ROG Strix G16 16-inch gaming laptop

The ASUS ROG Strix G16 is a 16-inch gaming laptop built around an Intel Core i7-14650HX processor with 16 cores and 24 threads. It pairs that CPU with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 laptop GPU equipped with 8GB of GDDR7 memory. A 165Hz FHD+ display and 16GB of DDR5 memory complete the core specification for competitive play and content creation.

Upgrade from 60Hz panels or older mobile GPUs

Moving from a 60Hz screen to the 165Hz panel makes motion visibly smoother in fast-paced titles. The RTX 5060 with GDDR7 lifts frame rates above what previous-generation mobile graphics could sustain at 1920 x 1200. The jump is worth it when you need higher refresh rates and modern GPU features without stepping up to a larger chassis.

Fits a portable battle-station

The chassis measures 13.94 x 10.55 x .9 inches and weighs 5.83 pounds, so it slips into a standard 16-inch backpack sleeve. Three superspeed USB Type-A ports, two superspeed USB Type-C ports, HDMI and RJ-45 handle peripherals and wired networking without dongles. Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth keep the desk clear of cables while the 2TB PCIe SSD stores a large game library.
