NOTE: If the ONEXGPU xconnect icon isn't there after updating the drivers, you need to install the ccc2_install file again to get AMD Settings App working again. First, you may have to uninstall the old AMD Software blue boardered AMD logo app (only uninstall this one, don’t touch the full red logo app) under “Apps - Installed Apps”. After a restart then install ccc2 app then restart again. Now you should be all set! You can right click on your desktop to open the AMD software or use the mini task bar AMD icon to open the “AMD Settings App” which will show up as adrenaine. 😊

WARNING # 1 for the Asus Rog Ally X, the current AMD 780m drivers are knocking out the bluetooth. UPDATE - I have a fix video released:
• Bluetooth and Audio Fix for AMD Handhelds,...
IMPORTANT Note: Use March 6th, 2025 for both drivers. Newer drivers do not work. You can use the same driver file for both device driver installs.
After the setup is complete, when you launch a game it will auto-detect the external GPU. Press the "Red Bolt" button for Turbo Mode to boost performance if needed. The other button next to Turbo cycles the RGB colors.

IMPORTANT - I highly recommend setting your Legion Go or Rog Ally X TDP to balanced (17-20W max) on the side bar menu when connected to the onexgpu. Having it higher can starve the onexgpu’s power and can cause disconnetion issues from your handheld. This can cause stuttering or crashes. You can also lower the OS setting in the same menu to efficiency or balance (CPU boost off for the Ally). Lowering your Legion go VRAM in the bios to 3GB or auto can also help. (You can do the same with the Rog Ally X)
If you’re still having disconnection issues you can also try disabling usb power saving mode in the windows settings. (Credit to FunnyGamer for this tip ✌🏻)
If you're using the Legion Go display and it's still flipping to portrait in game, try changing the display settings in the game to windowed or windowed borderless instead of fullscreen.
Having disconnection issues? The onex provided Thunderbolt4 cable is a major culprit for stability and connection issues. Upgrading the cable is a good idea.
Active vs. Passive Thunderbolt 4 cables:
Active cables include technology that help boost transfer rates over cable lengths greater than 0.8M. This allows you to maintain full transfer speeds across the entire length of the cable. If you purchase a passive cable length greater than 0.8M, you are only going to receiving 20 Gbps transfer speeds. https://www.razer.com/ca-en/gaming-pc...
