Flow X13 is a difficult laptop to categorise. It has all the form factor hallmarks of a true thin-and-light but ships with a 3,840x2,400 touchscreen and dedicated Nvidia GeForce GTX 1650 Max-Q 4GB graphics.

The latter is reason enough why it bullies the other IGP-only ultraportables on test, though the stress test results are worrying, indicating Asus is trying to cool too much in too thin a chassis.

If you're interested, the laptop scores 3,172 marks in the more difficult Time Spy test. Of course, there's even more potential on tap with the optional eGPU enclosure, which we're testing right now.
