As December comes into play, we are getting a series of leak about the upcoming Ryzen 5000H gaming processors launching next month. Its been few hours since I wrote about the upcoming Ryzen 9 5900HX, which has also been found on an ASUS gaming laptop and will be the first overclockable CPU on a laptop.
Now, it turns out, upcoming ASUS laptops have been totally leaked by @momomo_us, and the last year’s flagship laptop will be treated quite well by the Taiwan giant. The much loved ROG Zephyrus G14 will be upgraded with a new 8 core, 16 threaded Ryzen 9 5900HS, which comes with 3.1GHz clock speed and 4.5GHz max turbo.

These are some minor improvements in clock speeds as now you have 100MHz more for the base clock speeds and a 200MHz increase in boost frequencies. Yes, as it’s based on Zen 3 architecture, it will have major improvements in single-core performance that helps in gaming and is somehow dependent on the cache redesign.
Also, the L3 cache has been upgraded to 16MB and as a whole, the gaming performance is already evident on the new Ryzen 5000 series processors, so expect similar kind of improvements although still being as efficient as last-gen.
The upcoming Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 has been spotted with 32GB 3200MHz DDR4 SDRAM, where one is upgradable, and the other is soldered. It is paired with a 1TB SSD, and I hope they provide faster SSDs than last-gen; well, you won’t have to wait much as CES 2021 seems fun and interesting!
