COOLING - Stand tall and breathe deep
Despite having a Core™ i9 CPU and an RTX™ 4050 GPU, the Z13's ultra-compact form factor allows it to have more cooling space than traditional gaming laptops. Its tablet form factor does not require a hinge, allowing us to use much larger fans and a wider vapor chamber than the Z13's size would suggest. And because the Z13's heat-generating components stand high above the desk when in operation, they receive more fresh air than standard laptops. Combined with 0dB technology, this means that the Z13 is completely silent during light computing and remains incredibly quiet even under full load.
- Heat Dissipation Area 50% more with vapor chamber
- noise level <40dB under full load
- 0dB Ambient Cooling Technology
- Arc Flow Fans™ cooling design
- 0.1mm Ultra-thin fin
- Liquid metal
Keep your CPU cool with Liquid Metal
The 2023 Flow Z13 features Thermal Grizzly's liquid metal, which improves heat transfer from the CPU. Compared to traditional thermal pastes, this compound can reduce temperatures up to 13 degrees thanks to much of its higher thermal conductivity.
Vapor chamber cooling
The Z13 also comes with a vapor chamber, which has significantly more surface area than a standard heatpipe design. This also allows the cooling to make contact with multiple heat sources like the CPU, GPU, and VRM, so the Flow Z13 can maintain excellent thermals despite its small chassis.
Whisper-quiet fans
Updated Arc Flow Fans™ feature curved blades specially shaped to maximize airflow with minimal noise. Our variable thickness design can get as thin as 0.1mm at the base of the fans before expanding toward the tip. This reduces turbulence as the fan blades accelerate air with centrifugal force, giving you a quieter overall experience.
0dB Ambient Cooling
Enjoy truly silent cooling under light workloads with 0dB Ambient Cooling. In the Silent operating mode, the cooling system switches off all fans during everyday tasks to dissipate heat passively. This lets you concentrate on your work and immerse yourself in movies with less distraction. If CPU or GPU temperatures increase, the fans automatically switch on again.
0.1mm ultra thin fins for the win
Thermal energy is dissipated by two exhaust vents, each lined with ultra-thin copper fins as slim as 0.1mm. These fins are half the size of typical solutions, whose higher density allows for more effective heat dissipation and lower air resistance. The Flow Z13 sports up to 108 heatsink fins, totaling 34,692.4mm² of surface area.
Scenario Profiles give you the right cooling at the right time
Our Silent, Performance, and Turbo modes are just the beginning. Scenario Profiles allow your system to automatically switch between presets based on the application you're running, alongside other vital system settings. Switch between lighting configurations automatically, disable the Windows key and touchpad during games, and automate to your heart's content. Armoury Crate makes adjustments in an instant to best fit the task at hand.

Displays with complete DCI-P3 coverage offer a wide color gamut and rich color, and let you see films and other media exactly the way they were meant to be experienced.
Dolby Vision® Technology
Scene to scene, frame to frame, Dolby Vision® makes media look better. This technology improves on standard high dynamic range (HDR) 4K video, dynamically adjusting visuals to make every image in front of you richer, brighter, and livelier. Creators can film and edit their streams, videos, and other content in a format commonly used by industry professionals.
NVIDIA G-SYNC
Nothing breaks in-game immersion like stuttering and tearing. GPUs render frames at variable rates, but displays usually refresh at a constant clip, so they can get out of sync, causing visible hitching and artifacts that pull you out of the action. With NVIDIA® G-SYNC, the refresh rate of the display synchronizes with the GPU's frame rate to eliminate visual tearing, minimize stuttering, and reduce input lag. Get ready to experience gameplay that looks and feels more natural than ever.

When travelling overseas there are legal limits on the amount of duty free alcohol and other goods you can take with you. These amounts will vary depending on the country you are flying into. We always recommend you check the latest limits and exemptions.
