ASUS ROG Zephyrus GX501 is a gaming laptop with Windows 10 Pro. It doesn't have the best Intel processor and also less RAM than the competition for its price. The laptop has the GeForce GTX 1080 graphics card that is lackluster for playing games. You can play 70% of the games published this year on recommended settings. Full HD resolution is okay for the 15-inch 144 Hz screen. The 500gb SSD storage is less than average. It is quite hefty at 4.97 lbs.
