ASUS is updating its 14-inch ROG Zephyrus G14 (GA403) for 2026 with new AMD and Nvidia hardware, keeping the same thin-and-light design but pushing performance a step further, following updates seen in the ASUS ROG Strix G16 2026 with Core Ultra 9 and RTX 5080.
The laptop comes with a 10-core Ryzen AI 9 465 processor with boost clocks up to 5.0GHz, alongside an XDNA NPU rated at up to 50 TOPS, part of the wider AMD Ryzen AI 400 desktop platform rollout. On the graphics side, the laptop moves to Nvidia’s GeForce RTX 5060 with 8GB of GDDR7 memory, replacing the RTX 4060 used in earlier G14 models.
The display offers 14-inch OLED panel with a 2880×1800 resolution and 120Hz refresh rate, similar to panels used in the ASUS ProArt PX13 Ryzen AI Max laptop with OLED display. Peak brightness reaches up to 1100 nits in HDR, with full DCI-P3 coverage and a rated 0.2ms response time.
You will get 32GB of LPDDR5X-7500 memory, with no option to upgrade. For storage, there’s a 1TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD in a single user-replaceable M.2 slot.
Cooling uses a tri-fan setup with revised airflow and liquid metal applied to the CPU.
The laptop weighs 3.31 lbs (1.50 kg) and measures between 1.59 cm and 1.63 cm in thickness. Battery capacity is 73Wh with support for fast charging.
Ports include USB4, USB-C with power delivery and DisplayPort support, two USB-A ports, HDMI 2.1, and a microSD card reader. Wireless connectivity includes Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4.
The configuration keeps the G14 in the premium thin-and-light gaming segment, combining high-end GPU hardware with a compact form factor, similar to devices featured in best gaming laptops under 2500.
ASUS has priced the ROG Zephyrus G14 (2026) GA403 at £2,499 in the UK with 32GB RAM and 1TB storage. Shipping is set to begin on April 6, though availability in other regions hasn’t been confirmed yet.
