ASUS is ahead of everyone, announcing that at Computex 2017, it will showcase the first gaming laptop from the ASUS RoG family, with an AMD APU based on CPUAMD Ryzen and AMD Vega GPUs.

The arrival of AMD Ryzen processors on the market has meant a turnaround in the monopoly situation of Intel, which until the arrival of Ryzen did not have the least competition from AMD. Now we just need to see the arrival of the Ryzen 3 and the APUs based on AMD Ryzen and AMD Vega, called Raven Ridge. During the AMD Financial Analyst Day, some data was revealed about the new series of Ryzen processors for the mobile sector, which would have Zen-based CPU cores and Vega-based GPU cores, in addition to offering an improvement in the power efficiency of up to 50%, according to data from AMD.

Well, ASUS has been the first to move a tab and has started the leaks, in this case ASUS has shown a teaser in which you can see the first Ryzen-based laptop, which could be ready to be shown at Computex 2017 and that in its guts it would incorporate a Ryzen APU. This laptop, we can see that it has the RoG logo, so clearly we are dealing with a team intended for gaming.

AMD seems to have made a leap in the laptop processor space, not just with the power of Ryzen, but with energy efficiency, an area in which it has lagged Intel for quite some time. The combination of Ryzen and Vega in a single chip can be deadly for Intel, which may see its market share fall significantly. The truth is that the announcement of ASUS is very good, but the truth is that it does not say anything about this platform, so we will have to wait for Computex 2017, to see how powerful this laptop is.
