16-inch WUXGA 165 Hz gaming laptop

The ASUS ROG Strix G16 G615JHR is a 16-inch gaming laptop built around a 14th Generation Intel Core i7-14650HX processor with 16 cores and 24 threads. It pairs that CPU with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 graphics card carrying 8 GB of GDDR7 video memory. The 1920 x 1200 IPS-level display runs at 165 Hz for smooth motion in fast-paced titles. Windows 11 Pro comes pre-installed.

Thermal Grizzly and Gelid TIM upgrades

HIDevolution applies Thermal Grizzly Conductonaut liquid metal to the CPU and Gelid GC Extreme paste to the GPU before the unit ships. This re-paste is performed by the builder, so the buyer does not need to open the chassis or risk voiding coverage. The only common issue is the 2-5 working day lead time required for this customisation work to be completed and tested.

4 TB PCIe 4.0 storage and DDR5 memory

Two 2 TB M.2 PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe SSDs give 4 TB of total capacity with sequential speeds suited to sustained read and write workloads. System memory is 16 GB of DDR5 5600 MHz in dual-channel configuration. The combination keeps large asset streaming and background tasks flowing without bottlenecks during extended sessions.

Questions about this item

Will the 16 GB DDR5 5600 MHz memory support heavy multitasking and modern games?

The 16 GB dual-channel kit handles current titles and multitasking well; the board accepts DDR5 modules if you need more capacity later.

Does the 4 TB PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe storage arrive as a single drive or split across two slots?

It is configured as two 2 TB M.2 drives, occupying both PCIe 4.0 x4 slots for maximum throughput.

How does the thermal-paste upgrade affect CPU and GPU temperatures under load?

Thermal Grizzly Conductonaut on the CPU and Gelid GC Extreme on the GPU lower peak temperatures compared with stock paste, sustaining higher boost clocks longer.
