16-inch 2.5K 240Hz gaming laptop

The ASUS ROG Strix G16 pairs a 16.0-inch IPS-level panel at 2560 x 1600 resolution with a 240Hz refresh rate and 3ms response time. An Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX processor with 24 cores and a 5.4 GHz turbo frequency drives the system alongside an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 GPU equipped with 8GB GDDR7 memory. The 16:10 aspect ratio and 100% DCI-P3 coverage suit competitive gaming and colour-critical work alike.

Sustained load behaviour with 64GB DDR5

Sixty-four gigabytes of DDR5 memory and a 2TB PCIe SSD feed the 24-core processor and RTX 5070 without bottlenecks during extended sessions. The 36MB cache and high turbo frequency help maintain consistent frame rates when thermal limits are reached. Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4 keep network latency low for multiplayer matches or large asset transfers over long periods.

Chassis, ports and daily connectivity

The Eclipse Gray chassis measures 13.94 x 10.55 x 0.9 inches and weighs 5.84 pounds, offering a portable footprint for a 16-inch class machine. A Thunderbolt 4 port, HDMI 2.1, USB-C 3.2 and three USB-A 3.2 ports cover external displays, storage and peripherals. An RJ45 LAN jack adds wired stability, while the backlit keyboard and integrated webcam support late-night gaming and video calls.

Questions about this item

How loud or hot does the Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX get during all-day gaming sessions?

The 24-core processor runs up to 5.4 GHz and the RTX 5070 8 GB GDDR7 draws power under load, so expect noticeable fan noise and warm chassis temperatures during extended play.

Which external display cables or docks must I already own to use the Thunderbolt 4 and HDMI 2.1 ports?

You need a Thunderbolt 4-certified cable or dock for the USB-C port and an HDMI 2.1 cable for the HDMI output to drive high-refresh external monitors.

Will my older USB-A 3.0 peripherals work with the three USB-A 3.2 ports on this laptop?

Yes, the three USB-A 3.2 ports are backward compatible with USB 3.0 and 2.0 devices, so existing mice, keyboards and drives will connect without adapters.
