Let’s start off with the ROG Zephyrus G laptop. Announced back in April this year, the GA502 gaming laptop is the first in the Zephyrus lineup to be equipped with AMD’s 12nm Ryzen 7-3750H CPU, along with Nvidia’s Turing-powered GeForce GTX1660 Ti Max-Q notebook GPU.
The GTX1660 Ti on the Zephyrus GA502 is clocked up to 1335MHz at 60W complete with ROG Boost technology. This enables consistent frame rates and smoothness to be displayed optimally on the 15.6-inch IPS display with 120Hz refresh rate. Powering the laptop is none other than AMD’s Ryzen 7 APU with quad cores and eight threads, promising fluid performance while stretching battery life up to seven hours.
In terms of memory, the Zephyrus GA502 includes 8GB of DDR4 RAM (expandable up to 32GB) and an NVME PCIe SSD with a capacity of up to 512GB.
Connectivity wise, the GA502 laptop supports HDMI 2.0b and DisplayPort over USB-C and HDMI. This allows users to connect to multiple monitors – 4K UHD monitors and even large screen TVs or projectors. There is also an RJ45 LAN port, USB-C port with support for DisplayPort 1.4, as well as three USB 3.1 Type-A ports for further connectivity.
By combining AMD’s Ryzen CPU and Nvidia’s GeForce GPUs, ASUS has managed to make the Zephyrus GA502 – an ultra slim gaming notebook – more accessible to the consumers by making their prices a little more affordable.
Priced at RM4,999, the ASUS Zephyrus GA502 will be available at all authorized ASUS resellers in the month of July.
