ASUS ROG Zephyrus Duo 15 SE (GX551) review – two displays and a lot of gaming power
Source: Laptop Media
Regardless of its freaky look, and inspiring features, the ROG Zephyrus Duo 15 SE (GX551) is one of the best gaming notebooks on the market right now. Some of this may be because of clever engineering. Not only because of the use of liquid metal for the CPU die, but also because the inclusion of a secondary display, that tilts towards the user, allows for more air to enter the chassis. Of course, for that to happen, the manufacturer has to do their homework. And ASUS definitely did. With the help of the additional grills beneath the ROG ScreenPad Plus, we see a decrease in GPU temperatures, compared to the ROG Strix G17 G713 by 12°C. For pretty much the same configuration, including the RTX 3070 (130W).

15-inch display variants are the standard and are used for more than half of all laptops.

The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, often allows high resolutions and thus offers rich details on the screen, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact - simply the standard compromise.
