About ASUS ROG Strix G16

Power up your play
Draw more frames and win more games with the brand new Strix G16 and Windows 11 Home. Powered by up to a 13th Gen Intel Core i9-13980HX Processor and up to an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050 Laptop GPU boasting a max TGP of 175W with Dynamic Boost, be ready to dominate the competition in all of the latest games. Backed up with a dedicated MUX Switch and NVIDIA Advanced Optimus support, the Strix G16 unlocks the true potential of its hardware. With PCIe Gen4x4 SSD storage and 16GB of 4800MHz DDR5 RAM, large game libraries and intense multitasking sessions are a breeze for this gaming machine.

Do it all
Power through any game or project with an Intel Core i9-13980HX processor, featuring up to a 65W TDP and a hybrid architecture built from the ground up for Windows 11. With up to 8 Performance cores and 16 Efficiency cores, AAA gaming is flawless and streaming is effortless.

GPU Power Unleashed
Top-tier components require power, especially when it comes to maximizing your GPU's performance. Powered by NVIDIA DLSS 3, ultra-efficient Ada Lovelace arch, and Max-Q Technologies, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050 Laptop GPU is fully unleashed with a max TGP of 175W with Dynamic Boost.

NVIDIA Advanced Optimus
With NVIDIA Advanced Optimus, the laptop can automatically route frames from the discrete GPU directly to the display using a MUX switch, bypassing the integrated graphics. This pathing improves performance 5-10% compared to machines without a MUX Switch, making sure you get the absolute best gaming experience-all without needing touch a single button. This automatic switching also preserves your machine's battery life, as it can dynamically transition between the high power discrete GPU and the lower power integrated GPU. No matter what you're doing, your machine will switch to the most optimized mode without you having to lift a finger.

Blazing Fast DDR5 Memory
Leveraging the brand new DDR5 standard, enjoy a huge generational performance jump to 4800MHz, with write times 50% faster than DDR4 equipped machines. This ultra fast memory makes all aspects of the laptop feel snappy, from intense gaming to light web browsing.

Better. Faster. Stronger.
Take on even the largest projects with confidence and a PCIe Gen4 SSD. With raw throughput up to 7000MB/s, massive files and large games will load in the blink of an eye.

You have what it takes to be the best on the battlefield, but are you ready to design the next one

ROG Intelligent Cooling
To accommodate such powerful components, the Strix G16's chassis and motherboard were both redesigned to accommodate our new full-width heatsink, whose fins were moved even closer to the exhaust vents for more efficient cooling. The full-width heatsink is built from three different sections, surrounding the motherboard with densely-packed fins for a total surface area of 174,183sq. mm, a 71% increase from the 2022 Strix G15. This design maximizes the available pathing for hot air to escape the machine and drastically increases overall airflow.

Finally, most gaming laptops have a dual fan cooling system, but the G16 was able to push the performance envelope even further with the introduction of a third fan that helps keep the GPU and VRAM cool. Paired with seven heatpipes and Conductonaut Extreme liquid metal on both the CPU and GPU, the G16's cooling system is a marvel of engineering.

• Tri-Fan Technology
• Full-surround Vents
• Up to 15 Degree C cooler CPU & GPU Temperatures
• Covered by 7 Heatpipes
• Conductonaut extreme

Full-Surround Vents
Hot air needs somewhere to go, so we redesigned the G16's exhaust vents to give it the best flow possible. In addition to making the entire rear of the machine an exhaust vent, the G16 retains its side vents, giving it ample opportunity to move hot air out of the system. We even moved the heatsinks closer to the vents themselves, giving hot air a straight-line path out of the machine and avoid any recirculation.

Full-Width Heatsink
The G16 features 374 heatsink fins, with each stack lined with ultra-thin copper as slim as 0.1mm. This allows for higher density and lower air resistance, providing a total of 174,183 sq. mm of surface area - an increase of 71.26% from the 2022 Strix G15. The new full-width design is double the size of a typical laptop heatsink and covers the entire rear of the machine.

Tri-Fan Technology
At the heart of every great laptop is a great cooling solution. Our new Tri-Fan Technology directs air though precisely calculated cutouts in the chassis, sending airflow directly towards internal components to keep them cool in all conditions. A third auxiliary fan also helps to send additional heat from the GPU directly to the heatsinks, keeping the machine cool during long video renders or gaming sessions.

Conductonaut Extreme Liquid Metal
The 2023 Strix G16 features Thermal Grizzly's cutting-edge Conductonaut Extreme liquid metal, which improves the substance's heat transfer even further. Compared to traditional thermal pastes, this indium- and gallium-based compound offers 17X higher conductivity, in addition to CPU and GPU temperature reductions of up to 15 degrees. Used exclusively by ROG, this material offers the highest thermal transfer available on a laptop.

Up to 7 comprehensive heatpipes
The Strix G16's comprehensive thermal design includes an extended heat spreader that absorbs heat from the CPU, GPU, VRAM, and VRM. With 7 heat pipes and an increase in total coverage from 26% to 33% of the motherboard compared to last generation, this extensive thermal solution helps sustain and extend the overall performance, reliability, and lifespan of the system.

0dB Ambient Cooling
Enjoy truly silent cooling under light workloads with 0dB Technology. In the Silent operating mode, the cooling system switches off all fans during everyday tasks to dissipate heat passively. This lets you concentrate on your work and immerse yourself in movies with less distraction. If CPU or GPU temperatures increase, the fans automatically switch on again.

Dust Filter
First introduced on the 2022 Zephyrus G14, the ROG Strix G16 features a dust filter on its intake vents. Dust and fibers can collect inside the machine, trapping heat and causing degraded performance over time. A filter helps keep dust out, allowing the CPU and GPU to breathe easier for years of smooth and stable operation.

0.1mm ultra thin fin
Thermal energy is dissipated by four heatsinks, each lined with ultrathin copper fins as slim as 0.1mm. These fins are half the size of typical solutions, allowing for higher density for heat dissipation and lower air resistance to allow for smoother flow. With up to 374 heatsink fins totaling 174,183sq. mm of surface area, heat flows out of the system incredibly efficiently, letting your components boost higher, for longer.

CoolZone keyboard
Extended gaming sessions can heat up internal components and make the keyboard warm to the touch. To keep your fingers cool, small vents around the WASD keys let the fans draw cool air into the chassis from above.

Scenario Profiles
Our Silent, Performance, and Turbo modes are just the beginning. Scenario Profiles allow your system to automatically switch between these modes based on the application you're running, alongside other vital system settings. Switch between lighting configurations automatically, disable the Windows key and touchpad during games, and automate to your heart's content. Armoury Crate makes adjustments in an instant to best fit the task at hand.

ROG Nebula Display
You can't beat the enemy if you don't see them coming. The Strix G16 has ultra-fast panel options for every scenario, making sure you'll never miss a moment. For the first time ever, this 16-inch machine offers a QHD 240Hz Nebula display. A 16:10 panel with 500 nits of brightness, 100% DCI-P3 coverage and 3ms response times, the Strix G16 has pixel-perfect precision even in the most frenetic firefights.
