Leaked Details of Asus ROG Ally 2: Featuring AMD Z2 Extreme CPU, 64GB RAM, and Unique Black Variant with Dedicated Xbox Button

Alright, so picture this: Microsoft’s mysterious project, Kennan or whatever, has finally crawled out of the shadows. Turns out, it’s coming to life as part of the ROG Ally 2 series. Spotted by some sleuths at 91mobiles and someone named Huang514613, this thing is real. Asus, it seems, is cooking up two versions. One’s dressed in black with an Xbox Button—like it’s trying to say, “Hey, I’m legit!” The other’s a white model, less flashy, aiming at the everyday crowd.

This whole Kennan thing isn’t exactly new. Been in the rumor mill for a bit. Folks were scratching their heads over specifics, but boom, leaks! There’s a US FCC listing making the rounds now, and it’s spilling the beans on the details. Guess what? The new models split like their ancestors. You’ve got the AMD’s Z1 with 4 CUs and the Z1 Extreme flexing with 12 CUs. Same $100 gap as before, too. Asus seems stuck in its x86 ways, faithful to tried-and-true compatibility.

Now, about that Xbox Button on the black version—it’s screaming Project Kennan louder than anyone at a rock concert. Even with the chaos, rumors say it’ll stick with Windows 11. Sure, not some whacked-out OS just for handhelds, but hey, progress? The button’s probably just a shortcut to the Game Bar like on a regular PC—because, why not? Maybe Microsoft will toss in extras, but who knows until they spill the official word.

Supposedly, under the hood, there’s an AMD Ryzen Z2 Extreme chip. Fancy, right? With eight cores (split between Zen 5 and Zen 5c) and 16 threads, it’s almost as beefy as that Ryzen AI 7 Pro 360. Plus, a Radeon 890M is lurking in there with 16 Compute Units, pulling a 15W-35W TDP. It chugs along with 64GB of LPDDR5x-8533 RAM, 2TB NVMe SSD, and 100W charging. And there’s a 7-inch LCD screen that’s 120 Hz and touchy—should be solid.

The white version? A mystery guest. Features a never-before-seen AMD APU—some secret stuff with the code “100-000001835.” This one’s got 16GB of RAM, another 7-inch 120 Hz screen, and chugs at 65W. Apparently, inside is the Aerith Plus chip, a potential cousin or update of AMD’s Von Gogh from the Steam Deck days.

The word is this APU, possibly from AMD’s Z2 lineup, bears the “Ryzen Z2 A” name. It’s got a quad-core setup and a TDP ranging from 6W-20W. Details about its heart and soul remain hazy, though. But Computex is on the horizon, and AMD/Asus will probably sing like canaries soon enough.

So there you have it. Keep your ears open for more breadcrumbs from Tom’s Hardware on Google News. Follow them, push that button. Or don’t—no pressure.
