Question 1

What are the best settings for Resident Evil Requiem on ROG Ally X using Bazzite at 17W?

Accepted Answer

My 17W setup starts with 1920x1080 in borderless window, AMD FSR 3.1.5 set with a quality-focused upscaling mode, and FSR Frame Generation enabled. I keep V-Sync off, shadow quality around Normal, and ambient occlusion on Low. From there it’s about balancing: keep the image clean, don’t waste watts on settings that spike frame times.

Question 2

Can Resident Evil Requiem really run at 17 watts on the ROG Xbox Ally X?

Accepted Answer

Yes—this is the whole reason I made the video. I’m running it at 17W and still getting very playable performance with solid visuals, low temps, and minimal fan noise. It’s a legit “commute/plane/waiting room” power target that doesn’t feel like a compromise.

Question 3

How do you enable 35W Turbo mode on the Xbox Ally X in Bazzite?

Accepted Answer

I hit the Xbox button, go over to Performance, and switch it to Turbo. That’s where you unleash the full 35W behavior and the handheld immediately shifts into a higher performance profile. Just expect temps to climb because you’re actually letting the APU eat.

Question 4

Do I need Proton for Resident Evil Requiem on Bazzite?

Accepted Answer

You don’t have to force it, but you can if you want. I show how to do it in Steam: game settings cog → Properties → Compatibility → check the box and choose Proton (like Experimental). If you want the best community-reported combo, I always tell people to cross-check ProtonDB.

Question 5

What should I update before changing graphics settings on Bazzite?

Accepted Answer

Two things: Bazzite itself and the Steam client. In Bazzite, use the system update tool (Xbox button → RB to Updates → Check for updates → Apply), and reboot if it asks—especially for GPU driver changes. In Steam, go Settings → System → Check for updates and restart/apply if prompted.

Question 6

Should V-Sync be on or off for Resident Evil Requiem on the Ally X?

Accepted Answer

Off. If I see it enabled, I turn it off immediately, because I’d rather avoid added latency and let the handheld push frames cleanly—especially when you’re using frame generation. In my testing, it helped keep things feeling snappy without obvious tearing issues.

Question 7

What’s the real difference between 17W and 35W for gameplay on the Ally X?

Accepted Answer

It’s not subtle—it’s a big jump in how crisp and fast the game feels when you open it up to 35W. But the wild part is 17W is still genuinely enjoyable and battery-friendly, so you’re not forced into Turbo to have a good time. Bazzite makes that power/performance tuning super straightforward.
