16-inch FHD+ 165Hz gaming laptop
The ASUS ROG Strix G16 is a 16-inch Windows 11 Pro gaming laptop built around a 13th Gen Intel Core i5-13450HX 10-core processor that reaches 4.6 GHz. It pairs 64GB of DDR5 memory with a 4TB PCIe SSD and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 GPU equipped with 8GB of GDDR7 video memory. The 1920 x 1200 IPS-level anti-glare panel runs at 165Hz with a 3ms response time.
Thunderbolt 4 and HDMI 2.1 external display limits
Thunderbolt 4 provides DisplayPort and power delivery for a single external monitor, while the HDMI 2.1 FRL port drives one additional display at high refresh rates. The USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C port also supports DisplayPort and power delivery. Wired networking uses a 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ45 LAN port, and wireless connectivity relies on Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be) triple-band 2x2 with Bluetooth 5.4.
RTX 5050 8GB GDDR7 graphics decides fit
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 laptop GPU with 8GB of GDDR7 memory is the single specification that determines whether this system matches the buyer's performance target. It defines the rendering ceiling for the 165Hz panel and for any external displays connected through Thunderbolt 4 or HDMI 2.1.

Questions about this item
Will this laptop drive two external 4K monitors at the same time?
Yes. Thunderbolt 4 and USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C both carry DisplayPort, and HDMI 2.1 FRL adds a third video path, so two 4K screens can run together.
Can I upgrade the memory later if 64 GB turns out not to be enough?
The 64 GB DDR5 is installed in the two SO-DIMM slots, so further expansion would require replacing the existing modules.
What do I need to get the 165 Hz refresh rate on the built-in screen?
Nothing extra. The 16-inch 1920 x 1200 IPS-level panel runs at 165 Hz natively under Windows 11 Pro.
