Asus rog x1311/20/2023 If you shut down the laptop, unplug the XG Mobile and then turn the laptop on back on, you'll need to either plug the eGPU back in or "accept risk" by acknowledging you're booting in a different state than the laptop was in before. If you want to deactivate the XG Mobile and switch back to the internal GTX 1650, you need to go to the Windows 10 taskbar for safe removal, which takes a minute. When you plug in the connector, software starts that prompts you to use a switch on the connector to lock it in place. It's permanently attached to the XG Mobile unit, however, and I worry about the whole thing breaking if there was an issue with the cable or connector. The cable, too, is quite hefty, but feels durable. On such a svelte laptop, its really stands out. One thing I can't get over the size of? The XG Mobile connector. It adds extra USB ports, an Ethernet jack and display outputs (allowing for up to four monitors in total between the devices) while serving as a 280W power adapter. Asus ROG Flow X13 With XG Mobile SpecificationsĪMD Radeon Graphics (integrated), Nvidia GeForce GTX 1650 Max-QĪsus XG Mobile with Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080ġ3.4-inch, 3840 x 2400, 16:10, 60 Hz, touchĨ02.11ax Intel Wi-Fi 6 AX200, Bluetooth 5.1Ģx USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C, USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A, HDMI 2.0b, 3.5 mm headphone jack, ROG XG Mobile interface (proprietary)ġ1.77 x 8.74 x 0.62 inches / 299 x 222 x 15.8mmĪs of this writing, Asus is selling the Flow X13 with the XG Mobile, a combination dock, power brick and Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080. The 2020 Asus ROG Zephyrus G14, a mid-sized gaming notebook, is 3.5 pounds and 12.8 x 8.7 x 0.7 inches. For instance, the Dell XPS 13 2-in-1 9310 is 2.9 pounds and 11.6 x 8.2 x 0.6 inches. However, part of that connector is a normal USB Type-C port, just like the one on the other side of the laptop, and you can also use it for data or charging if you don't have an XG Mobile.Īt 2.87 pounds and 11.77 x 8.74 x 0.62 inches, it's more in the range of an ultraportable than a gaming notebook. Next to those is a small rubberized cap that covers the port for XG Mobile, Asus' proprietary external GPU housing an RTX 3080. The left side has an HDMI 2.0b output and a 3.5mm headphone jack. It is, however, a weird space to have a fingerprint reader, and I missed it several times when reaching for it to unlock the device from sleep as a regular laptop (the feature makes far more sense as a tablet). Like the one on Asus' Zephyrus G14 from last year, it even reads your print as soon as you push it to turn the laptop on and will automatically log you in. That's also where you'll find the power button, which doubles as a fingerprint reader. ![]() On the right side, there's a USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A port and a USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C port for charging and data. Since this is primarily a 2-in-1, not a gaming notebook, Asus has gone thin and sacrificed room for ports.
