Lest you think all the laptops announced at Computex this week are Yoga knockoffs, ASUS has at least one traditional notebook for you. The company has just announced the Zenbook NX500, a 15.6-inch laptop that manages to pack a 4K screen, Core i7 processor and discrete NVIDIA GTX 850 graphics into a relatively thin and light frame. As you can probably tell already, with specs like that, it's more of a MacBook Pro competitor than a typical Ultrabook -- the sort of thing you'd recommend to creative pros who need to get work done on the go. To that end, the screen isn't just high-res, but also uses ASUS' "VisualMaster" display technology, with the color gamut covering 100 percent of the NTSC spectrum and 108 percent of Adobe RGB. No word yet on price or availability (ASUS rarely mentions such details at its press conferences), but we'll update this post if we hear more. In the meantime, stay tuned for hands-on photos.
