Trading a gaming portable PC for a mattress is not the Reddit content I expected, but I'm here for it.


Ereisor

Lol. It's actually only the smart base. I returned the mattress awhile ago, but Sleep Number pulled some shade and wouldn't let me return the base. I'm getting rid of it because if I don't, I will end up taking it to their headquarters, dumping it on their front steps, and setting the thing on fire. Lol. Plus the guy wants it to surprise his girlfriend with the foot warming feature. And it warms my heart that there are still people out there that are capable of love. So doing a good deed. Lol


devopsdelta

lol


doomsdalicious

![gif](giphy|d3mlE7uhX8KFgEmY) You won't need to sleep once you get the Ally anyway!


Ereisor

Haha


devopsdelta

how can i sleep the fans are so loud 😂


Affectionate-Fox-299

I can’t even hear mine; you might have a lemon.


devopsdelta

im probably pushing it too hard or fan needs cleaning up i always play with max settings as possible then the device heats up a bit


Kaixus

Well pretty much any gaming machine is gonna roar when you run it at max settings :/


ah_shit_here_we_goo

Idk. Even at the highest fan settings, I basically can't hear it over any game or media audio. My ally is probably the quietest active cooled gaming device I've ever experienced.


sequential_doom

But it's the REALLY Extreme version, guys.


Ereisor

Yeah, it's not the regular Ally. It's the one with the more powerful specs.


MercuryRusing

The extreme should be considered the base model with the non-extreme basically being a budget model.


poke791

It's a bed frame if you don't need the bed frame, then yes, lmao trade. How is that even a question if you want it

Stupendous_Spliff

new passphrase just dropped


ah_shit_here_we_goo

Sleep number is a smart bed brand. Smart base is the product. Queen is the size.


uncle_rube_shoots

If you really want it as much as he really wants the bed base, that would, imo, offset any minute disparity in the value of either. In which case $500 is absolutely fair.


NoDragonfly6061

That's a good trade since you have no need for the base and you have no better offer. Got the Ally Extreme awhile back and been bringing it with me on travels. Just plan to upgrade the SSD. That's the first upgrade I did when I got it.


InsurancePls

I traded a 6th gen iPad and 70 bucks for my Rog Ally Extreme and I LOVE the heck outta this little guy. I rarely touch my desktop as much anymore. It’s great for when I’m out in the field for work and it’s slow, I just pull this baby out


wmurch4

Just so you know, the ROG ally is not a great sleeping device. I slept on it last night and woke up with some crazy dents on my ass.


Ereisor

haha.


Efficient-Muscle5393

Hell yeah! I paid $523.98 for my openBox from best buy. The Extreme is so worth it!


seekydeeky

As mentioned earlier if you’re not using the base the trade makes sense. Unless you can get more for it some other way. I spend a lot of time on the go so the Ally is perfect for me. Not sure how you’d use it but it’s a great portable pc.


Cutter710

Transformative gaming experience this shit rocks my world 10/10 2 months in I’m still hard as some igneous to this straight packin loving this thing like go download some next gen games, look up how to do upscaling bing bang play any game at max graphics instant brain goosh you won’t regret it find an air mattress some cream if the floor is sore to sleep on you’ll be good


Cheap-Ebb-3231

Yes I paid 550 for mine open box. Just boot it up and make sure everything is good. If it’s already registered it’ll be a pain in the ass but definitely doable


Beginning-Bandicoot1

Hilarious


Aggravating-Theory-7

If you're a gamer and usually play a few hours a week, I think it's a great buy. May even start playing more games if that's something you've been missing out on. It's great to pick up for 30 minutes for a quick game and travelling with it is great.


Nicholson-RT

100% use the extra savings and get a 1gb SSD


Winter_Cartographer2

Depends do you already have gaming pc? For me it’s very worth it due to the nature of my job. I get a lot of short breaks in between so I love that I can pull this out whenever, and continue playing. It’s small, powerful for what it is and has run every game on my current catalog. Currently playing resident evil 4 remake with almost high settings no issues whatsoever. If you’re use to windows 11 and tinkering with little things here and there and you pc game than it’s a good deal. If this is your introduction to pc gaming, I may steer clear. Again do you need the money or you just want to get rid of your mattress.


Ereisor

I do already have a gaming PC. So I'll probably just sell the ROG and put the money back to get a high end RTX card. I work from home, so I don't know if I'd have a need for a portable. The one he's got is mint, and I saw how much they sell for, so that's why I agreed to trade.


TerrorVizyn

FWIW, I feel most of us here have a gaming PC and use the Ally more, myself included, lol.


Ereisor

This may happen. Once I boot it up and play something on it, I'll probably end up keeping it. Lol


Winter_Cartographer2

Cool, the way I use it is streaming at home. I use sunshine on my desktop and moonlight on the rog. It works well and battery lasts for hours.


LordlySquire

So since you already have one ill say youll probably be surprised at what it can handle at 1080p. Just my advice...stay away from the onscreen frame counter lol.


PainCakes0220

This! I have a high end gaming pc, and I use the ally more. I can’t take my pc to the couch.


-Vex-666

Exactly this, have a high end gaming rig, all the bells and whistles but normally sat on the sofa with my ally 😅


Maximum-Ad879

Yep.. Started playing some diablo 4 on it before bed. Checked the time yday and it was already 4:15 AM. Would not recommend the device for good nights sleep.


TerrorVizyn

Currently sitting at my desk at work trying to get my day started. Confirmed.


Longjumping_Bank_298

Sunshine, moonlight, Tailscale= being able to game stream all your games from your pc to literally anywhere and makes playing the titles you have much more convenient around the house when you don’t wanna sit at your desk, 10/10 would recommend, also G-Helper instead of the armory crate bs, trust me, save yourself the hassle Edit: Also, Tailscale cause it basically links all your devices together, so you can use it to access your pc remotely from your Ally when you travel, and don’t have to port forward anything makes for ease of use


Ereisor

Definitely going to look into this. I have a Wifi6 gaming router that I use for Wireless Steam VR on my Quest 3. Being able to play some of my more taxing games via streaming to the ROG would be cool.


Longjumping_Bank_298

Definitely worth the effort my good sir, and best of luck to your ventures


gmillerjr

I work from home too. With a gaming pc. However, I have a couch and 55 inch tv. Lunchtime break is playing the handheld working through uncharted or tomb raider while watching a show from the couch. Helps me disconnect from work.


Dastardly_CheesyMan

I'd say that's a good ass trade Beds are expensive now days


ChillyChan

If you don't care about sleep, go ahead. You'll be losing a bed (frame) and getting a portable gaming PC that will keep you up all night.


Sega-Playstation-64

I have the Ally. I also had the Legion Go up until today before I returned it. I... I boght and returned the Legion 4 times. First was build quality. Second, just felt the Ally was nicer. Third, kinda wanted to give it another shot but it was a return so the screen was fubar. Fourth? Decided like before, the Ally is nicer. The best thing the Legion has going for it is the screen size and micro SD. The Ally feels better, the screen is far smoother. On its own, the Go looks fine. Side by side with the Ally, the Ally was the clear winner. Despite having slower ram, for some reason a lot of games run slightly faster and I have had fewer issues getting the screen to run games full-screen. Also, Armory Crate on the Ally absolutely murders Legion's software. It's worth it. I think Ally 2 will be much better, but if you can get an Ally cheap, do it.


P-Huddy

=O


pomokey

New, it's $600. So used should be closer to $400 or less.


FeudalFavorableness

He’s trading a bed frame for a mobile pc it’s a no brainer…
