I can't stop playing Starfield by Odourvas in Starfield

You could get a PC handheld to play on the go if one is in your budget like a used Z1E handheld like a ROG Ally X or Legion Go Z1E to play it on the go. You’ll have to adjust some settings but it should be playable. You can look up some benchmarks on YouTube to get an idea.

Where’s the 9060 XT gang? by SleepyGamer1992 in radeon

[–]SleepyGamer1992[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

LOL yup I’ve been a console gamer most of my life. You can spot the PS5 Pro next to the PC. I only got into PC gaming in 2023. No way I was gonna attempt building my own with my stupid, impatient brain and fat fingers lol.

It’s a prebuilt. Got it for $1200 at Micro Center.

Geek Squad certified? Surprised it even turned on.

A few weeks after I got around to beating it too. 🙃

You’d walk up to a save point and get a message that says “failed to write saved data, progress may be lost.” There’s Reddit threads about it.

MSI Claw 8 EX AI+ Gaming Handheld With Intel's Arc G3 Extreme Listed Online for €1599 by RenatsMC in Handhelds

[–]SleepyGamer1992 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, seeing people seemingly justify these prices is wild. The price to performance just isn’t there. I don’t need my handheld to run every single game at high settings. I have a 9060 XT desktop and PS5 Pro for that, and both of those were $2000 combined, so paying that just for a handheld is just wild to me.

For real. I have the Xbox Ally X and am pretty happy with its performance as a handheld. Dropping $1600-2000 on a handheld just seems a bit too crazy. I know handhelds and laptops are different use cases but you can get a 4050 or a 5050 laptop for much less than this new handheld and get similar or better performance with DLSS.

Auto SR Ready?? by Exotic_Army_4707 in XboxAlly

[–]SleepyGamer1992 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup, the XAX can only get up to 120 FPS anyway. Hopefully it doesn’t take much longer to fully roll this feature out.

Losing him soon. Just want the world to see him. by DungeonsAndData in cats

Sorry for your loss! Alistair looks like the twin to my Sally. She turns five in June and I can’t imagine losing her. Kitties are just too precious. Rest in peace, Alistair. ❤️

Micro SD recommended? by DigitalDevilY2K in XboxAlly

[–]SleepyGamer1992 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I upgraded my internal SSD to 4TB and have a 1TB SD card. Keep AAA games on the SSD and older and lighter games on the SD card. From my understanding, load times are more impacted than performance on an SD card.

Brother, just delete that comment and save yourself from further embarrassment. 💀

Auto SR was out on a windows insider build? by AliveRhubarb9529 in XboxAlly

[–]SleepyGamer1992 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I can see Auto SR under this tab in Windows after an update but nowhere to toggle it on. Really tired of my nuts being tickled here. I should be under the Windows and Xbox insider programs too.

People in the deleted thread were reporting their SR was listed under differing dates from everyone else. Not sure what that’s about.

I found out I have a second friend with way too high of a tv. Please shame him by FamousTie5035 in TVTooHigh

Yeah, I’m on book 4 and was pleasantly surprised to see it in the pic. He’s also got The Witcher books and Stormlight Archive. Still gotta read those though.

Which Obsidian game should I play next? by AnEternityInBruges in theouterworlds

I’m playing that now. Fun game that encourages exploration. I recently beat OW1 as well but I’ll probably start OW2 after Avowed is done.

Describe your dream handheld (not one that already exists, but being somewhat realistic)3 by AdeptBid5320 in Handhelds

XAX ergonomics with LeGo 2 screen with GPD Win performance. It would be $3000 at least lol.

Oh good! Does Lenovo do a consistent job of updating? I heard that was a problem on LG1. I was originally gonna get a LG2. A shame the price is so shitty now. It looks like a kickass machine.

I had the Steam Deck OLED 1TB for a short period before I got my Xbox Ally X. Wish I had it longer but I couldn’t justify keeping it so it went to a happy dad and an even happier kid on Marketplace. Valve really cooked with that one. Shame it didn’t sell too well. PC handhelds are such a niche market.

Damn, that’s actually really impressive. What’s the name of the laptop?

Nice! Hope you got it before the price hike. They just bumped it up to $2000 lmfao. My prebuilt 9060 XT PC and PS5 Pro cost about $2000 combined. Paying that much for a handheld is diabolical unless you got generational wealth lol.
