ROG Ally 32GB 7500MHz RAM Upgrade

[@williamashcroft1512]

Got mine done from slick as well, 2 week wait time. I play CoD mw3 mostly on the device. Had him update my bios to 336. I did use smokeless and increased the speed to 7500mhz, highly recommend doing the 32gb upgrade. Ditching my whole PC now as i have an "On the go" desktop. I did upgrade the battery myself as slick has a video on how to do it and it was pretty easy. I set my Video Ram to 8gb as 2ell. So Cod i went from 80 fps on a 3840x1080 Samsung external monitor to 115 close to 120 fps that is on low graphic settings as i always want high fps in Cod. Then i hooked up the xg mobile 6850xt and get around 180fps in cod. My screen is 144hz so i guess the extra fps wont mean much. The fps gain from the new ram can be anywhere from 10fps increase to 40fps increase. I now have enough ram though to do so much. Rog should have done 32gb models. Ill try tarkov and let you guys know what my fps is with and without the xg mobile. If people want to make a request on a game they play ill try and get it and show it to you. All i can say is 32gb is well worth it. I have 3 monitors hooked up to the rog ally with the xg mobile. Needed to use an adapter that converts the dp on the xg mobile and splits it into an hdmi and another dp. Thank you again Slick really appreciate the work

[@RorschDG-2]

How much was it all said and done? I'm waiting to get my machine back from Asus due to the SD Card failure and am curious about it.

[@williamashcroft1512]

@@RorschDG-2 $315 and i paid shipping around $20 for extra insurance for the ram upgrade. I now use this device as my desktop. So the only games i had a hiccup on was tarkov and star citizen and thats with my eGPU connected. Every other game i played "Lethal company, Minecraft, World of warcraft, LoL, MW3, Halo, 7 days, etc are getting easily 100+fps with eGPU and an external 3840x1080 monitor. If i just did a lower res screen i probably be able to do tarkov no prob, star citizen is a beast of its own tho, i get around 24-30fps in lorville and 45-55fps in space. But it does stutter alot on star citizen, guessing due to low cache on cpu

Slick upgraded my ROG Ally to the 32GB 7500Mhz ram and hoo boy what a performance improvement. You will have to use smokeless to set the speed to 7500Mhz but once you do... its like a whole other machine. in Doom Eternal I went from 68Fps to 91FPS on BIOS 335. Diablo IV I went from 56 on medium settings high textures in Kyovashad to 72FPS. Its a massive improvement. Also being able to just set it to 8GB on the Vram and never worry or touch it is fantastic. Highly recommend this mod and Slick is awesome! Turn around time was about 2 weeks so super fast as well.

I managed to modify it to 32GB. I'll tell you what disadvantages I met: the CH341A programmer + 1.8V adapter was ordered in China, the BIOS flash drive was not readable, I noticed that the programmer has the name of the CH341B chip, they say that this is an improved version. I had to contact a familiar wizard to flash the BIOS for $ 4. At the very least, I ORDERED an LPDDR5 stencil in case it doesn't solder. When the chip was soldered the first time it did not work, I had to roll the lead-containing solder from the second attempt and it worked.

Awesome work! But no new OEM bios updates kinda hurts. They can come with some optimizations and performance improvements. I wish OEMs would take ram upgrades into consideration in their bios so customers don't have to even worry about the bios. Very cool work

[@SlickBuysModsandRepairs]

I agree. Though I’d say most performance gains, in terms of bios optimizations, are tapped out. It would be cool if Asus officially recognized 32GB memory modules without the need of having to reflash the bios.

[@metathanatos1]

for people ho havent bought this yet it would be much better if they just outright offer a new version of rog ally with installed 32gb ram and allocate up to 12vram.

[@Pngwolffman]

I think it might be possible to get the ROG team to include it in their bios if you can make a big enough splash and get enough people to @ them about including it in their BIOS. A small chance I know but it is a possibility. @@SlickBuysModsandRepairs

[@Psychx_]

@@metathanatos1 Static VRAM allocation on AMD iGPUs isn't beneficial, since the system can dynamically assign more RAM to the iGPU - it will also return that memory back to the OS, when it's not needed anymore. With an arbitrary amount of statically reserved memory, it can't be used by the OS for anything else, so the option in the UEFI functionally only sets a minimum amount of memory that should be exclusively available to the iGPU at all times.

@@kimalibennett9468 It's not about "a lot of people being _content_ ". It's about the device not being able to perform adequately without stutters, texture thrashing, or even being able to load the game in the first place without issues.

[@corndog9482]

@@kimalibennett9468 "I just feel like it IS about the majority." "The majority" is not the same thing as "a lot of people" as you claimed in your previous comment, though. Also, your claim that "the majority" doesn't care about the 16gb is misleading, as the majority doesn't understand why this isn't good. This video proves how starved the system is. "Games currently aren't developed with lower power devices/efficiency in mind" It's not that. It's that games are moving forward and in doing so are driving up requirements. This makes moving away from 16gb of RAM in a shared environment a necessity. "I just can't help but feel a sense of entitlement or ALWAYS looking towards the future instead of appreciating what we do have to choose from." I'm not even talking about the future. I'm talking about now. We are *currently* already seeing that it's not enough for even a 1080p native display. Going into settings for every individual modern game to tweak it for maximum performance is not an ideal practice, but is required for many games, and increasingly so. I'd understand a little more for a system like the steam deck, where it feels and is treated more like a console, but on a full-fledged windows device with the increased overhead? Unacceptable. "Some of the testimonials of performance improvements are saying going from 50-60 fps to 80 or more and from my direct experience, while that is a WELCOME improvement, it wouldn't prompt me to feel played or duped currently" First of all, going from 50 fps - 60 fps to 80 fps or more is a _huge_ improvement in fluidity and massive improvement in the experience. Way more so than going from 80 to 100. Though having 32gb of shared memory would give the Ally meaningful gains in frames pretty much across the board, that's even more important is the hitching, stuttering, frame pacing, texture thrashing, and even being able to load the game in the first place without having to tinker with and adjust VRAM allocation settings just to get it to run the way it should. I feel like you don't fully comprehend the implications how negatively this is currently affecting our experience, and especially increasingly as we move forward. 32GB should really be the minimum standard on a windows gaming device like this, and companies like Ayaneo, GPD, and several others are doing it right. Not surprising that the large corporations are trying to pull these shenanigans.

I do agree with that for sure. The tech they have can't be shown all at once. The money needs to be spent from the sheep. Yes, I'm one, but I do know about the New World Order.

For complete improvement, there is not enough battery with increased WHrs and cpu boost ,and change the thermal paste

The reader doesn't need to be moved since that wasn't the issue the controller to the reader is on the other side of the board that had weak solder joints and would break over time from thermal stress of hot and cold.

@@SlickBuysModsandRepairs Would this upgrade mean the bios updates would not work and it would have to be sent to someone to do a new flash of the bios every time there's a major bios update worth updating to? Also --- amazing work. Really fun to see it done so beautifully.

[@sinamomayezi7631]

Hi, is whether the same code or path can also be used for new version Bios 337? And My next question is if the BIOS update happens by mistake in the future, there is a solution to update the BIOS modded code without removing the BIOS chip from the main board. Did you transfer it with a USB cable?

[@SlickBuysModsandRepairs]

Yes, it can be used. You don't need to desolder the chip from the board to reflash it with a USB programmer..

Hi, I tried to flash the bios chip without desoldering. I did it in the bios and menu Ez Flash V3 with two different sufixes (bin and 337) but every time I get an error. select file is not a uefi bios. but when I do with original file there is no problem and these errors are not shown. My question: I absolutely have to de-solder the bios chip? or my file is not prepared properly. Can you please send me the bios file for version 337? I am very grateful and if necessary tell me how I can practically thank you.?

This is definitely an impressive work but probably unnecessary. Any Asus update would override the bios rendering the memory invalid.
