XPG's splash into the gaming notebook market represents a big move from memory-maker ADATA. The new higher-end Xenia notebook features proprietary hardware including its beefy XPG DDR4 32GB 2666MHz RAM, and ultra-fast SX8200 Pro PCIe Gen3x4 NVMe 1.3 M.2 2280 SSD that can hit up 3.5GB/sec reads and 3GB/sec writes. Chip-wise, ADATA has teamed up with Intel to pack in its Intel Core i7-9750H high-performance graphics notebook CPU. The Xenia has two GPU configs: an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 Max-Q or an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660Ti.

The Xenia has a lightweight chassis complemented by a 15.6-inch 1080p IPS display at 144Hz refresh, complete with a slim 4.9mm bezel. It also sports a fully RGB-lit mechanical keyboard with 100% anti-ghosting, a 10-hour battery, and a 20.5mm-thick chassis that weighs 1.85KG.
