ASUS ROG Zephyrus S (GX531-GX) Gaming Laptop Review

ASUS ROG Zephyrus S

When it comes to performance laptops, there are very few brands that demand more attention than the ASUS ROG (Republic of Gamers) Zephyrus range.

In terms of gaming laptops, the Zephyrus design really does look to tick all of the right boxes with high-performance components with an ultra-slim and light weight design.

With this particular model (the GX531-GX) offering both an 8th-generation Intel processor and Nvidia 2080 graphics card, it’s pretty clear that it packs a lot of punch into an overall weight of less than 3KG.

Specifications

As you might expect, the ASUS ROG Zephyrus has a number of slightly different model variants. We know this as we have already reviewed a few of them and, incidentally, also own a couple. These differences are generally quite minor and generally tend to be based upon the graphics card and storage capacity. For example, in this particularly range, SSDs are available from 256GB all the way up to 1TB.

The specific model we had was the GX531 which features an Intel 8750H processor, Nvidia 2080 graphics card and a 15.6″ 144Hz display.

What Does ASUS Have To Say?

“After redefining ultra-slim gaming laptops with the original Zephyrus, ROG brings hardcore gaming to an even thinner design framed by super-narrow bezels. ROG Zephyrus S uses innovative engineering to cool its GeForce RTX^™ 2080 and 8th Gen Intel^® Core^™ i7 processor, so you can immerse yourself in its no-compromise 144Hz/3ms display.”
