ROG Strix G16 16-inch gaming laptop

The ASUS ROG Strix G16 is a 16-inch Windows 11 laptop built for gaming and content creation. It pairs an Intel Core i7 14650HX processor with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 laptop GPU. The 165 Hz FHD+ display targets competitive play, while the 16-core CPU handles multitasking workloads. Gray chassis with backlit keyboard completes the package.

16 GB DDR5 memory and 2 TB PCIe SSD

Sixteen gigabytes of DDR5 4800 memory and a 2 TB PCIe SSD provide capacity for modern titles and large project files. The memory speed supports the 24-thread processor in productivity tasks, while the solid-state drive keeps load times short. Demanding multi-application workflows or future titles requiring more VRAM may exceed the 8 GB GDDR7 frame buffer. Storage headroom remains generous for most libraries.

Thunderbolt 4 and HDMI 2.1 expand connectivity

A single Thunderbolt 4 port adds 40 Gbps bandwidth for external displays, storage or docks with power delivery and G-SYNC support. HDMI 2.1 FRL enables high-refresh external monitors. Three USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A ports and one Type-C port cover peripherals at 10 Gbps. Wi-Fi 7 and RJ45 LAN supply low-latency networking. No SD card reader is included.
