We had high praise for the original ROG Zephyrus when we reviewed it last year , which partially owes its thin and light design to Nvidia's Max-Q GPU design. The latest model is even thinner than before, and now sports a 6-core 8th generation Intel Core i7-8750H processor as found in MSI's GS65 Stealth Thin, our favorite gaming laptop at the moment.

The new Zephyrus S (GX531) sports a 15.6-inch "IPS-level" display with a 1920x1080 resolution and fast 144Hz refresh rate, up from 120Hz from its predecessor. It is also 12 percent slimmer, measuring 0.62 inches at its thickest point, and 0.59 inches at its thinnest section. Weight checks in at under 5 pounds.
