ROG Unleash 2021 Gaming Laptops with AMD Ryzen 5000

All things big and possible as ASUS Republic of Gamers (ROG) launch their new line of gaming notebooks with the latest AMD Ryzen™ 5th gen processors. They also carry the NVIDIA® GeForce® RTX 3000 series, which means more gaming and graphics power are built into the new laptop computers. All of these will be released to the Philippine market on February 2021.

2020 was a good year too for ROG since they have released a few models like the ROG Zephyrus Duo 15 SE, the ROG Zephyrus G15, the ROG Strix SCAR series, the ROG Strix G line and the TUF Gaming series TUF Dash F15. It doesn't end there of course, because this year, they're bringing in more powerful hardware so you get more power in your machines.

ROG ZEPHYRUS DUO 15 SE


The ROG Zephyrus Duo 15 SE has AMD Ryzen™ 9 5900HX CPU with 8 cores. It's got power enough to handle your workload and even make your flow easy because of two screens. Editing videos, more screen area for games, or multitasking would be a cinch. The new gen Ryzen 5000 Series has an on chip cache of 20 MB. It also has NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 3080 GPU with 32G of RAM and 1TB of Raid 0 storage with 1TB of PCIE SSD. It's a monster of sorts, it can carry most of your processing power hungry games and if you're doing something else, you don't need to close other apps/programs on the laptop anymore. The ZEPHYRUS DUO 15 SE GX551QS-HB041TS costs Php 254,995.00 while the ZEPHYRUS DUO 15 SE GX551QR-HF009TS cost Php 199,995.00, which I suggest you get only if you are a serious gamer or into 3D stuff.

ROG ZEPHYRUS G15

Now I wouldn't mind having one myself because the ROG Zephyrus G15 is aesthetically pleasing. This comes in Moonlight White and Eclipse Gray. You've also got an AMD Ryzen™ 9 5900HS CPU and up to an NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 3080 which means you've got power to do stuff that you only dream of in gaming and hard computing. It's also got 32GB of RAM and 1TB of SSD storage, so those videos and photos have lots of places to go. If you're a daily gamer, this would be perfect to have and switch to pro looks if you want to take it to the office too. The ZEPHYRUS G15 GA503QS-HQ017TS costs Php 179,995.00 while the ZEPHYRUS G15 GA503QS-HQ018TS cost Php 179,995.00. If you prefer the ZEPHYRUS G15 GA503QR-HQ050TS, it would cost you Php 139,995.00, again only have this if you're serious as it is a hefty investment.

ROG STRIX SCAR 15 AND 17

Those who are into ESports need a companion to make sure their skill won't be hampered by hardware limitations. This is why the new ROG Strix SCAR 15 and Strix SCAR 17 exists. This is armed with a 300Hz refresh rate and 3ms response display, AMD Ryzen™ 9 5900HX CPU and up to an NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 3080 graphics card. With 32GB of RAM and 2TB of super-fast Raid 0 storage, you can do a lot of things and even stream without hitches because it can do it. Things can be modified in the Strix SCAR series, so no worries for those individuals who want to look different. You can also save profiles and even set your own RGB lighting when you want to, if you want to. The STRIX SCAR 17 G733QS-HG153TS and STRIX SCAR 17 G733QR-HG021TS cost Php 199,995.00 and Php 149,995.00 respectively while the STRIX SCAR 15 G533QS-HF126TS and STRIX SCAR 15 G533QR-HF038TS variant costs Php 194,995.00 and Php 144,995.00. If you think about how powerful this is, it's all worth every cent.

TUF GAMING 2020 SERIES

They're not stopping there because the ASUS TUF Gaming A15 and A17 is equipped with AMD’s latest Ryzen 7 5800H mobile processor and up to an NVIDIA® GeForce® RTX 3070. These have also been made tough and lightweight, but they never forgot to make it stylish. The gaming series utilize the latest 11th Gen Intel® Tiger Lake CPU and pretty much the top of the line hardware it could fit in one unit. The TUF Dash F15 FX516PR-HN092T cost Php 94,995.00 while TUF Dash F15 FX516PR-HN080T is priced at Php 85,995.00.
