ASUS ROG Zephyrus G15 GA503 review – rises from the ashes with a QHD 165Hz display and beast hardware
So, this is the third year that ASUS is making an ROG Zephyrus G15. If we have to be honest, the previous two iterations were flawed and didn’t deserve their users’ attention. However, the GA502 (in both its forms) paved the way for ASUS and AMD’s relationship. And the result of this is the ROG Zephyrus G15 GA503, which aims to completely revamp our views on the family of laptops.
For starters, it now comes with a Zen 3 portfolio of processors, maxing out with the Ryzen 9 5900HS. Also, on the graphics side, you have the latest and greatest from NVIDIA, in the form of three Ampere GPUs. The top option here is the RTX 3080 that has 8GB of GDDR6 memory and a TGP of 100W (80+20 from Dynamic Boost). Now, this is exactly where we want to look at, because last year, the cooling wasn’t able to handle even the RTX 2060 Max-Q. And as you can imagine, going to the RTX 3080 is a big step.
But let’s not get ahead of ourselves. After all, this laptop has other features that also deserve our attention. For example – the display. Some configurations will come equipped with a 144Hz 1080p panel. However, the top dog is a 1440p 165Hz IPS display, which we have all been waiting for. And today, you will learn how it performs.
Additionally, ASUS boasts with six-speaker stereo system, 3D noise-canceling microphones, and liquid metal applied to the CPU die. Apparently, they have gone all-in with this one.
