Quick Answer

The ROG Ally X ships to Soshanguve, north of Pretoria, in 1–2 business days from Evetech's Johannesburg warehouse. Priced at approximately R16,999, it features an AMD Ryzen Z1 Extreme APU, 24 GB LPDDR5 RAM, and a 120 Hz 1080p display — delivering 60–80 fps on AAA titles at medium settings. It is the most powerful portable gaming PC currently available at Evetech, ideal for residents who want PC gaming without a fixed desk.

Why Soshanguve Residents Choose the Ally X

Soshanguve sits within the City of Tshwane metro, so Evetech's Johannesburg-based courier routes cover it in 1–2 business days. The device is a full Windows 11 PC in handheld form — all Steam, Epic, and Xbox Game Pass titles work without a TV or desktop setup. For Soshanguve residents in shared housing without a dedicated gaming corner, the Ally X fills that gap directly without requiring a desk, monitor, or additional peripherals to start gaming.

Key Specs and What They Mean in Practice

The 24 GB LPDDR5 RAM is shared between CPU and GPU — the iGPU takes up to 8 GB, leaving 16 GB for the OS and games. The 1 TB NVMe SSD delivers sub-15-second load times on most titles. The 80 Wh battery runs 2.5–3 hours on intensive gaming and up to 6 hours on video. The USB-C port charges, outputs video, and connects accessories simultaneously via a compatible hub (R500–R900 at Evetech).

Performance on Current Games at 1080p

Cyberpunk 2077 at 1080p medium (FSR Quality): 50–58 fps. Starfield at medium: 45–55 fps. Apex Legends at medium-high: 80–100 fps. These figures reflect the 15 W TDP setting recommended for mobile use. Dropping to 10 W for quieter play extends battery but reduces fps by roughly 20–30%. Switching to 25 W Turbo when plugged in recovers those fps and then some.

Ally X vs Buying a Budget Gaming Desktop

For R16,999 you could build a desktop with a discrete GPU — that setup would outperform the Ally X on raw fps. If the Soshanguve buyer has a desk, screen, and stable power supply, a desktop build makes more sense for performance. The Ally X wins when portability is the brief: commuting, campus, shared living, or travel gaming without equipment setup or teardown.

TIP

Ally X's Performance mode at 25 W TDP for desk gaming via dock and Silent mode at 10 W for bedroom sessions — the difference is 5–15 fps but also 10–12 dB of fan noise, making the trade-off worthwhile for late-night play.
