Proving ROG’s engineering prowess, Zephyrus S GX531 is an ultra-slim laptop that packs high-end gaming components. Targeting a thinner chassis, the slender exterior measures nearly 15.35~16.15mm and leverages a 15.6” display, featuring NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 Max-Q. The low profile doesn’t scale down specifications, as GX531 is powered by the latest Intel Core i7-8750H CPU, a premium 144Hz refresh rate display and 3ms response time plus all the ROG essentials. This makes the smaller Zephyrus S a more focused alternative for people who prioritize portability above everything else.
