A:AnswerWhile there is no benchmarking of the Z1 chip yet vs the Z1 Extreme the integrated graphics has 4 RDNA3 cores vs 12 cores on the Extreme, for reference the Steam Deck has 8 RDNA2 cores. Expect a large performance drop off for this model, below that of both the standard Z1e RoG Ally and the Steam Deck.
With only $100 savings off a $700 device, I would not recommend getting this version, you are losing 66% of the GPU cores. Just wait and save the last $100.

A:Answerthis is what I found...The Asus ROG Ally gaming handheld is unique in that it has a UHS-II microSD card bus interface, allowing up to 312 MB/s file transfer...I've also seen other rates like 85mb/sec write speed...it depends on the quality of your sd card...also take into account that the rog ally can get pretty hot at times and will affect you sd read/write performance.
A:AnswerThe ASUS ROG Ally is primarily designed for gaming, and while it can handle school work, it might not be the most practical choice due to its design and features aimed at gamers.
