Game tests – dedicated graphics
Asus ROG Zephyrus is a premium line of gaming laptops that merges maximum performance with unique design and functional solutions. The hallmark has always been the AAS which stands for cooling with a flexible portion of the bottom that would uplift the notebook a few mm. On the other side of the portfolio there are ZenBooks, where Pro Duo with two displays attracted our interest last year. A new flagship, that merges the best that the manufacturer can offer, is here.

In Game Tests, we will be mainly interested in the increase in performance of the Super version of the RTX 2080 Max-Q compared to older, non-Super models, which we tested in HP and MSI laptops. Zephyrus G14 already lags significantly behind these tests due to the weaker RTX 2060 Max-Q.
In GTA, Zephyrus has significantly higher fps than HP and MSI by up to 60%, which translates into real 50 fps on average. This is definitely not a negligible difference.
In Far Cry, on the other hand, no big difference can be seen, quite the opposite. Zephyrus was ranked between HP and MSI with a loss of 4 and a lead of 5 fps.
Odyssey again shows the expected result, a 10 – 13% lead over the competition.
SOTTR shows almost no difference between the newer and old versions of the RTX 2080 and the Zephyrus has almost exactly the same score as the HP.
In Metro, the novelty is 21-25% stronger compared to HP and MSI. It even beats the desktop with 2070.
When RTX is on, the difference in the Metro has been reduced to 17-18%, which is still a significant difference.
