A recent gaming PC listing has revealed details about Nvidia's anticipated GeForce RTX 5090 and RTX 5080 desktop GPUs. Now, attention turns to their laptop versions. Sources like Videocardz and X user @94G8LA have discovered several listings that provide insights into Asus' 2025 products, including the amount of VRAM Nvidia's upcoming models will offer. It appears that the top three models will come with GDDR7 memory. Unlike the desktop version, however, the GeForce RTX 5090 won’t see an increase in video memory.
ROG Strix Scar 18 Variants
The ROG Strix Scar 18 will be available in two models: G835LX and G835LW. Users can choose between a Core Ultra 9 285 HX or a Core Ultra 9 275 HX for the processor. Based on their names, these seem to be Arrow Lake-HX parts that were introduced in a previous leak. For GPUs, buyers can opt for the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 (featuring 16 GB VRAM) or the GeForce RTX 5080. In contrast, the ROG Strix G16 (G615LR) offers the same CPU options but is restricted to the GeForce RTX 5080 and GeForce RTX 5070 Ti (with 12 GB).
Asus ROG Flow Z13 Tablet
Additionally, @94G8LA has shared a comprehensive SKU list detailing the specifications of each Asus laptop expected to be launched soon. This list confirms prior leaks about the Asus ROG Flow Z13 tablet, which will be equipped with AMD's Strix Halo-based Ryzen AI 9 Max+ 395 and 32 GB of soldered LPDDR6X-8000 RAM. The tablet boasts a 13-inch 16:10 OLED display with a refresh rate of 180 Hz, which is quite impressive.
AMD and Intel Offerings
Next, there are some Intel and AMD options that also utilize the same memory. We get a glimpse at the lower end of the GeForce RTX 50 series laptop models. Interestingly, the GeForce RTX 5070, 5060, and 5050 will all debut with 8 GB VRAM. This might not be the best thing, as it could lead to confusion among customers.
Another point worth mentioning is the inclusion of AMD Ryzen 7000 HX processors, specifically the Ryzen 9 7945HX and Ryzen 9 7940 HX. This suggests that AMD might not have any Ryzen 9000 HX models planned for this release, or they may not be included in Asus's laptop lineup.
