The main body of “ROG Zephyrus” and the elements included in it look like this.

After booting I ran several benchmarks to see how powerful this PC is. When benchmarking, the attached product management utility software “Armory BoxUsed to configure “Turbo” to maximize CPU performance and GPU performance.


First, the standard reference software “Geekbench 5“it is.


The CPU test results were 1567 for single core (3972 for encryption, 1368 for integer arithmetic, 1597 for floating point arithmetic) and 7919 for multiple cores (4454 for encryption, 7883 for integer arithmetic, 8575 for integer arithmetic). floating point).


GPU benchmarking was done with OpenCL and CUDA for “NVIDIA GeForce RTX3070 Laptop GPU”. The OpenCL score is 119330.


The CUDA score was 129166.


Later “Passmark V10 performance testIt is a measure of score in. The total score is 4213.


The CPU (11th Gen Intel Core-i7 [email protected]) is 22457, which is a fairly high performance category. Outperformed AMD Ryzen 7 Microsoft Surface Edit on Microsoft Surface Laptop 4.


2D is 387. I have an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 laptop, but it scored lower than Intel Iris Xe Graphics and Intel Iris Plus Graphics.


However, 3D is actually 15815.


The memory is 2570.


The disk is 39111.


Passmark BurnInTestThe load test in “” was cleared without any problem.


The CPU never exceeded 70 ° C. The GPU did not get the temperature information every 10 seconds and drew a graph as if fluctuating wildly, but since there is no reason for 0 ° C, it actually changes stably between 50 ° C and 51 ° C. Looks like he was doing it.


According to the load test,FLIR ONE ProI checked the surface temperature of the terminal.

In general, it looks like this.


The hinge part radiated heat to the side of the screen and was above 50 ° C.


The heat exhaust part on the right side of the main body is about 44 ° C.


The heat exhaust part on the left side of the main body was about 43 ° C.


Thanks to the firm heat release, the palm rest area was in the range of 33 ° C.


The exhaust heat at the rear is 41 ° C.


When I checked the bottom, the hottest part was 56 ° C. No hot air is blowing here, but heat is reflected from the internal CPU / GPU, so it was warm to the touch. Due to the high rubber feet on the large terminals, it seems quite difficult to work by placing it directly on the feet.


The AC adapter was around 44 ° C.


The movement of the fans was quite intense when discharging so much heat. I actually compared the amount of noise the fan makes when the game is started at high load versus when the load is low. Also, I compared it to the state where the volume was set to “20” and played music to see how much it affected the sound from the speaker, and I summarized it in the next movie.

As for the battery, “To measure”PassMark BatteryMonIt took about 11 hours and 30 minutes for the battery level to drop from 100% to 10% when all the software did not start and the Wi-Fi was off, but I connected to Wi-Fi and played online games. It only took 55 minutes from 100% to 10% cutoff when playing. When it comes to the battery unit, you cannot select “Turbo” which is set to maximize CPU performance and GPU performance with the above mentioned “Armory Crate” management software, but the battery consumption remains being very large, so “Drum unit even outdoors” It was impossible to say “play clearly”.

However, when I thought of it as a stationary gaming PC without considering the portability part, it showed sufficient performance and I was not dissatisfied at all.
