According to slides shared by AMD, ASUS’s 14-inch ROG Zephyrus G14 can power through most of today’s most popular games at admirable frame rates at 1080p/high settings thanks to its Ryzen 9 4900HS chip and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2090 Max-Q mobile GPU. Triple-A games such as F1 2019 and Strange Brigade can hit up to 121 FPS, while competitive hits such as Rocket League and CS:GO can reach 229 FPS.
