The memory read speed is still half of what it should be (~119 GB/s vs. 256 GB/s). This is well beyond simply “effective vs. theoretical“. I had high hopes that the issue was exclusive to the implementation in the Asus ROG Flow Z13. Not good. I guess I’ll be waiting for Medusa Halo in 2027.

USB4/Thunderbolt 4 on the Z13 caps out at 40 Gbps, but only 32 Gbps gets allocated to PCIE for eGPUs. (note that's gigabits per second, so divide by 8 and that will give you 4 GB/s of bandwidth). This is equivalent to a PCIE 3.0 4x connection, which is frankly not a lot. I think midrange (desktop) c

The other one I was interested in, the ROG Flow Z13 is similarly priced, but way heavier than I am interested in. I had looked at others like Lenovo, Asus, and Dell, but they were either also similarly priced or didn’t match the specs I was interested in, particularly the 32gb+ of ram. Plus, Microso

This really is pretty far from powerful. In a world where tablets like the Asus ROG Flow Z13 exist and can run a standard install of a desktop Linux distribution, running a Linux desktop environment on top of Android feels pretty severely lacking. Don't get me wrong, it's great that you're offering

IMO, the G14 is better for college since it's easier to carry around and fits into more bags, but it's really a tossup since both laptops are pretty light and fit into bags easily. I'd still lean towards the G14, though, especially since its iGPU is far better than the G16's. The 890M can't really b

The closest handheld/tablet we have to PS5 power is an ASUS ROG Flow Z13 (2025).... and it costs a whopping $2099 in the US. Even if you cut the PC functionalities so it's only a handheld gaming device, we're still looking at something over $1000 which isn't gonna fly at all.

It's an effective 3-4x increase in APU performance in one generation compared to what was typically a 5-10% uplift based on AMD's prior generations of products, so on that merit alone it's awesome. However the "relative" comparison of the Radeon 8060 iGPU to a 4060/4070 mobile is a bit dubious as th

Hi, hope this explains it for you and helps. I love the concept and I even own a Flow Z13 (2022) with the XG Mobile. It’s a cool device. But if your goal is running transformers efficiently for workshops or research, it’s the wrong tool. A few things people don’t say out loud: “Modern APU ≈ RTX 4060

I have had multiple ROG devices (Flow, Zephyrus) and from my experience this isn't isolated to this device only. I have the 2025 flow z13 and also suffer on the occasion from the total system lockup. My solution with all these asus ROG devices was a clean install of Windows from a USB. Not cloud rec

With the AI Max what is the thermal performance of it in such a small form factor in the rog flow z13? Is cooling sufficient? I'd be worried about it throttling during gaming.
