The Morning After: Computex's new laptops from ASUS, Razer and more

If you’ve been holding out for the latest 2025 PC models and graphics card loadouts, Computex is usually when you have to check your bank balance. The PC-centric tech show in Taiwan has kicked off with a barrage of new laptops from the likes of Razer, ASUS and Acer.

ASUS has revealed the new ROG Zephyrus G14, with a 14-inch (of course) screen at 3K resolution, a refresh rate of 120Hz, 500 nits of peak brightness and Dolby Vision support. The G14 can be outfitted with up to an AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 processor with 12 cores and 24 threads and an AMD XDNA NPU with up to 50 TOPS. The graphics card maxes out with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080, while RAM options go up to 64GB and on-board storage up to 2TB.

Meanwhile, Razer’s new Blade 14 laptops will arrive with RTX 5000 series cards, while still remaining thin, thin, thin. Those NVIDIA cards can tap into the company’s DLSS 4 tech to provide “the highest quality gaming experience possible in a 14-inch” laptop, according to Razer. The laptops have AMD Ryzen AI 9 365 processors that can achieve up to 50 TOPS. And if you’re feeling even more lavish, there’s also the bigger Blade 18, which you can load out with the RTX 5090. And then there’s Acer, which is doing something special with thermal interface materials.

More original Switch games are getting a Switch 2 makeover. Although their enhancements are subtler than the Switch 2 editions of Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom, at least these will be free. Nintendo’s list includes some of the console’s best games: Super Mario Odyssey, Super Mario 3D World + Bowser’s Fury and New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe. It also has the platform’s top-down Zelda titles: Echoes of Wisdom and Link’s Awakening. A pair of Pokémon games makes the cut: Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet.

LG’s 27-inch 1440p UltraGear OLED monitor is as close to gaming nirvana as fps-hungry players can get. Topping out at a 480Hz refresh rate means it can actually display up to 480 fps. Devindra is already obsessed with it — 240Hz can go to bed.
