Yes, it’s nice, but can you make a Windows that’s designed for handhelds and not full of shit? Thanks.
I literally spent an hour decluttering the OS when I bought the machine with Win10Privacy. Why does my game console have Teams? Why does my enterprise computer have the Xbox app?
If it wasn’t for the ASUS tools that you need to manage the hardware effectively, I would have wiped it and put Tiny11 on there.
ChimaeraOS is a fork of SteamOS designed for other handhelds, and it needs some funky firmware flashing for it to work properly. For the ROG, I think I need to do some weird shit to get Bluetooth and sound working.
When the project reaches maturity, which it will, I have total faith it’ll be a better platform for gaming on the handheld given the optimizations to the Zen chips. All of the handhelds are running the same internals, more or less, in terms of the Zen 1/Extreme processors. Steam has been optimizing a lot for the Deck and every update improves performance in a meaningful way. It remains to be seen if MS will customize a Windows version for handhelds. If they don’t significantly improve the experience, all of us ROG-gers and Legionnaires are going to be eventually running Linux because it’ll just be better on the hardware.

there’s a way to put SteamOS on the Asus no?
Sort of.
