Design While I know in my head that the Aorus X9 comes off of a factory assembly line, in my heart, it’s what happens when an alien spaceship makes love to a race car and they have a baby underneath a phoenix rising from the ashes.

To the Zephyrus G14’s credit, the new AMD Ryzen 9 6900HS CPU is a hell of a performer, and that’s just the first layer of the cake. It rocks amazing battery life, solid speakers and a comfortable keyboard all packed into a svelte chassis. However, my hope for this device immediately diminished when I gazed upon its dim display. And unfortunately, the Radeon RX 6800S didn’t perform as well as its premium competitors....

Design: I Can’t Believe It’s an Asus When I first saw the Zephyrus, I was awestruck by its complicated beauty. The lid is made of brushed aluminum with half of the striations flowing horizontally, with the rest going vertical.
