Not very happy about my unit.

My unit has heavy signs of heavy wear. The computer arrived in a generic box. No docs and no mouse that is supposed to be included according to many videos i found online. The computer seems to perform alright but it has heavy accumulation of dust in the lower compartment that opens up when you open the computer. No stamps reflecting the unit was inspected and refurbished by anyone, no phone numbers. This is concerning as i feel i bought a used computer that was repacked and resold

Well powered

Been very pleased with the laptop. After a few days of use it seems to runs games very well (Rise of the Tomb Raider) as well as some 3d modeling and rendering software without lagging or over heating. I wish it were even simpler aethetically, but as "gaming laptops" go it's pretty understated. I do wish the "Republic of Gamers" wasn't in your face though, for those of us who want to use the laptop in a professional setting. My main gripe is that there is no way to turn off the red LED that glows thru the handy vented mechanism - night time useage in a dark room is not ideal with the bright red glow this thing puts out. Perhaps a firmware update could give us control some Asus?

Monster Laptop, Good price, but with no additional accessories.

The laptop comes in good shape in plain packaging, with a charger bundle. Nothing Else. This laptop is monster and it can basically crash any game recently. But hard to say in the next few years. No problems occurs to me after two weeks of using this laptop. Overall, it worth the money.

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 with Max-Q Design, a 7th Generation Intel Core processor, 120Hz wide-view display and Windows 10 Professional. ROG slimmed the body to a mere 16.9-17.9mm while maintaining powerful cooling thanks to a clever new 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 with Max Q Design
Max-Q design is an innovative approach to designing the world's thinnest, fastest and quietest gaming laptops. Everything's engineered for the ultimate thin gaming laptop experience, including the laptop, chip, drivers, thermal and electrical components and more. ROG Zephyrus takes thin-and-light gaming laptops to a whole new level. It has a slim profile just 16.9-17.9mm thin and weighs only 4.9 lbs, but that doesn't stop it from packing the latest NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 graphics.

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 our unique AeroAccelerator technology, this gap improves airflow by 40% 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.

Breath Deeply
AAS incorporates a unique AeroAccelerator (AA) technology that increases the speed and efficiency of airflow through the laptop. It starts with the carefully shaped aluminum alloy shroud around the intake, which has curved edges and raised guides that channel more cool air into the fan. The fan blades are made of a special liquid crystal polymer that lets us reduce the thickness by 33% compared to traditional designs.

We can add more blades as a result, improving airflow through the fan by 26%. Cool air passes over heatsink fins just 0.1 mm thick - half the thickness of typical fins. The thinner profile reduces air resistance while letting us squeeze in more fins to increase the surface area for better heat dissipation.

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 1.4mm of travel for greater comfort and accuracy when gaming and typing. With an expected lifetime of 20 million presses, the keys.

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's 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.

ROG Hyperdrive For Blazing Fast Storage Speeds
ROG Zephyrus features an extraordinary 512GB SSD based on the latest NVM Express (NVMe) and PCI Express technologies. With ultra-fast access times and blistering transfer rates, the M.2 drive loads games, apps and other data at warp speed. Its copious capacity has ample storage for everything you need.

120Hz Display for Impeccable Visuals
ROG Zephyrus's 120Hz display lets you enjoy exceptionally smooth gaming at a true 120 frames per second. Everything feels fluid, especially fast-paced games. With wide viewing angles and 100% sRGB gamut coverage, the panel also produces outstanding colors regardless of where you're sitting.

Seamless Gameplay with NVIDIA G-SYNC
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 VR Experiences
Take the plunge into virtual reality. With the latest NVIDIA GeForce GTX graphics, ROG Zephyrus delivers smooth, stutter-free VR performance with frame rates exceeding 90FPS. Compatibility with leading VR headsets like the Oculus Rift and HTC Vive let you easily enjoy fully immersive VR environments. It's time to explore a whole new world of games and experiences.

Extensive Connectivity
ROG Zephyrus is jam-packed with the latest connectivity to give you blazing-fast transfer rates and maximum compatibility. The USB Type-C port delivers up to 40Gbps to Thunderbolt devices - four times the bandwidth of USB 3.1 gen 2 - while four USB 3.1 gen1 ports are ready for all your existing gear. With HDMI 2.0, you can connect to 4K TVs at 60Hz.

Immersive Sound
ROG Zephyrus equips Smart Amp 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. Smart Amp technology protects speakers by setting thermal and excursion thresholds and monitoring variations due to loading and temperature influence.

The Choice of Champions
For more than a decade, ROG has channeled its passion for gaming into building innovative products and working closely with esports teams to ensure they have the right tools to pursue victory.
