As gaming laptops become increasingly powerful, Asus' ROG Zephyrus G16 takes the ultra-performance hallmarks of its gaming machines and applies them to a much thicker form factor. This gaming laptop is equipped with the latest in CPU and GPU performance, as well as a curious design which couples a regular laptop-style chassis with a raised keyboard for improved airflow and better thermals. The result is a laptop that can perform better than other, less powerful, gaming laptops, and can do it all while remaining silent and relatively cool.

The most impressive feature of the ROG Zephyrus G16 is its AMD Ryzen 9 5900HS processor. This powerful CPU can handle even the most taxing games thanks to its eight cores and sixteen threads.

In addition to its impressive hardware, the ROG Zephyrus G16 has plenty of features to make your gaming experience comfortable. The laptop’s innovative cooling system helps keep things cool even under load.

The laptop also features a large 15.6" display with a refresh rate of up to 240 Hz for smooth gaming visuals, as well as a 16:10 aspect ratio which allows packing more content onto the screen.

As for the ROG Zephyrus G16’s audio, it is impressive. The laptop’s speaker system is powered by an 1.5W amplifier and two subwoofers. This ensures more powerful, immersive sound, which is great for gaming and movies. Additionally, the laptop has support for Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, and Hi-Res audio for high-quality audio.

Finally, the ROG Zephyrus G16 has a price tag that is surprisingly reasonable for such a powerful machine. At around $1700, it is an excellent value for the performance that it offers. You really can’t go wrong with this laptop.
