Cooling
Rise to Any Challenge
Maximizing performance for a powerfully equipped ultra-slim gaming laptop with two integrated screens necessitates innovation. Our new AAS Plus system draws our classic Active Aerodynamic System, but opens up a larger 28.5mm air intake behind the second screen that draws in cooler air and reduces noise. When combined with innovative measures like liquid metal thermal compound on the CPU, this dynamic machine sustains incredible performance. ROG Armoury Crate software optimizes cooling performance and acoustics further by seamlessly switching between operating modes based on the task at hand.

Get a competitive edge in fast-paced FPS and multiplayer games with precise visuals and crystal clear action. Even compared to fast 144Hz displays, the superior smoothness of 300Hz is clear.
WIDE GAMUT COLOR
While the sRGB color space is the standard for most digital visuals, it only represents about 70% of the Adobe RGB spectrum used for professional art, graphic design, and filmmaking. The Adobe RGB color space was created to take full advantage of the broad range of pigments possible for high-end printers and film, making it a crucial tool for serious creators. Displays with complete Adobe RGB coverage make it easier for artists, videographers, and designers to add to portfolio of professional work.
PANTONE® Validated
Achieve true color confidence with PANTONE® Validated displays. Each IPS-level panel is factory calibrated to guarantee that every color you see meets rigorous and globally recognized Pantone® Color Validation requirements. Superior color accuracy allows artists, designers, and content creators to do serious professional work and enjoy richer gaming visuals all on the same machine.

Lift Your Airflow
In order to increase airflow through the ultra-slim chassis of our highest end Zephyrus laptops, our original Active Aerodynamic System (AAS) lifted to expose a small vent beneath the chassis. AAS Plus pushes that concept further, opening up a 28.5mm high air intake behind the tilted secondary display that increases airflow by 30%. Instead of drawing in air from below where warmer components have a greater effect on intake flow, allowing our fans to draw cooler air from above. The larger space also helps keep noise levels below 43dB on performance mode, giving you a quieter gaming experience.
Liquid Metal Thermal Compound
Liquid metal compound from Thermal Grizzly reduces CPU temperatures by up to 14°C* compared to standard thermal paste. The right amount must be applied meticulously for the best results, so we commissioned custom equipment that automates the process with mechanical precision. The block that sits on the CPU also has a special internal fence that prevents liquid metal from leaking out over time.
Ultrathin Fins
Thermal energy is dissipated by 4 heatsinks, each lined with ultrathin copper fins as slim as 0.15mm. These fins are half the size of typical solutions, allowing for higher density to increase surface area for heat dissipation and lower air resistance to allow for smoother flow. There are 252 heatsink fins totaling 110,328mm2 of surface area.
Comprehensive Heatpipes
Five heatpipes pull heat away from not only the CPU and GPU, but also the circuitry supplying them with power. Reducing the temperature of these power components helps improve long-term stability and reliability.
Scenario Profiles
Expertly tuned system profiles let you quickly adapt to different scenarios using a convenient keyboard shortcut. With the highest fan speed and frequencies, Turbo mode is the best for CPU-intensive workloads like video editing and 3D rendering. Performance mode optimizes performance and cooling to lower noise levels under 40 dB while gaming. Silent mode goes further to take acoustics below 35 dB for lighter workloads like watching movies.
Thunderbolt™ 3
With 4x the throughput of USB 3.1, Thunderbolt 3 offers the fastest transfer speeds to a massive range of devices. That enormous bandwidth means you can use an external GPU to double your graphics power, boosting your FPS for ultra high-resolution gaming or tearing through tasks like 3D rendering. Support for the DisplayPort™ 1.4 protocol lets you connect two 4K monitors at 60 Hz, or one 8K UHD TV or display for immersive and realistic visuals.
Boost Your Memory
Take your multitasking to the next level by expanding your system memory. The Zephyrus Duo has up to 32GB of combined onboard and SO-DIMM memory, which can be boosted up to 48GB with a simple self-upgrade. High-performance 3200MHz RAM is incredibly responsive, making your whole system feel speedier and more responsive.
ROG carefully chooses advanced components to ensure system stability and performance. To deliver the best experience, we use DDR4-3200 memory running at 1.2V. Reaching that speed with third-party modules is not guaranteed. Please contact your local ASUS support center for more details on memory upgrade options.
Easy-Upgrade Design
An easy-upgrade design simplifies system memory and storage modifications. Removing the pop-open screw pushes the bottom of the chassis away from the body. The hooks holding those edges together are smaller and stronger than before, with a looser fit that makes it easier to lift off the panel. All of your SO-DIMM and SSD slots are readily accessible beneath the bottom panel, making modifications easy.
