At Computex, Asus announced the incredibly slim ROG GX500, boasting it as the "world's thinnest 15-inch gaming notebook." But Asus' new laptop is about more than design, it also happens to include a pixel-packing 4K display, as reported by AnandTech

At 19mm thick, the GX500 is thinner than the sleek MSI GS60 Ghost gaming laptop, while slightly heavier than Apple's 15.4-inch MacBook Pro and MSI's offering at 2.2kg. Within the slim casing is an Intel Core i7 processor, an Nvidia GTX860M GPU, and a dual-fan setup to keep the system cool.The 15.6-inch VisualMaster display packs a resolution of 3,840 x 2,160, trumping the 3,200 x 1,800 screen found on the latest Razer Blade . We ran into issues trying to run graphically intensive games on the GTX870M-equipped Blade at native resolution, so it will be interesting to see how the GX500 performs in the real world.Pricing for the Asus ROG GX500 has yet to be announced, although the company expects to launch the ultra-thin gaming notebook during the third quarter of the year.
