Description
ROG Zephyrus is a revolutionary gaming laptop born from ROG's persistent dedication to innovation. Despite being thinner than all previous ROG laptops, it has the hardware to rival high-end gaming desktops: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 graphics and a 7th generation Intel Core processor. ROG slimmed the body to a mere 17.9 mm while maintaining powerful cooling and unbeatable acoustic efficiency thanks to a clever air-flow design: Active Aerodynamic System. The sleek chassis also includes an RGB keyboard that will feel familiar to gamers who typically play on desktop PCs.

Slim and sleek
ROG Zephyrus takes thin-and-light gaming laptops to a whole new level. It has a slim profile just 17.9 mm thin and weighs only 2.2 kg, but that doesn't stop it from packing the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 graphics with Max-Q design - an innovative approach to designing the world's thinnest, fastest, and quietest gaming laptops. An innovative hinge and fan module help keep the high-end GPU cool, resulting in a gaming laptop that's portable enough to carry with you anywhere yet potent enough to compete with powerful gaming desktops. -
Play it cool
ROG Zephyrus is armed with an exclusive Active Aerodynamic System (AAS) that breaks all the rules. AAS combines intelligent design with innovative technologies to give gamers what they want: an ultra-slim laptop that runs cooler and quieter without sacrificing performance. When the laptop is opened, a portion of the bottom flexes to create 20% more open space for air circulation. Along with a unique AeroAccelerator technology, this gap improves airflow by 32% and reduces temperatures by 20% compared to conventional cooling. You can game for hours on end with impeccable stability and no throttling. ROG Zephyrus offers the highest level of performance in the smallest chassis. -
Breathe deeply
ROG-exclusive Active Aerodynamic System (AAS) includes several enhancements to make the cooler more effective, improving internal airflow and allowing the fan to spin slower and quieter while maintaining low temperatures. ASUS also adjusted the shape of the intake to reduce noise levels further and make the acoustic profile less obtrusive. Zephyrus runs cool enough to avoid throttling and quiet enough to enjoy your game. -
Make your keyboard unique with Aura RGB
ROG Zephyrus' keyboard is positioned at the front of the chassis to allow better cooling for the internal components and offer a more comfortable, familiar position for gamers accustomed to desktop keyboards. Aura RGB lighting lets you customize colors and dynamic effects for the entire keyboard, and you can adjust the QWER and WASD clusters separately to adapt to MOBA, FPS, and other games. Anti-ghosting tech ensures your commands are interpreted instantly and correctly - even if you hit up to 30 keys simultaneously. The ergonomically designed keys have 1.4 mm of travel for greater comfort and accuracy when gaming and typing. With an expected lifetime of 20 million presses, the keys offer exceptional durability and reliability for heavy use. -
Ultimate gaming performance
ROG Zephyrus is all about bringing innovative technologies and incredible gaming performance to an ultra-slim, portable, and stylish gaming laptop. Intel's 7th Generation Core i7 processor and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 graphics let the machine go toe-to-toe with the most hardcore gaming laptops - and even high-end desktops. Break all the rules with a true game-changer. -
Seamless gameplay
NVIDIA G-Sync technology synchronizes the display's refresh rate with the GPU's frame rate to make gameplay silky smooth. G-SYNC minimizes perceived stuttering, reduces input lag, and eliminates visual tearing all without affecting system performance. You get the smoothest, fastest, and most immersive experience across a broad range of games. -
Ultimate virtual reality experiences
Take the plunge into virtual reality. With NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 graphics, ROG Zephyrus delivers smooth, stutter-free VR performance with frame rates exceeding 90 FPS. Plug-and-play compatibility with leading VR headsets like the Oculus Rift and HTC Vive let you easily enjoy fully immersive VR environments. -
ROG Gaming Center
ROG Gaming Center gives you access to all the functions you need on a single dashboard - find system information, set up Aura RGB lighting, define hotkeys for faster in-game commands, adjust audio settings, or record gameplay. In addition, ROG GameFirst IV technology optimizes network traffic for faster, lag-free online gaming. -
Incredibly immersive sound
ROG Zephyrus equips a special technology to optimize audio output. In most cases when pushing the volume to the limit, speakers can break down easily because of excess heat and excursion. The technology protects speakers by setting thermal and excursion thresholds, and monitoring variations due to loading and temperature influence.
