Some of them are the upgrade from the previous ROG series, and some others are new devices with new interesting features. I will discuss the two devices from Asus ROG family and in the end session, you can see the photos.

It’s available in three colors options: plasma copper, armor titanium, and lava red. $1400 is the best price for a gaming laptop in Q4 this year.
The other interesting gaming laptop is Asus ROG GX700 with a unique feature, that is the liquid cooled, which can increase the performance up to 80%. This is great!
This liquid cooled can be attached precisely through a port in the back part of the device. The GX700 will feature the mobile K-series Skylake processor much like the G752 and will therefore support overclocking. With the water cooling system, this could make for a pretty powerful laptop. The GX700 will be released in Q4 as well, but the price is not final yet.
Here are the other members of ROG family.
