It serves no functional purpose and is completely superfluous (especially in lockdown when you have no chance to use your computer in public), but we still find it supercool: the Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 can be configured with a LED dot-matrix display hidden in its lid, with a new model costing UDS2,000. This “AniMe Matrix” display consists of 1,215 Mini-LEDs that support 256 levels of brightness each and can be used to show anything you like, but especially GIF animes. Beyond that, it’s a powerful gaming computer (who else would want an AniMe Matrix?) with a AMD Ryzen 9 4900HS CPU, an Nvidia GeForce RTX 2060 GPU, 16GB of RAM and a 1TB NVMEe M.2 SSD.
