16-inch FHD+ 165 Hz IPS display driven by an Intel Core i7-14650HX and GeForce RTX 5060 with 8 GB GDDR7, 32 GB DDR5 5600 memory and a 1 TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD, plus HDMI 2.1, Wi-Fi 6E and RGB keyboard
The ASUS TUF Gaming F16 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 carrying 8 GB of GDDR7 memory. A 165 Hz IPS panel at 1920 x 1200 resolution provides smooth motion, while 32 GB of DDR5 5600 RAM and a 1 TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD handle memory and storage duties. Windows 11 Home ships pre-installed.
This machine suits players who value high frame rates at 1080p-level resolution in shooters or MOBA titles, and creators who need strong multi-threaded CPU performance for compiling or rendering. The 165 Hz G-SYNC display and RTX 5060 combination targets 1080p gaming with DLSS upscaling. Buyers needing a 4K panel, wider than 100 percent sRGB coverage, or a larger chassis for extended thermal headroom should look at other models.
The single specification that decides whether this is the right part is the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 with 8 GB of GDDR7 video memory. That GPU tier targets high-refresh 1080p gaming with DLSS 4 support, and it determines the practical ceiling for texture-heavy titles and ray-traced effects. If your workload demands more VRAM or higher raster performance, a higher-tier GPU is required; if 1080p high-refresh is the target, this configuration matches it.

Any monitor or TV with an HDMI 2.1 input will work. The laptop's port supports the full 2.1 specification for high-refresh 4K or 1080p signals.
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 connect without adapters.
Open Settings > System > Display > Advanced display and verify 165 Hz is selected. Then open the NVIDIA Control Panel, enable G-SYNC, and the on-screen indicator will confirm it is running.
