Asus ROG Xbox Ally Will be Powered By AMD Ryzen

Both versions of the device have a 7-inch screen that's really clear (1080p) and super smooth (120Hz). This means games and videos will look great and play without choppiness. They also have a feature called VRR, which helps keep the picture smooth even when the game's frame rate changes.
