeeFN it's a handheld pc, like the rog ally except the specs, shell with buttons and OS are different, they are both still pcs

[Bread Traffic]

@HenryLeeFN note handheld pcs also have incredible price to performance, the rog ally has a better cpu and gpu than that mini pc, and the steam deck, while having a slightly worse cpu, only 4 cores (does not matter much for me), it has a better gpu than the mini pc

TLDR: both steam deck and rog ally are better than the mini pc for gaming

@HenryLeeFN you also might be confused du to the nintendo switch, which is very closed and limited yet the steam deck and rog ally allows you to do anything that a pc may do, including game dev (game builder garage does not count)

[HenryLeeFN]

Buddy it’s not a pc that doesn’t make it a pc there are controllers for it and you don’t use a keyboard and mouse so that doesn’t make it a pc

[HenryLeeFN]

Also the graphics are worse on a steam deck

[Bread Traffic]

@HenryLeeFN Just like the mini PC, I can connect a usb-c dock and get a hdmi output and support form wired and 2.4ghz keyboards and mice

both also have bluetooth

whats ur point

[Bread Traffic]

To disprove your point, the Steam Deck's GPU is more powerful than the mini pc

[ㅤㅤㅤ]

@HenryLeeFN you can literally connect a mouse and keyboard to it either via bluetooth or wire, also i found this on google!

and the graphics are great on deck, and even if they weren't it's still a pc

[HenryLeeFN]

Ok well it’s originally on a controller which in my standards makes it a console

[ㅤㅤㅤ]

@HenryLeeFN that makes no sense, none at all

[HenryLeeFN]

Wdym

[HenryLeeFN]

Is an Xbox a pc because I can plug in a keyboard and mouse or is it a console

[Bread Traffic]

@HenryLeeFN You are the one telling us a pc requires a keyboard and mouse

No, the Xbox OS is not open enough (Scratch doesn't vount)

[ㅤㅤㅤ]

@HenryLeeFN just because there it has a built in controller doesn't make it a console, like a mouse and keyboard don't turn everything into a pc, i can connect a mouse and keybord to a ps4 is the ps4 a pc now?

[ㅤㅤㅤ]

@HenryLeeFN it runs on windows and pretty much is a pc in a box but not completly, the steam deck doesn't have the features that make it a console

[HenryLeeFN]

What features make an Xbox a console
