As if the new TUF Gaming laptops aren’t enough, ASUS has also extended the Ryzen + NVIDIA formula to its Zephyrus gaming laptop – welcome the Zephyrus G.
The ROG Zephyrus G is aimed at both creatives and gamers who want a laptop that’s slim and lightweight, but at the same time, still packs the performance needed to handle just about anything they’ll throw at it.
It uses a splash-pattern design and a trapezoid cut lid, combined with a unique heat pipe design that keeps the temperature for its chipset power components below 80°C. This, in turn improves thermal performance, reliability, and the laptop’s lifespan.
The desktop-inspired keyboard uses a single color backlight (White), and features N-Key Rollover, and Overstroke Technology for fast and precise keypresses.
The Zephyrus G features a 15.6-inch IPS display that gives it an 81% screen-to-body ratio. Under the hood is a Ryzen 7 3750H backed by up to 24GB of DDR4 2666MHz RAM and an NVIDIA RTX 2060 Max-Q. For storage, you can get up to a 512GB SSD.
