Slim 15.6" Gaming Laptop

The ASUS ROG Zephyrus GX501G is a 15.6-inch Windows 10 Pro gaming notebook built around an Intel Core i7-8750H six-core processor and an NVIDIA GTX 1080 graphics card with 8GB of video memory. It pairs 16GB of DDR4 memory at 2666 MHz with a 512GB NVMe solid-state drive. The chassis measures between 16.9 mm and 17.9 mm thick and uses an Active Aerodynamic System for cooling.

144Hz G-Sync Display Buyer

This laptop suits players who want a high-refresh 144Hz IPS panel with G-Sync and a 3ms response time in a thin 15.6-inch form factor. Buyers needing a larger screen, a touchscreen, or a GPU newer than the GTX 1080 should look at other models. The 512GB NVMe drive and 16GB of RAM are fixed specifications to consider.

GTX 1080 Max-Q Graphics

The single specification that decides fit is the NVIDIA GTX 1080 with 8GB of video memory in a Max-Q design. It delivers desktop-class frame rates at 1920 x 1080 resolution while allowing the 16.9 mm to 17.9 mm thin profile. If your workload demands more video memory or a newer architecture, this is not the right part.
