Break free from all limitations and game anywhere
ROG is completely amped up about the ROG Mothership (GZ700) and ROG Zephyrus S (GX701) compact gaming laptops that have further pushed the limits of versatility and performance. ROG has redefined the desktop replacement laptop category with ROG Mothership, moving from a design which traditionally sits flat to one that stands tall to draw more air into its advanced cooling system.
