The ASUS ROG Strix GL702ZC is the first Ryzen powered gaming laptop we have seen, featuring the Ryzen 7 1700 desktop CPU along with a 4GB RX580 GPU. This means that the 17.3" IPS 1080p monitor is Freesync capable with a maximum 60Hz refresh rate. That resolution and refresh rate will ensure even AAA titles can play with your graphics settings cranked.

In addition to the previously mentioned components,the GL702ZC ships with 16GB DDR4-2400MHz, a 256GB SATA III SSD, a 1TB 5400rpm HDD, USB 3.1 Gen 2 Type-C connectivity and 802.11ac 2×2 Wi-Fi along with Bluetooth 4.1. The base model retails for a competitive $1500.

PR below the fold.
