The Zephyrus G chassis is closely related to the Zephyrus S GX502. The even cheaper Asus TUF FX505DY is also an alternative. Examples include the Acer Aspire Nitro 5, Lenovo Legion Y740, HP Omen 15, Gigabyte Sabre 15, Aorus 5, Acer Predator Helios 300, MSI GP63, or the Dell G7 series. Our specific test unit is a lower-end configuration retailing for about $1100 or $950 when on sale.Īs a budget quad-core gaming laptop, direct competitors to the GA502GU can be any gaming laptop powered by a quad-core Intel Core i5-8300H or Core i5-9300H CPU with GTX 1050, 1050 Ti, 1650, or 1660 Ti graphics. Other features like the 1080p display (60 Hz or 120 Hz), RAM (8 GB single-channel to 32 GB dual-channel), and storage (256 GB to 512 GB) are fairly standard and configurable. No other CPU or GPU options are available for the GA502 series at the time of writing.
The most notable qualities of the GA502GU are its aforementioned Ryzen CPU and Nvidia GTX 16 Max-Q GPU as this is the first laptop to pair both of these specific processors together. Our test unit today is the Zephyrus G GA502DU equipped with the uncommon AMD Ryzen 7 3750H CPU and Nvidia GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Max-Q GPU targeted at gamers on a budget who don't want to sacrifice the attractive designs of the latest ultra-thin laptops. The Zephyrus lineup itself has since expanded into additional subcategories including the super-slim Zephyrus S series, mid-range Zephyrus M series, and the more affordable Zephyrus G series.
The Zephyrus series is Asus' flagship family of ultra-thin gaming laptops followed by the mid-range Strix/Hero series and the entry-level budget TUF series.
