ROG G20 features processor options up to a 4th-generation Intel Core i7 processor for unprecedented levels of gaming and multitasking performance allowing users to play games at their highest settings, watch videos in 4K/UHD (ultra-high-definition), and even create websites and 3D models for work.NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760 graphics enable ROG G20 to deliver immersive visuals in WQHD 2560 x 1440 resolution.
