Asus has introduced the 2026 ROG Zephyrus G14 (GU405) to the UK market, bringing Intel’s new Panther Lake platform to its 14-inch gaming lineup. First shown at CES 2026, the model featured the latest and greatest hardware from Intel and Nvidia, offered in multiple configurations.

All variants are powered by the Intel Core Ultra 9 386H processor with 16 cores, paired with 32GB LPDDR5X 8533 RAM. The chip includes an NPU rated at up to 50 TOPS, 18MB cache, and boost speeds up to 4.9GHz. Storage options include 1TB or 2TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSDs.

The laptop retains a 14-inch 3K OLED display with a 2880 x 1800 resolution and 120Hz refresh rate. Asus has increased peak brightness to 1,100 nits. The panel supports ROG Nebula HDR, G-Sync, Pantone validation, and includes a MUX switch with Advanced Optimus.

Graphics options include the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 (8GB GDDR7), RTX 5070 Ti (12GB GDDR7), and RTX 5080 (16GB GDDR7). All GPUs now run at higher power levels than the 2025 model. The RTX 5070 increases to 90W plus 15W Dynamic Boost, while the RTX 5070 Ti and RTX 5080 move to 100W plus 15W. Turbo clocks reach up to 1595MHz on the 5070, 1812MHz on the 5070 Ti, and 1550MHz on the 5080, each at 115W. To support this, Asus includes a 250W power adapter, which is 50W higher than before. The system is backed by a 73Wh battery.

Three configurations are available. The base model, priced at £2,899.99, includes the RTX 5070, 1TB storage, weighs 1.50kg, and has a thickness of 1.59 to 1.63 cm. The mid-tier RTX 5070 Ti model costs £3,099.99, weighs 1.58kg, and measures 1.59 to 1.83 cm.
