ALLAROUNDVERSATILITY

DESIGN

Design

Fast, Fluid, Flexible.

Our first 13-inch gaming device embodies versatility, changing form freely on a slick 360° hinge. Textured lines across the chassis strengthen its structure and add grip for easy carrying, with styling inspired by the gravitational waves of stellar objects. ROG easter eggs are hidden across the chassis, and triangular design accents reflect the rebelliousness of the Flow family. A low-profile chassis design, even smaller than last year, slips easily into crowded bags, leaving more room for your favorite gaming gears.

G-SYNC TechnologyNothing breaks in-game immersion like stuttering and tearing. GPUs render frames at variable rates, but displays usually refresh at a constant clip, so they can get out of sync, causing visible hitching and artifacts that pull you out of the action. With NVIDIA® G-SYNC, the refresh rate of the display synchronizes with the GPU’s frame rate to eliminate visual tearing, minimize stuttering, and reduce input lag. Get ready to experience gameplay that looks and feels more natural than ever.

Touchscreen toughnessThe Flow X13’s touchscreen display has been upgraded for 2023, with the brand-new Corning® Gorilla® Glass DXC coating. This material reduces surface reflections while increasing hardness by over 40% for better scratch resistance. Less reflections mean you can set the brightness lower, or more easily see your screen in outdoor and bright environments.* ROG Flow X13 also supports stylus with Microsoft Pen Protocol 2.0, up to 266Hz report rate and up to 4096 pressure level.

Pantone® Color ValidationEach IPS-level display is factory-calibrated to ensure that colors are accurate to the Pantone® palette. Artists, designers, and content creators can add high-quality content to their portfolios and enjoy richer gaming visuals all on the same machine.

Dolby Vision® TechnologyScene to scene, frame to frame, Dolby Vision makes media look better. The technology improves on standard 4K high dynamic range (HDR) video, dynamically adjusting visuals to make every image in front of you richer, brighter, and livelier. Creators can film and edit their streams, videos, and other content in a format commonly used by industry professionals.

Cooling

High efficiency flow

The Flow X13 utilizes the most advanced ROG Intelligent Cooling technology to keep temperatures under control despite having such a compact chassis. Liquid metal thermal compound on the CPU, 3 dedicated heatsinks, and slimmer heatpipes allow the X13 to run cool even during extended gaming sessions.

Liquid Metal Thermal CompoundLiquid metal lowers CPU temperatures by up to 13°C* compared to standard thermal paste. The right amount must be carefully applied for the best results, so we commissioned custom equipment to automate the process with precision, designed a patented internal fence to contain the compound, and added a special step to protect surface-mounted components on the processor package.* Unless otherwise stated, figures are based on theoretical performance. Actual figures may vary in real-world situations.

Slimmer HeatpipesFlatter heatpipes help minimize height in the ultra-slim form factor, and offer more surface area to pull heat away from core components. They snake over the CPU and GPU to reduce temperatures and help improve long-term stability and reliability.

Arc Flow Fans™Updated Arc Flow Fans™ feature curved blades specially shaped to maximize airflow with minimal noise. Our variable thickness design can get as thin as 0.1mm at the base of the fans before expanding toward the tip. This reduces turbulence as the fan blades accelerate air with centrifugal force, giving you a quieter overall experience.* Airflow improvements compared to the 71-blade ROG fan design, as tested internally by ASUS.

Anti-Dust Tunnels 2.0Our upgraded thermal module design features shorter anti-dust tunnels that leave up to 5% more space around the fan, improving airflow by up to 15%. Preventing the buildup of dust ensures the long-term stability and reliability of your system.

0.1mm ultra thin fins for the winThermal energy is dissipated by four heatsinks, each lined with ultra-thin copper fins as slim as 0.1mm. These fins are half the size of typical solutions, allowing for higher density and increased heat dissipation, as well as lower air resistance to allow for smoother flow. With up to 252 heatsink fins totaling 44,230mm ² of surface area, heat flows out of the system incredibly efficiently, letting your components boost higher, for longer.

Bathe EasilyFirst introduced on the 2022 Zephyrus G14, the Flow X13 features a dust filter on its intake vents. Dust and fibers can collect inside the machine, trapping heat and causing degraded performance over time. A filter helps keep dust out, allowing the CPU and GPU to breathe easier for years of smooth and stable operation. *Internal testing in a simulated dusty environment.

Portability

Travel anywhere

This year’s Flow X13 is more portable than ever, with a 10mm shorter footprint than previous models. At just 16.7mm thick and weighing only 1.3 kilograms, the X13 can easily fit into most bags and purses, while still leaving room for the rest of your daily essentials. USB-C fast charging can recharge from 0-50% in just 30 minutes. If you need to game on the go and don’t want to be tied to the wall charger, the X13 is here for you.

World-class keyboardDespite having a 13-inch chassis, the Flow X13 has been built with a keyboard layout more akin to those found on 15-inch laptops. This design allows for more room between each key, making every button press more natural for those used to larger keyboards.
As a gaming machine, the X13 has N-Key Rollover, guaranteeing you never miss a command when in game. A long 1.7mm travel distance makes every keypress feel more natural, and a slight 0.2mm curve on each keycap lets your finger rest comfortably on top of each key. Four dedicated hotkeys control mission-critical functions and can be remapped via Armoury Crate to suit your playstyle. Type comfortably in low light thanks to the white backlight on the keyboard and navigate with ease thanks to the extra-large touchpad.

Audio

Pump up the volume

Whether you’re gaming or working, quality audio can make all the difference. With Dolby Atmos surround sound, the X13 can create soundscapes that belie its small size. A 3D array microphone can capture your voice clearly no matter where you’re positioned, and Two-Way AI Noise Cancelation filters both incoming and outgoing audio for background noise. Whether there is a lawnmower or vacuum cleaner on your end or theirs, you’ll only hear the voices on the call.

3D Array Microphone

Three modes for the integrated microphone array give you greater control over your input. Cardioid mode captures sound from right in front of the laptop, while minimizing input from the back, making it ideal for streaming and gaming. Stereo mode uses right and left channels to record a wider soundscape for live music or other immersive experiences. Omnidirectional mode picks up sound from all directions equally for clearer group conference calls.

Two-way AI Noice cancelation

Our advanced Two-Way AI Noise Cancelation technology works with any input device, letting you remove noise from both your own mic input and from incoming feeds. It also runs on the CPU, which frees up the GPU to hit higher FPS. Noise-canceling settings can even be customized per program, filtering specific apps like voice chat without affecting game audio you want to remain untouched.

Dolby Atmos

Richer audio draws you deeper into the world of your games and media. Virtual 5.1.2-channel surround sound powered by Dolby Atmos enhances spatial immersion with more nuanced, layered sound effects that you can optimize with specially tuned preset modes for movies and games.
