Both models feature larger keycaps and touchpads for better typing and gaming. Plus, they sport a new Platinum White color with a luxurious matte finish. Additionally, they come with a new LED lighting system on the lid called Slash Lighting. It offers customizable patterns and animations, ensuring you stand out.
These laptops redefine thin-and-light gaming with their slim design and powerful performance.
AI Pushes Performance to New Heights
Equipped with the latest AMD Ryzen 8000 Series processor and AMD Ryzen AI support, the Zephyrus G14 is poised for the future. It offers compatibility with Windows Studio effects productivity tools, enabling features like automatic framing, eye-contact correction, and advanced background effects during video calls. Additionally, it boasts up to an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop GPU, providing access to advanced features such as DLSS 3.5, Frame Generation, and Ray Reconstruction for enhanced visuals and gaming responsiveness in demanding titles.
In contrast, the Zephyrus G16 features up to an Intel Core Ultra 9 processor 185H paired with up to an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 Laptop GPU. This combination delivers exceptional performance in both gaming and creative applications. With dedicated AI support for tools like Omniverse and Stable diffusion, users can generate images locally in seconds, bypassing lengthy cloud queues. With access to the latest AI-accelerated technologies, this hardware effortlessly handles the most demanding creation software and games.
First ROG OLED gaming laptop with ROG Nebula Display
ROG proudly introduces the new Zephyrus G as the first gaming laptops with OLED panels with the ROG Nebula Display. Both models deliver an exceptional blend of visual fidelity and image quality ideal for fast-paced gaming. The Zephyrus G14 offers a 3K resolution, 120 Hz panel, while the Zephyrus G16 boasts a 2.5K 240 Hz display. With NVIDIA G-SYNC support, these laptops ensure remarkable motion clarity, even during brief framerate drops.
Both options feature a 16:10 aspect ratio, VESA DisplayHDR True Black 500, and an impressive 1,000,000:1 contrast ratio, delivering true inky blacks. Achieving 100% coverage of the DCI-P3 color space and a Delta E accuracy of less than 1, these displays are favored by content creators who prioritize color accuracy. Gamers will appreciate the incredibly fast 0.2 ms gray-to-gray response time, virtually eliminating ghosting and ensuring the clearest image with every screen refresh.
Hyper-efficient Cooling
Slim yet powerful laptops require highly efficient cooling solutions. The CPU utilizes a high-performance liquid metal thermal compound, while 2nd Generation Arc Flow Fans help expel heat from the chassis effectively. Tri-fan technology, featuring a third auxiliary fan, aids in directing airflow over components and removing GPU heat. For Zephyrus G16 models with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 Laptop GPU, a custom vapor chamber with dual fans is employed to accommodate the flagship hardware.
