We can no longer talk about the inability to use high-end GPUs in Ryzen gaming laptops. On the 12th (local time) Asus unveiled the Zephyrus Duo 15 SE with AMD Ryzen 5900HX and GeForce RTX 3080.
The Zephyrus Duo 15 SE weighs 2.4kg and uses magnesium aluminide, has a battery capacity of 90Wh, and as the name suggests, it has a dual screen.
The main display is 15.6 inches, and you can choose a 300Hz 1,080p or 120Hz 4K UHD IPS panel. The secondary display measures 14.1 inches, with a resolution of 3840×1100 or 1920×550. Both displays support touch. As in previous versions of the secondary display, it rises a little, creating a direct airflow through the chassis and components to aid in cooling. Asus said that this version has redesigned the fan blade to further improve the cooling performance. The blades are actually shaped to reduce turbulence and fan noise, improving open flow by 13%.
Overall, the ROG Zephyrus Duo 15 SE is a high-end laptop that AMD has been pursuing since introducing the Ryzen mobile brand. It also means that the price isn’t cheap, as Asus said it takes advance reservations for $2,900 in North America.
ROG Strix and ROG Strix SCAR Series
If you think the ROG Zephyrus Duo is going to be overkill or uncomfortable, you can choose one of Asus’ four new products. ROG Strix 15, ROG Strix 17, ROG Strix SCAR 15 and ROG Strix SCAR 17.
Among them, the SCAR model is a’step up’ model, both weighing 2.26kg and equipped with an optical mechanical keyboard. Both models have a 165HZ 2560×1440 option, while the SCAR 17 also has a 360Hz 1,080p panel option. All are’IPS level’, meaning a wide viewing angle notebook that does not use Sharp’s IPS brand.
ROG Strix SCAR laptops are equipped with an 8-core Ryzen 7 5800H or 8-core Ryzen 9 5900HX CPU, and you can choose between GeForce RTX 3070 or GeForce GTX 3080. A 240W charger is used, but low-speed charging is possible with a general USB-C charger. It has one slot supporting up to 64GB DDR4/3200 and two M.2 storage slots.
Pricing is not yet known, and is expected to ship within 2-3 months.
The ROG Strix G17 and G15 are the SCAR versions without an optical mechanical keyboard or 360Hz display. You can choose between 2560×1440 at 165Hz or 1,080p at 300HZ. Memory is supported up to 64GB with two memory slots, and two M.2 slots are provided.
CPU options are Ryzen 7 4800H, Ryzen 5 5600H, Ryzen 7 5800H, and Ryzen 9 5900HX. The GPU is a bit limited, so you can choose the GeForce RTX 3070 with 8GB of RAM, or the GeForce RTX 3060 with 6GB of RAM.
The ROG Strix G17 is pre-booked for $1,800, while the G15 is yet to be priced or released. editor@itworld.co.kr
