"I've been using the Blu-ray movie player in my PlayStation 3 game console for about a year now and have been invariably thrilled with both the quality of Blu-ray discs and the ability of the device to sharpen the image on regular DVD's. The HD-DVD players were equally adept, technically speaking, but they do have a couple of drawbacks..."
It's almost time for the ASUS ROG Ally X to be revealed, and these leaked renders already provide a look at the device and its specs.
Is it running the same Windows OS? Because that is the biggest issue with the current Ally.
MSI is proud to announce that its gaming handheld, Claw, has achieved a significant performance increase of up to 30% through a new BIOS and MSI Center M update. Furthermore, the new BIOS and MSI Center M enable Claw to smoothly play all of the top 100 po
is this the one with the switch2 chip inside.?
this is Intels first try at the format
probs not though, as it's $799. so not good for switch actually
Well thats nice considering Ive heard it consistently performs worse when it really shouldn't.
Now if only Lenovo would do the same for the legion go
Yet another leak for the ASUS ROG Ally X points towards as much as 8 hours of battery, but how does that compare to the competition?
Honestly, I really like this updated version. But it doesn't solve the biggest flaw that the original had for me: the Z1 Extreme APU. Yes, it's an extremely powerful part, but it is not part of AMD's Adrenalin driver update program, so it's dependent on Asus for driver updates. And unfortunately, Asus doesn't have a stellar record of support for their devices.
Up to 8 hours basically just means the least demanding games. AAA gaming at highest wattage would probably be about 2-3 hours which is good compared to just about 1 hour with the current ally. The OLED Deck can do about 2-3hrs.
With much less performance so that makes sense.
The Steamdeck shines at the lower TDP end but gets absolutely mopped at the high end.
Similar longevity with much better performance is a big win for the Ally X
They used to be the best when it comes to motherboards, now I will never buy anything from them again.
Nope. The only improvements I want to hear is better customer support. Otherwise, I can't be bothered.
Red Ring a HD-DVD player.
i approve this even though it is HDDVD Player. There has been so many news on here regarding HDDVD and Bluray. So why not a review on one of the players?
dont play Blu-Ray's?
ROUND PEG also approved the controversial story releated to UT3 MODs as well
even the DECEPTIVE story of HD DVD beating BD when AMAZON rakings itself say 2:1 for BD
PEOPLE report both TNS and ROUND PEG
In my opinion, I think most of HD DVD's sales come from people who don't know much about HD formats and see the words HD and DVD and assume it's the successor. Plus the price doesn't hurt either. The problem is, most people who are willing to spend 1000+ dollars on an HDTV does their research before spending more money on a player. And these people usually come across the whole "blu ray is winning by..alot" articles.
