ASUS Republic of Gamers 2025 Gaming Laptop Lineup Features Cutting-Edge Performance and All-New Designs
Flow Z13 redefines portable power
Since its debut in 2022, the ROG Flow Z13 has been the benchmark of power and portability in a gaming tablet. But for 2025, ROG has redefined the category, thanks to a brand-new and ultra-powerful chiplet processor from AMD, the AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395. This desktop–class CPU also features incredibly powerful RDNA 3.5 graphics cores, giving it gaming performance that is on par with Radeon™ 8060S graphics, with incredible power efficiency. Dedicated NPU cores also make the Flow Z13 a capable AI PC, with 50 TOPS of total NPU compute power, so it delivers an enhanced Copilot+ experience..
To fit all this power in such a compact chassis, the Flow Z13 features premium power–delivery components, including 14 power phases and Japanese capacitors. The Flow Z13’s processor utilizes a unified quad-channel memory design, allowing the entire device to share the same pool of up to 128GB of ultra-high–speed LPDDR5X-8000 RAM between both the CPU and GPU cores completely dynamically. Whether gamers are deep in the latest games, editing a video file, or simply browsing the web, the unified memory structure dynamically allocates the load.
The 2025 Flow Z13 features a brand-new vapor chamber, now built with a combination of stainless steel and copper and offering 54% more coverage of the mainboard compared to the previous generation design. This design keeps the vapor chamber low-profile yet retains rigidity, all while offering excellent cooling performance. The Flow Z13 features a redesigned pathing for air from the pair of 2nd Gen Arc Flow Fans™, diverting a small amount to a specially designed channel behind the touchscreen to keep skin temperatures lower during use.
A gorgeous 2.5K 180Hz ROG Nebula Display takes center stage on the Flow Z13, with 100% coverage of the DCI-P3 color space and 500 nits of peak brightness. The machine also features robust I/O, with a 200W charging port, a dedicated HDMI port, as well as dual USB-A and dual USB-C® ports, both of which support USB4®.
Two models are available, featuring an NVIDIA GeForce RTX™ 5090 Laptop GPU or an NVIDIA GeForce RTX™ 5070 Ti Laptop GPU. For a seamless single-cable solution to elevate an existing gaming laptop’s performance, gamers need look no further.
Both models have a brand–new chassis design, complete with an off-black semi-transparent casing that allows a glimpse inside the XG Mobile and the premium components within. This compact chassis features a brand–new stainless steel vapor chamber, which reduces weight without reducing surface contact or cooling efficiency.
Part external GPU and part external dock, the XG Mobile has extensive connectivity. With a single Thunderbolt 5 cable, the XG Mobile boasts dual USB 3.2 Gen2 Type-A ports, HDMI® 2.1, DisplayPort™ 2.1, a 5Gbps Ethernet port, a UHS-II MicroSD card reader, and an additional downstream Thunderbolt 5 port. With a single connection, gamers can turn their gaming laptop into a true battlestation.
