I recently ordered my ROG Ally and am eagerly awaiting its delivery. In the meantime, I thought it would be beneficial to establish a dedicated club here, as I haven't come across any existing discussions on the ROG Ally.

Are there any other ROG Ally users in this forum? I would love to connect and share experiences.

It's running just fine for my needs. I bought the 2023 version, not the 2024 Ally X. Initially, I faced a few issues, but everything is smooth now.

Here are the modifications I've made:
1. Installed a 2280 SSD adapter.
2. Upgraded the original 512GB DRAM-less SSD to a 2TB KC3000 NVMe SSD.
3. Replaced the original backplate with a JSAUX Transparent Back Plate (to fit the upgraded SSD without modifying the original backplate).
4. Performed a clean installation of Windows instead of using ASUS Cloud Recovery.
5. Installed the 2024 Ally X drivers on my 2023 Ally.

None of these modifications void the warranty, and after doing step 4 and 5, everything is working perfectly.

Which model are you considering—the 2023 Ally or the 2024 Ally X?

Also, remember to register your Ally with your ASUS account after receiving it. This will extend the warranty by an additional year, giving you a total of 3 years instead of the original 2.

Steps 1 and 3 aren’t needed for Ally X.

It’s pretty much like reformatting, but I added an extra step by doing a secure erase on the SSD with Parted Magic. After that, I set up a USB installer for Windows 11 on my laptop to proceed with the installation.

It does
Where do you live bro? If you're nearby Subang Jaya, we can meet up and I can help you do it

Sure. Just let me know when you want to meet

Yep

Apologies for the earlier miscommunication. To ensure your Ally X functions correctly, the following two ASUS applications are still required:
1. MyASUS
2. Armory Crate SE

Additionally, it’s recommended to have a Microsoft account (e.g., hotmail.com, outlook.com, or live.com) ready.
While a local account can still be used, signing in with a Microsoft account is the optimal choice, as it allows you to lock the device to your account for enhanced security and accessibility.

Where you order your Ally X eh ?
Right now i find many shopee's one and all replied no ready stock beside Asus Brand Store - P.C.Image but the price kinda ouch.

Most no ready stock replying me saying need 15 days

I bought mine from DirectD (25.10 24 October - discount RM200 @ final RM3,899) and not sure when will receive, the expected delivery now showing 11-17 Nov 2024.
Seller says 15 days and promised 15 days will reach my hand :\

Ouch, the shopee status meaning to say "expected delivery date : 30 Oct" and the status showing "seller is preparing to ship your parcel" ? 

My accessories all coming to receive soon , lol .. i do hope i can receive the console before 11.11 (in case of courier's "traffic jam" that period.

GG... no contact seller?
Doesn't shopee will auto cancel if exceed the date?

Dunno my seller will FFK mine or not on the 15 days thing
Cause he says 15 days will reach my hand, hmm

It's been 6th day now with "Seller is preparing" but with courier tracking number

Ouch, how come this Ally X stock so hard to secure eh ?

Mind share which seller you getting from ?

Gonna check with my seller too to follow up with my current order status.

All my accessories already received, lolz...
Can play with accessories only T__T

Oh Teslatech, at first wanna buy from them in Shopee but after few times of same queries (i asked 4 times) and he keeps avoid me, end up i go for DirectD 

So how's ur current order

It appears that demand for the device has significantly outpaced supply, leading to global stock shortages.

If you're not in a hurry, you might consider canceling your current order and wait for the ROG Ally 2, which is expected to launch following the release of the Ryzen Z2 Extreme, projected for Q1 2025

Ouch, and what does the seller says?
Gonna follow up with my seller which the delivery date still within 11-17 Nov.

Placed mine 3.4k last night 9pm, Seller very confident has plenty stock incoming tomorrow 

Same seller ?
I'm going for E-nation as they say today SG stock will sending to them ,hmm

Seller says shipment delay
Hopefully don't exceed the date of auto cancel my order

Trying their best to chase Asus
But no expect date beside saying next week

My due date is 18th Nov must send out by seller (maybe need do extension 72 hours to prevent)
