Comment on My Experience With The ROG Ally Z1E (Windows/Bazzite)

I have a Legion Go, not a ROG Ally, so I may be wrong here. But Handheld Daemon (HHD) (included OOTB with handheld images) supports fine TDP/fan controls. You get to it by long-pressing the button that brings up the Quick Access Menu in big picture mode.

Hi, you’re absolutely correct and sorry for being unclear.
I mean precise TDP control (16W or 17W) and custom fan curves. I’ve used HHD, it’s also good. Most people simple switch between power saving / balanced / performance but wanted to go down further to extract a little more juice out of the device.
SimpleDeckyTDP is a bit tricky (open desktop mode - open terminal - paste command) to install but offers more customisation.

HHD allows those things though? Image
It even hooks into the Steam TDP controls: Image
(disclaimer: again, this is a legion go, i cannot confirm that for the rog ally)

It’s possible I have to RTFM.
I checked the Bazzite documentation for the Ally and it says SimpleDeckyTDP provides more features than HHD so I didn’t experiment with it at all. I prefer using the Decky plugin mainly because it fits with the Bazzite theme better :P
