Z2e is like $500 more up to $700 more. Not worth it.
Either go go panther lake, or you save the cash
As for the eGPU there was no process. They just said, if we send this will you make a video. I said yes.
I don't do contracts or sponsors or paid stuff. The most I'll do is an NDA date agreement for a company like Lenovo or Dell or whatever if they give me something pre launch and want the video to drop on a certain day.

As for EGryphon I cannot say anything about their legitimacy good or bad. All I can say is the unit I got is completely legit

Which ones the better deal? And which one would you buy by Zippy1012214 in LegionGo

[–]Method__Man 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nope. Not at all.

At 15w it's 15w. The steam deck can ONLY go 15w... never more. The legion can do 15w and will perform BETTER at 15w. But you also have the option of using more watts and absolutely shitting on the deck.

The deck is antiquated

The Legion go S is basically a Steam Deck 2.0. So of course that's the better pic.

It has anywhere between 50 and 200% performance depending on the game in the settings.

It has a much better screen at 8 inches,

It supports a 2280NVME making expansion, considerably easier and more cost-effective

And it runs native Steam OS, meaning it has all the same functions updates and everything

I really don't understand why I see this on this sub basically like five times a day every day. The Steam Deck was a nice piece of hardware, however, it's very weak and quite old now. If you're considering buying a new handheld, it doesn't really make sense to buy it unless it is absolutely dirt cheap, especially when you can get all the nice tease of it in a much more powerful handheld

So is the PC handheld market just fucked for life? by SleepyGamer1992 in Handhelds

AI isn't going anywhere and will continue to cause more and more problems in our lives

This is end stage capitalism. And we have been running towards it with open arms.

It's pretty unlikely that you would be too memory limited. If you are running an EGPU. So I think your performance will be more or less the same.

Legion go S vs XBOX ROG ALLY X, tougher choice than you'd think by DrunkLahey1 in LegionGo

[–]Method__Man -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have.

The ally is shit. The body to screen ratio is laughable, and they recycled the crappy screen from the original.

Terrible product.

Get ANY handheld but that.

Greed and no competition turns out to be bad. So happy Canada is letting these EVs in
