Asus ROG Flow X13 Overview: Is Gaming With an eGPU the Future?

The Asus ROG Flow X13 is a gaming laptop that does not quite look like one. Its slim and lightweight chassis is excellent for regular office usage with a good set of internals to back it up including the AMD Ryzen 9 5980HS CPU and NVIDIA GTX 1650 GPU. However, for AAA titles, the machine uses Asus' proprietary connector for you to be able to hook up an external GPU housing up to an NVIDIA RTX 3080 GPU. With the limited time we have had with the machine, the concept impressed and hopefully, we will get to check it out more in-depth with a full review.

Nice overview! You mentioned the display is Gorilla Glass protected... is the protection replaceable if it would be scratched or shattered? Or is it fixed on the display?

The Corning Gorilla Glass is an inherent chemical property of the panel used and thus, is not a physical protective cover. If the display breaks, you will have to replace it entirely.

I doubt it. I have a 15 inch gaming laptop but i prop it on a stand while i use a mechanical keyboard. I want to game looking straight to front, not down on a laptop screen. So laptop gaming concept is not ideal and wont take over gaming as a whole

You have a valid point. However, most of the time, you can just have a laptop to the side like the ROG Flow X13 showcased, connected to it's eGPU. This in turn can be used to power an external monitor, keyboard and mouse for gaming in that manner.

I get where ur coming from I just got this laptop recently coz I’m going to college soon and I still can’t find the xg mobile dock it is unavailable but it’s a ideal setup because u see on a normal laptop u have to connect ur peripherals on the sides of the laptop and u have to unplug it when ur going out but with this one u can just use the ports on the egpu and u can remove the egpu when ur going out and I also have to go to college so I prefer a compact design but I also need a powerful gaming rig…..this setup tbh is not for everyone but it is very much ideal😁
