Out of the box your ROG Ally has three Asus-set performance profiles, aka Operating Modes: Silent, Performance and Turbo. You also have two secondary options: Windows, which defaults to whatever power settings you've set in Windows 11, and Manual, which lets you set custom performance settings.

The Z13 supports USB-C Power Delivery for charging, but that won’t be powerful enough to allow its full performance under load. Instead, it comes with a 200W power adapter that uses Asus’ proprietary and reversible slim power jack — like on its recent laptops.

You’ll have to pay a pretty penny to get your hands on a tablet with a Strix Halo processor though – the new Asus ROG Flow Z13 is expected to sell for around $2,000 and up. While the new model has integrated graphics that should be more powerful than many discrete GPUs,

The original ROG Flow Z13 was always a bit of an odd machine. It felt like the strange lovechild between a Surface Pro and a traditional gaming laptop. But at CES 2025, ASUS is giving the tablet a much needed refresh that includes a massive performance boost thanks to the company’s updated XG Mobile graphics dock.

I like the idea of a gaming tablet, but between the price and practicality, is it really a good idea to bring the Asus ROG Flow Z13 back?
