Asus ROG Zephyrus Duo 16 Unboxing & Benchmarks: Ryzen 9 7945HX / RTX 4090

[@iLegionaire3755]

Quite honestly the coolest laptop I have EVER seen in my life, want VERY badly.

[@deepelements]

I got the AMD Ryzen 9 7945HX Hexadeca-Core-Prozessor 4090 GTX Duo 16 version of this and it is insane. I'm using it for Blender, Unreal 5, zbrush and video editing, and the dual screens makes it a dream machine. I'm basicly making a game with this laptop.

[@awesomestuff2496]

Hey I'm looking to buy this one. I have some doubts about these machines. How can I get in touch with you? Got telegram?

[@masterofkay6350]

Can you tell me how long the battery life is ? Because i want to use it with the plug all the time but i do travel a bit so i need a laptop that can also run some minor tasks for like 4 to 5 hours without dying, and i can’t find a info about that

[@PKperformanceEU]

I'm also looking for a laptop to do unity, ue5, c/c++ c# ASM and blender. I can't decide between the ZenBook pro 14oled 4070 vs A zephyrus duo 16 4080 . The OLED display is better, but this offers more performance

[@JuniorStreetCrew]

Damn, I also need a new laptop for graphic design, blender and video editing. Are the colors and contrasts accurate on this display? I am between this laptop and the zenbook pro duo oled 🙏🏼🙏🏼 would appreciate an ansparet very much ❤

[@awesomestuff2496]

@@JuniorStreetCrew What software do you use for video editing?

[@Slim526]

I just got this as a gift for my birthday two days ago and I’m blow away this is nuts

[@ingaz6565]

I have a lower spec version Ryzen 9, 3070ti, 32 gb or ddr5. This laptop is awesome , does everything I ask it to do with the kicker being that its got some of the best thermals of any gaming laptop.

[@SomethingAwry123]

Thanks for the disassembly. People were saying that the GPU had liquid metal applied contrary to the Asus site saying paste. I had my doubts on their vlaims but your video has confirmed that it was paste.

[@GenTechPC]

Yup as you can see clearly, GPU indeed using generic dry-type paste.

[@dvr1337]

Didnt asus say that all 2023 gaming notebooks have liquid metal?

[@khalifa6413]

[@hotieguy]

just ordered a scar strix 18 from yall and this in depth review is one of the reasons why. Cant wait to see my new baby lol!

[@GenTechPC]

Thank you for your support. :)

[@quantumdisplacer]

still like the scar strix 18?

[@kalkydra]

Great video, thank you for the detailed review. Have you tried Warzone and how much FPS you can get out of it in all settings? Cheers!.

[@shanelynn4277]

Wondering if you could tell me how thick is the thermal pad used for the back and front side of the SSDs? Thanks for the whole benchmarking & disassembly videos of this nice looking laptop 😆

[@GenTechPC]

Looks like it's a 3mm thermal pad on SSDs.

[@indominusrex2870]

Thanks for the review. Quick question here: how to change the system default SSD to a more premium SSD such as 990 Pro? Any recommended software to do copy the system and drivers? Thanks.

[@avetruetocaesar3463]

They used a phase-changing thermal pad on the GPU, not paste.

[@GenTechPC]

It's thermal paste.

[@dvr1337]

​@@GenTechPC for that price and every other highend brand not using paste anymore is a shame

[@Arthur_StJohn]

thats a terrible news. Is this an engineering sample? Didnt they market this laptop as having liquid metal?

[@iwantpeace6535]

Ryzen 9 7945HX should be the best seller in 2023 ..we need to see more laptops with Ryzen 9 7945HX ...why they make us wait?

[@GenTechPC]

We have Scar 17 with 7945HX in stock now.

[@Antonio-qn2el]

Great walkaround, but you need to give context to those benchmarks numbers/noise levels, it seems to me that the profile you run those is the silent one as a 16k graphics score in timespy is too low, this laptop's score with the 4090@full beans has been confirmed to be around 21-22k

[@GenTechPC]

It's straight out of the box review. The low score on timespy was because of the early nVidia driver, update to latest driver will boost performance.

[@Adrian-sd8ck]

excellent video

[@harrymorris613]

Is the main screen bright enough for use outdoors during the day (not direct sunlight)?

[@GenTechPC]

Yes and the screen is 1100 nits.

[@johncandelario294]

Ok I’m lost. Some comments say it’s not Liquid Metal but in video it shows it s or am I missing something?also I got my from XOTIC pc and paid 29 extra dollars for thermal grizzly Liquid Metal protector and extra pads is that not better as I’m thinking it is. Thanks for reply.

[@GenTechPC]

It has LM on CPU and generic paste on GPU.

[@johncandelario294]

@@GenTechPC ahh got it. I will make sure to upgrade that when i get a chance since i really like the thermal grizzly stuff. is it at least good paste?

[@rotarydude07]

what are the thickness of the thermal pad for heatpipe to the surrounding vram(?) or mosfet (?)

[@GenTechPC]

It doesn't use thermal pads, it use thermal paste.

[@Leavenfish]

Curious: wtih 2 monitors already built in....could you connect to a third 'larger' screen? I have a nice screen...would hate for it to be useless if I got this.

[@GenTechPC]

Yes you can.

[@taranagnew436]

when you plug a external monitor in, does the screenpad deactivate?

[@GenTechPC]

No it does not.

[@raiyne7795]

no. it just shows you have three screens

[@Ric0ceronte]

Cool !😎🔥🍿🐧🍿🐧🍿🐧

[@MichaelRyannz]

Is this Asuses 2023 version of that machine.. ?

[@GenTechPC]

Yes it's 2023 version.

[@moonknight8693]

Looks like they don't give vega any more my 5800h have vega 8

[@GenTechPC]

Because Vega 8 is a 14nm 25W so the 7945HX uses new 5nm 15w for better efficiency.

[@ramakrishnamishra8179]

I will start saving money today and buy this in 2025 😅

[@thelongranger6551]

Hello im ready to order today. When you can ship?

@@thelongranger6551 Depends on which states it ships to, if it's outside of California then no tax.

[@awesomestuff2496]

[@ziz8245]

Why Ram companies don.t manufacture 256 gb chip for laptop?

[@GenTechPC]

Chipset limitations, so far it only support 32GB max per slot.

[@DougDoesIt]

Umm, do you want any kind of battery life?
