ROG has kicked off CES 2020 with the announcement of the World’s Most Powerful 14-inch Gaming Notebook: the Asus ROG Zephyrus G14.Â
ROG’s newest gaming notebook aims to be a compact and slim gaming device that packs in both a Ryzen 4000 CPU and an Nvidia RTX2060. Packed into a slim-and-light 17.9mm thick and 1.6kg chassis, ROG isn’t skimping on portability or power.
The ROG Zephyrus G14 will also benefit from the addition of a high-refresh rate display with a 120Hz panel for faster gaming.
“While the move to 300 Hz is especially important for pros, everyone can benefit from life beyond the 60 Hz,” writes Republic of Gamers. “That’s why ROG was adamant about putting a high-refresh option in our new Zephyrus G14. No existing 14-inch displays were up to the task, so ROG worked closely with panel providers to create one specifically for the machine.” All panels will be 4K.
The Zephyrus G14 will also benefit from the addition of ROG’s newest AniMe Matrix LED personalization, an optional, precision-cut LED on the lid lets users show custom graphics, animations and other effects.
