A shipping manifest of the ROG Ally seems to have been leaked while it was shipping between headquarters. From the looks of it, the Ally will be using the 7840U with Radeon 780M graphics, (Zen 4, RDNA 3) with 8 cores, 16 threads, and a base clock speed of 3.3 GHz, max of 5 GHz. The 780M iGPU is said to have performance similar to the GTX 1650. ASUS did mention the APU is custom though; it’s probably a lower-powered version to keep the battery life sane. According to a leaked image, it appears the custom Phoenix APU is codenamed “Z1 Extreme”.

Similar to the Deck, the leaked image mentions the Ally will have 16 GB LPDDR5 RAM. It will also support USH-II MicroSD cards, and come with a M.2 2230 512 GB PCIe Gen 4 drive. ASUS tweeted a few days ago that the Ally “is set to release worldwide (and it may be sooner than you expect).” VideoCardz suggests that the release could be later this quarter.

Rumors suggest the price of the handheld will be somewhere between $650-700, though don’t ask me from where I got those details – I’m just reading the article from Games Revealed.

The GPD Win Mini might have a few tricks up its own sleeves though, including an open standard for connecting eGPUs and a similar price point.
