ASUS ROG Zephyrus G14 (2025) GA403WM / Lenovo Legion Pro 7 16IRX9H (83DE0005US)

The processor also contains graphics and AI units; when the discrete GPU is idle, the integrated Radeon graphics drive the screen.

The NPU handles AI tasks such as background blur or captions in Windows at low power. TOPS means trillions of operations per second.

The same GPU can run at up to 115 W in thicker laptops, so this thin-chassis version should be expected to perform lower. The GPU is soldered.

175 W is the highest total graphics power Lenovo allows in this model; going above NVIDIA’s 60–150 W base range for the RTX 4080 Laptop GPU relies on Dynamic Boost 2.0. The desktop RTX 4080 is a different product.

On OLED each pixel makes its own light, so blacks turn fully off. DCI-P3 100% means it covers the whole cinema color space; Pantone validation is a factory color-accuracy check.

DisplayHDR 400 is VESA’s entry-level HDR tier; it does not require local dimming, so HDR looks less striking than on OLED or Mini LED. 240 Hz and G-SYNC give smooth, tear-free motion in fast games. Lenovo notes that “IPS” may also cover similar panel types such as PLS, ADS and AHVA.

Memory cannot be upgraded later; the right capacity must be chosen at purchase.

This configuration ships with a single module, so memory runs single-channel until a matching module is added to the second slot. Lenovo’s 32 GB limit is based on the modules it has tested.

With a single slot, adding capacity means replacing the SSD.

PCIe 4.0 x4 allows up to 8 GB/s in theory; real speed depends on the SSD. There is no card reader.

There is no Ethernet port. ASUS states support for the XG Mobile GC34 external GPU.

140 W charging over USB-C needs Lenovo’s own adapter; other adapters may deliver less. Up to four independent displays including the internal one are supported; Lenovo lists up to 4K/60 Hz for external outputs. Ethernet is 1 Gbit/s, not 2.5G, and supports Wake-on-LAN.

Wi‑Fi 7’s wide channels and multi-link features need a compatible router.

The Type-C ports support power input; full GPU power needs the 200 W adapter.

Lenovo says Super Rapid Charge reaches 30% in 10 minutes, 70% in 30 minutes and 100% in 80 minutes. 99.9 Wh sits just under the usual airline battery limit. Lenovo quotes 10.4 hours of 1080p video playback at 150 nits.

The IR camera enables face-recognition sign-in with Windows Hello.

Liquid metal transfers heat between the chip and cooler more efficiently than standard paste, which makes servicing more delicate.
