With PCIe Gen4x4 SSD storage and up to 32GB 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™ 4080 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.

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 174,183mm², 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.

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.

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.

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. The Strix G16 is also available with a Full HD 165Hz panel, with each option offering fantastic colour, Dolby Vision, Adaptive-Sync support, and an 90% screen-to-body ratio for a stellar gaming and viewing experience.

Designed to Win.Built for Victory

The Republic of Gamers was built by those who love to play video games. All ROG designs come with gamers in mind, from the chassis, lighting integration, software controls, and macro functions. These ROG exclusive design features not only give you a competitive advantage, but they make sure you never blend in with the crowd.

Press the Attack

The difference between victory and defeat can be separated by a single keystroke, so the Strix G16 has a full-size keyboard designed to secure the win. Overstroke technology offers sublime work and play, reducing key actuation and improving responsiveness. Built with gamers in mind, the keyboard features spaced function keys for intuitive identification and dedicated hotkeys for quick access to essential commands. Large arrow keys allow for more accurate control in the heat of battle. A larger touchpad means easier tracking across all of your applications, while per-key RGB lighting lets you choose from millions of colours on every key for endless customization. You can also create game specific layouts via Armoury Crate, making every game feel unique.

Colorize Your Life

Not every gamer is the same, so the Strix G16 comes in two colours to better reflect your sensibilities. For a more stealth look, the classic Eclipse Gray keeps the true power of your machine under wraps. For those who enjoy making a statement, Volt Green is a bold choice that stands out from the crowd.

Studio-Quality Sound

Dual Dolby Atmos-powered speakers create an authentic sound stage for your games. Hi-Res audio ensures you hear your music in the same quality it was recorded. Two-Way AI Noise Cancelation processes both incoming and outgoing audio to filter any errant background noises, making sure that your calls, chats and streams come through without distraction.

Two-Way Ai Noise Cancelation

Our advanced Two-Way AI Noise Cancelation technology runs on the CPU, which frees up the GPU to hit higher FPS. It works with any input device and also with downstream connections, letting you remove noise from both your own mic input and from incoming feeds. Noise-cancelling settings can even be customized per program, filtering specific apps like voice chat without affecting game audio you want to remain untouched.

Immersive Sound

Richer audio draws you more deeply into gameplay and media. Virtual 5.1.2-channel surround sound powered by Dolby Atmos enhances spatial immersion with more nuanced, layered sound effects that you can optimize with specially tuned preset modes for movies and games.

All Day Endurance

The Strix G16 is ready to go the distance. Featuring a 90Wh battery, the laptop can easily browse the web for hours away from the wall before needing a recharge. For flexibility on the go, USB Type-C charging is supported up to 100W. When charging using the supplied 330W power adapter, the G16 can recharge from zero to 50% in just 30 minutes.

Stay Connected

In modern multiplayer games, a stable internet connection is imperative. The Strix G16 is ready to join the fight with a dedicated RJ45 port, as well as the latest Wi-Fi 6E wireless standard. On Wi-Fi 6E supported networks, enjoy access to the newest wireless band, free from clutter and interference from your home's other wireless devices, ensuring you never lag out again.
