ASUS built a custom vapor chamber here to cover nearly 50% of the motherboard, and it uses a Graphite Nano insulation layer between the board and the OLED display.

They're available in touch with pen support and non-touch options. These OLED screens otherwise offer a smooth 120Hz refresh rate, a fast 0.2ms response time, an
