Hey Phawx, if you have the chance, I'd love to know whether you can get Trails of Cold Steel to run at 60 FPS on this at portable settings.
WOW! SMG 2 is near perfect on this thing. Maybe Mario Strikers on the go is doable now!
Holy moly
it actually runs SoTC at fullspeed. At the original PS2 res, mind you, but still, that's impressive.
Tekken 7!
Much appreciated Phawx, but could you try a few things?
-Can the resolution be lowered down further?
-Can the resolution scaling be turned down further to get better FPS?
-Can you enable dynamic resolution? That can help performance a lot.
Still very impressive and I think with some tweaking it can hit 60 FPS constantly no problem. Hope this means SFV can do it too! Definitely buying one of these now.
Hot damn. I legitimately didn't expect this to be able to handle PS2 titles so smoothly due to some of the roadblocks with emulation on that front. Guess I'll be shelling out however much it takes to get me one of these.Holy moly

The SOTC video pretty much sold me on the device as well, that was pretty darn good.Hot damn.

Phawx fumbling around in Dark Souls was kinda adorable.
Incredible that it runs at 30fps. Thanks a bunch man.
Quick question for those of you with the original GPD Win.
Has anybody personally tried .hack GU HD on it? I've been playing Valkyria Chronicles the last few days (runs great!) and was wondering how that game'd fair.

I dunno for sure but if I'm reading what GPD's Chinese rep is saying right it looks like they might be offering options with various amounts of storage.
I get around 25 FPS on the GPD Win at 720p. Do note that there's practically no video options besides resolution and fullscreen/window/borderless.Hey peeps, more annoying questions. Has anyone in here tried out Tokyo Xanadu EX+ on the GPD Win? I know the thing runs the Cold Steel games fine, and Xanadu was built on a modified ver of the same engine.
I don't wanna drop the cash until I know for sure, though.

Last I checked the only resolution I could select was 720p.Any resolution below 720p, or is that the lowest?
Also cheers for answering!
Half speed. He has the fourth "aggressive" speed hack enabled which under clocks the CPU and more importantly turns on VU cycle stealing. This is effectively a frame skip option when used with SOTC so even if the emulator reports 60fps its actually rendering half that or less depending on the load.
Would be nice to see if some of the lesser CPU intensive games such as Final Fantasy XII can run full speed with only the not so intrusive "recommended" speed hacks.
And the stable 1.4 version of PCSX2 is very outdated now, everyone should be using a 1.5 dev build. https://buildbot.orphis.net/pcsx2/
Steam inhome streaming/Moonlight. :)Nah, unfortunately that isn't legit at all. All the tests that have been done so far by Phawx on the Win 2 and others who have similar hardware have only managed around 10fps, even with the latest version of Cemu. It's just a clickbait video. The only way anyone is getting decent performanc for BoTW on handheld hardware right now is using a Switch.
Great work on the keyboard video Phawx! If you're looking for suggestions on future game tests, I think it would be interesting to see how mouse and keyboard games work. Older games like Deus Ex and FEAR that didn't have gamepad support. Are these playable at all on this?
Normally I use Antimicro for these set ups. But I'm sure there are steam configs already created for 360pads.

The win 1 is already enough for them, think that Trails of cold steel has win 1 hardware as official minimum requirements and even "handheld" settings.I really only want this for visual novels and jrpgs like trails in the sky.
I doubt you would have the time but I am hyper curious about playing Destiny 2 in a hand held format without streaming from a home network source.
I think that was pretty much everything that was said in that impromptu Q&A.He cannot promise anything but instead of using 2x 5000mah batteries they are looking to see if they can find a supplier of 5400mah batteries.
He seemed to have implied they had some battery issues with the ones they've used so far but I'm not positive on that part.
Already been mentioned before but heat transferred to the battery from the motherboard is almost nonexistent this time around which should eliminate the issues people had with batteries.
He averaged 3 hours of battery life gaming but got 5 hours for some games (didn't specify).
At max when pushing the system to the limit the entire device will be consuming a total 18 watts.
They are sticking to 128gb of storage because the sd card reader in the Win2 will be much faster and more suitable for storing games on along with using usb drives, 256gb 2242 drives are more expensive, some drives with higher capacity have reliability issues & this device occupies a niche market and sales will not huge so they don't see the need to offer such an option.
Also seems to imply they don't want to offer multiple storage options because that increases difficulty of dealing with inventory for such a small market.
Seems to imply the usb port can put out a lot more power to run things like external ssd's compared to the Win.
Still $599 for crowdfunding.
Compared price to that of a Xiaomi laptop with 4gb of ram and an 256gb ssd and he believes the price to be reasonable for what the device is.
Says 8gb of ram is the max (not sure if simply max of what GPD is offering or if there is no lpddr3 chips of the right type that offer higher capacity on the market).
Mentions different colors (not sure if referring to just the plastic lid or more) but again says offering many different options puts a strain on manufacturing and managing inventory.
Wade's of the opinion the current color scheme looks better in person than through pictures.
They tried a keyboard backlight but they gave up because they were unable to get even distribution of light across the entire keyboard.
Phones with keyboards use led lighting along the side for illumination but the Win2's keyboard is too wide for that and there's not enough space to do the type of backlighting thats found in normal sized keyboards.
Wade ran Witcher 3 with all settings at default at 15 fps.
IGG backers will be the second batch of devices.
The first will go to backers of the JD campaign who are effectively beta testers.
The second batch will have better quality control.
Second batch to IGG backers will be completed in April & shipped to backers in May.
Wade does not see the point in easily removed batteries to swap on the go as he feels it is currently easy enough to remove currently to replace if needed & USB-PD charging makes swapping batteries unneeded.
