The Asus ROG Zephyrus S GX701GXR (ROG Zephyrus S GX701 Series) 2TB / 64GB is ASUS's 2019 laptop featuring a height x width x depth (in mm): 18.7 x 399 x 272 ( = 0.74 x 15.71 x 10.71 in) display, the Intel Core i7-9750H 6c/12t 6 x 2.6 - 4.5 GHz, Coffee Lake-H chipset. At AED 2,499 in the UAE and ₹62,990 in India, it sits firmly in the mid-range tier.
The Asus ROG Zephyrus S GX701GXR excels with its Intel Core i7-9750H and RTX 2080 Max-Q 8GB GPU, delivering sustained 1080p gaming and content creation performance. Its 32GB DDR4 RAM (16GB soldered + 16GB module) ensures smooth multitasking, while the 76Wh battery lasts up to 5 hours under light use. This machine thrives for professionals running GPU-heavy apps like Blender or Premiere Pro who need portability without sacrificing raw power. Its weakness is thermals: under sustained load, the fan noise spikes and throttling occurs after 20–25 minutes, limiting peak performance. Storage is fast NVMe, but only one M.2 slot is available, limiting future upgrades. In UAE at AED 2499, it’s overpriced—newer RTX 4060 laptops offer better efficiency at similar cost. In India at ₹62990, it’s a poor buy; the same budget gets an RTX 4070 laptop with better cooling and newer Wi-Fi 6. Buy only if you need this exact GPU in a slim chassis and can accept thermal compromises.
