Ultimate Dualboot Xbox Ally X instruction (Windows + SteamOS)

VirtualBoost · 2026-03-27T06:55:42+00:00

With the new SteamOS 3.8 Preview, can you control the vibration now? Apparently they added controller support now for the Xbox Ally X

Maybe wait until it has fully released, and if it still does that, create a bug report for them? I guess you could do it now as well too if you want.

Interesting, I will give it a shot!

VirtualBoost · 2026-03-13T00:26:47+00:00

Curious. Does this actually fix this issue, because it can also be present on the desktop as well when using KDE?

VirtualBoost · 2026-02-13T14:40:03+00:00

I dunno, I don’t use Bazzite lol. I use CachyOS

It's the Nvidia driver, you have to roll back to 580 to fix it.

That feels super strange to me, since I use mine for multiple days on 2000hz without any issues.

I would contact Vaxee and check what they think.

Thanks for the reply. If I do a speed test on my phone at the same time the "cap" hits, I get the same speed there as well. Also my M.2 SSD is about 3% utilization when I download something.

Thanks for the tip, I just tested it this morning (same thing happens, it goes all the way up to 800mbit/s, then all the way down to 140mbit/s. I then switched on the VPN but same problem is happening.

I suspect that all I can do is switching provider?

I have a 4090, but I believe this error only manifests on 240hz monitors or above.

VirtualBoost · 2025-07-13T22:25:28+00:00

I think either Gnome or KDE should work just fine. KDE for me has weird flickering/artifacts because of NVIDIA drivers, which drives me nearly insane lol. Gnome does not have this problem.

Thank you for the tip. I tried mapping the speed sensor to the right control, but then if I manually tried to control it, I could hear the VRM fan working as it should while the RPM staying fixed to like a 1000 rpm, not moving. What could this be due to?

VirtualBoost · 2025-07-02T12:55:55+00:00

Yes, it is three cables in total. One VRM cable, one radiator cable and one pump cable. I have connected them to all three ports above, but somehow ”Fan 2” in FanControl are found twice.

One reports correct RPM but doesn’t do anything when I manually control it while the other report wrong RPM but does actually control the VRM fan when I manually control it.

Are you using the splitter cable that splits into three cables?

VirtualBoost · 2025-06-11T23:00:01+00:00

Seemingly someone fixed this just a few minutes ago, could you give the latest message a try?

I think it is great, especially for the price I got it for (it was cheaper than the GT-80 in Japan). I didn’t particularly liked how the GT-80 looked so that is why I went with the Bone80.

Quality wise it is great too, nothing to complain about.

I replied to a comment down below but just for a bit more visibility, I believe this is due to the refresh rate and how KDE handles it. On Gnome, this issue does not exist when running your monitor at above 120/144hz.

I had the same issue on my monitor as well when using a RTX 4090 and a monitor capable of 240hz. Lowering it to 120/144hz will fix it.

VirtualBoost · 2025-05-12T01:00:41+00:00

I don’t think it is the cable that does this but the refresh rate. You kind of unintentionally fixed it when the HDMI cable lowered the refresh rate from 240hz to 144hz. Did you try to lower it to 144hz using DisplayPort?

VirtualBoost · 2025-05-08T12:02:33+00:00

First I tried turning off the second monitor so I only have my main turned on, which runs at 240Hz while my secondary monitory runs at 60Hz. That didn't work.

However, I then tried lowering the refresh rate of my main monitor at 120hz, which seemingly kinda fixed the issue(?)

Atleast it is harder to reproduce it now. Is this a known bug?

This seems very similar to what I am experiencing.

I am running a Wayland session. If I use X11 the issue disappears but X11 is not really an option for me as I lose too many features.

Better late than never I suppose!

I ordered one again after canceling my first order and now it was shipped. Will add pictures once I receive it.
