Can't think of a reason!
I've done extensive research over last 6 months for this build but don't have the time to put into it.
Want to give a shout out to "Eric" in CS/Sales had to be the #1 experience ever dealing with anything PC related...
He is expert knowledgeable and not commissioned so the help and knowledge i received there was no incentive for. Because of his knowledge i was able to downgrade some options where not needed and actually get a stronger PC for less money.
You don't see this kind of help in many fields these days especially in the PC world where it's easy to manipulate a consumer so easy with big words or statements that you really aren't that sure of.
GREAT JOB Eric!!! I'm sure i will love my new PC, it's been a long time in the thought process. My build also focused in a niche field but Eric took the time to muddle through possible problems, solutions and options.
I'm sure all other staff there are qualified but i didn't have the opportunity to interact with them.
Give them a call, they can help with your build without the pressure sales we normally encounter today... I will be updating once setup is complete
My PC came built exactly as I expected and it looks gorgeous!! I have gotten so many compliments and it looks great on my desk. A lot of care was put into packing it and making sure I knew how to set it up.
Arrived earlier than expected, and the specs work as advertised.
Support let me know that this PC was in production to be ready to ship again, and said to give it one to two weeks. Instead, it was ready to be shipped just a few days later. Support was responsive with every question I had about the PC, and the PC itself booted right up. Had to reset the PC just because while it's conveniently ready to go right when you boot it up, I wanted to begin from a fresh reset and encountered zero problems while doing so. I've only had my first full day with this PC at the time of this review, but after four hours of use it runs cool so your room won't turn into an oven and it's working as advertised which is all you can really ask for.
I’ve had my Focus Ghost pre build for a week and I am loving it so much. It runs almost every game at Ultra graphics. VR ready also, and I have had no problems playing with VR. Super fast and really well built! Just wish there was more information in the box
The filter options help narrow down to a couple different options. Then each model has its own list of options where you pick out exactly what you one for your set up. Great user interface

Fast, Fluid, Flexible.
Our first 13-inch gaming device embodies versatility, changing form freely on a slick 360° hinge. Textured lines across the chassis strengthen its structure and add grip for easy carrying, with styling inspired by the gravitational waves of stellar objects. ROG easter eggs are hidden across the chassis, and triangular design accents reflect the rebelliousness of the Flow family. A low-profile chassis design, even smaller than last year, slips easily into crowded bags, leaving more room for your favorite gaming gears.

The XG Mobile features an NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 4090 Laptop GPU with a max TGP of 150W, allowing you to transform your Flow X13 from a mobile gaming laptop to a true battlestation.
Crystal clear gaming
Play your way with two brilliant panel options. Choose between a QHD 165Hz Nebula Display or a Full HD 120Hz panel with 100% sRGB. Both options support G-SYNC and NVIDIA Advanced Optimus, feature an extra tall 16:10 aspect ratio, and boast an 85% screen-to-body ratio. They’re protected from scratching and wear and tear with a Corning Gorilla Glass DXC coating, are Pantone® Validated, and support Dolby Vision HDR for vibrant, true-to-life content.
High efficiency flow
The Flow X13 utilizes the most advanced ROG Intelligent Cooling technology to keep temperatures under control despite having such a compact chassis. Liquid metal thermal compound on the CPU, 3 dedicated heatsinks, and slimmer heatpipes allow the X13 to run cool even during extended gaming sessions.
Travel anywhere
This year’s Flow X13 is more portable than ever, with a 10mm shorter footprint than previous models. At just 16.7mm thick and weighing only 1.3 kilograms, the X13 can easily fit into most bags and purses, while still leaving room for the rest of your daily essentials. USB-C fast charging can recharge from 0-50% in just 30 minutes. If you need to game on the go and don’t want to be tied to the wall charger, the X13 is here for you.
Compact convenience
The X13 may be a small device, but it’s equipped with some creature comforts you might expect on bigger machines. With a 15-inch keyboard layout, 56% bigger touchpad, Wi-Fi 6E and a 3DNR Full HD IR camera with Windows Hello support you can work and play anywhere.
Pump up the volume
Whether you’re gaming or working, quality audio can make all the difference. With Dolby Atmos surround sound, the X13 can create soundscapes that belie its small size. A 3D array microphone can capture your voice clearly no matter where you’re positioned, and Two-Way AI Noise Cancelation filters both incoming and outgoing audio for background noise. Whether there is a lawnmower or vacuum cleaner on your end or theirs, you’ll only hear the voices on the call.
Ditch the dongles
Staying connected is more important than ever, so the X13 is equipped with plenty of ports. Connect your favorite peripherals with USB 4.0 and USB 3.2 Gen2 ports, one of which is Type-C and also supports DisplayPort and power delivery. Access your files quickly from a dedicated Micro SD card reader 4.0, and connect directly to a monitor with a dedicated HDMI 2.1 port. For uncompromised audio, a 3.5mm headphone jack is also available, making the X13 a great all-around traveling companion.

I was on the fence about this computer until it went on sale, which pushed me in the right direction. I'm happy I did. It's a unique product as it's the only small convertible PC that can game. It works well. It's slightly modified by XoticPC so they tested before they sent it to me. arrived. XoticPC has good customer service as well.

Extremely happy
I was on the fence with this laptop until it went on sale, which pushed me over the ledge. I'm very happy that I did. This is a truly unique product-the only small, convertible laptop that can game on the market. Since this one is slightly modified by XoticPC, it was tested before being sent out. XoticPC has good customer service as well.

Love this machine
There is no other laptop this small and versatile that can play graphically intensive games. It came tested by XoticPC and works perfectly. I ordered an X13 before this one, but it had a small problem and they took it back no problem.
My PC came built exactly as I expected and it looks gorgeous!! I have gotten so many compliments and it looks great on my desk. A lot of care was put into packing it and making sure I knew how to set it up.
Arrived earlier than expected, and the specs work as advertised.
