BUILT UP
Styled in metallic Eclipse Gray or pearlescent Moonlight White, the Zephyrus G14 is a stunner. Its clean aesthetic travels easily from LAN parties to lecture halls, with fine-tuned detailing that puts it in a class of its own. Precision CNC milling creates 6,536 perforations across the aluminum lid for a distinctive dot matrix design. Honeycomb reinforcements add strength with minimal material to keep the chassis light. The magnesium-aluminum alloy deck is fingerprint resistant to keep it looking fresh day to day.

PRECISION MACHINING
The striking dot matrix design on the lid is made with a precision CNC milling process that creates 6,536 perfectly spaced perforations in an incredibly small surface area. The unique pattern is stylish yet subtle, with the diameter of the openings carefully chosen to emit just the right amount of light from the 1,215 mini-LEDs that lie below on the optional AniMe Matrix display.

LIGHT IT UP
Featuring a first-of-its-kind AniMe Matrix display, the G14 offers deep personalization in a truly unique way. The groundbreaking display is made up of 1,215 individual mini-LEDs that can be used to display custom images and animations that express your creativity and audio visualizations that match music playback. Future updates will enable status notifications that keep you in the loop on new messages, battery life, and more.

POWER UP
The Zephyrus G14 changes the game for portability by packing unprecedented power into a 14-inch body weighing just 1.6kg. Its AMD Ryzen 9 5900HS CPU is tuned with lower power consumption and thermals that enable superior performance for ultra-slim laptops. Cutting-edge 7nm process technology puts up to 8 cores and 16 threads on a single chip, allowing you to muscle through heavy workloads. Add up to a GeForce RTX 3060 GPU that can unlock even more performance with ROG Boost, and move from fast-paced gaming to content creation in a flash.

LIVE IT UP
Gaming laptops typically struggle to stay alive without a massive power brick, but the Zephyrus G14s energy-efficient AMD Ryzen 9 5900HS CPU lets you finish up work, watch videos, and stay productive without the weight. USB Power Delivery gives you the flexibility to charge the battery with portable Type-C power packs and adapters, or quickly rejuvenate compatible smartphones and other devices. Say goodbye to fighting over sockets in crowded cafes, and live life untethered.

SPEED UP
Choose the display that best fits your lifestyle. Avid creators will relish the high-resolution detail visible in the WQHD panel, while esports enthusiasts will see smoother gameplay on the superfast 144Hz option. Adaptive sync synchronizes the displays refresh rate with the GPUs frame rate to eliminate tearing and make gameplay more fluid. Pantone validation ensures that colors are accurate across 100% of the sRGB spectrum for pro-level portfolio projects. Super-narrow bezels around the display practically fade into the background, keeping you fully engrossed in whats on-screen.

MASH UP
The Zephyrus G14 comes with an uncompromised keyboard that fits full-size functionality into a much smaller machine. Its the first ROG laptop to feature fingerprint login on the power button, making waking up the laptop as simple as unlocking your phone. The desktop-inspired layout makes you feel right at home with dedicated hotkeys that put volume, microphone mute, and ROG Armoury Crate software within easy reach. Overstroke technology triggers higher in each keystroke for faster responsiveness, and the ErgoLift design raises the keyboard at an angle to make typing more comfortable than ever.

TURN IT UP
Virtual 5.1.2-channel surround sound powered by Dolby Atmos technology puts you in the center of the action. Twin tweeters fire sound directly at you, while dual Smart Amp woofers bounce sound off the table. Turn up the volume at parties and events and enjoy louder, more dynamic audio. Switch between 6 preset modes that optimize settings based on the type of game and media, or make manual modifications that fit your preferences.

KEEP UP
Equipped with the latest Intel Wi-Fi 6 with Gig+ (802.11ax), you can game reliably at LAN speeds wherever compatible connections are available. Wi-Fi 6 (Gig+) boosts network speed and efficiency, providing a better connection for crowded spaces like coffee shops and libraries. It also reduces latency, meaning less lag for network-sensitive activities like online gaming.

DONT HEAT UP
Unleashing the peak performance of high-end components is especially difficult in ultra-slim laptops. Innovative solutions are needed to ensure reliable, sustained performance, so ROGs Intelligent Cooling philosophy mixes the right features and system settings to ensure the best experience no matter what youre doing. In the Zephyrus G14, self-cleaning cooling prevents dust build up from compromising long-term performance, while dual n-Blade fans spin 81 blades each to generate impressive airflow within the slim frame. ROG Armoury Crate software seamlessly switches between operating modes to optimize performance and acoustics for the task.

TUNE UP
ROG Armoury Crate software unifies system and lighting controls to put essential settings at your fingertips in a single utility. You can easily define and customize Scenario Profiles that automatically make adjustments when you launch your favorite titles.

LOAD UP
A wide variety of ports makes the G14 especially flexible. Drive a second display to multitask more efficiently via the USB-C port with DisplayPort 1.4. Watch 4K UHD movies on the big screen or easily connect a projector with HDMI 2.0b. Hook up your mouse, gamepad, drawing tablet, and other peripherals to play or be creative anywhere. Theres no need for dongles with a 3.5mm headset jack built in.

GEAR UP
Bundle the ROG Zephyrus G14 with an array of gaming peripherals and accessories. Upgrade your stream with the ROG GC21 external camera, which captures crisp Full HD detail at a silky 60 FPS. Navigate smoothly and precisely with the ROG Impact gaming mouse. Lighten your load with a smaller, 65W adapter that offers enough power for you to stay productive anywhere. And give your laptop a little extra security on the road in a convenient, perfectly sized sleeve. GA401QM-K2196T
