You definitely know the ROG Zephyrus gaming line by Asus well, as we only recently brought you a test of the top-notch model Duo 15. The Zephyrus line started with one product, but today several models bear this tag. One of them is the M15 which, however, has little in common with the original Zephyrus. On the outside, it looks like a regular laptop without gimmicks in the form of a secondary display or the AAS.
Gaming tests – dedicated graphics card
In Game Tests, we will be mainly interested in the increase in performance of the Super version of the RTX 2070 Max-Q compared to the older, non-Super version in Scar III, but also the more powerful 2080 Super Max-Q in Duo 15.
In GTA, the Zephyrus M15 has significantly higher fps than the Scar III by up to 39%, which translates into real 30 – 35 fps on average. This is definitely not a negligible difference. It loses 12% or 10 – 15 fps on Duo 15.
We see a surprising result in Far Cry. The M15 beats the superior Duo 15, even if by only 4 fps, but still. It also offers a 9% higher minimum fps. Compared to the Scar III, it is 12% faster.
Odyssey now shows the expected result, a 6% lead over the Scar III but a 6% loss on the Duo 15.
Surprisingly, the SOTTR does not suit the M15 which achieved worse results than the Scar III by 26%. The M15 is thus at the level of the G14.
In Metro, the novelty is 17% stronger than Scar III and loses 8% to Duo 15.
When RTX was turned on, the difference in Metro was reduced to 11% compared to Scar III, but the lead of Duo 15 increased to 9%.
