One of our favorite gaming laptops of the year has received a major $300 discount thanks to the Amazon Prime Big Deal Days, bringing the RTX 4060-powered portable powerhouse down to $1,099.99. Yes, the ASUS ROG Strix G16 is now within your reach, bringing in a host of capable internals, along with an re-engineered cooling solution that will tame the temperatures of both the CPU and GPU while letting them run at their maximum capabilities.
In recent AAA titles, such as Silent Hill 2 Remake and God of War Ragnarök, which were recently announced for PC, we noticed that GPUs with 8GB of VRAM ran comfortably with all the visual settings maxed. Throw in a mix of DLSS and Frame Generation goodness that is supported by GPUs like the RTX 4060, and you can take your gaming experience to incredible heights.
The graphics processor is paired with an Intel Core i7-13650HX, which is a 14-core CPU, along with 16GB DDR5 RAM and a 1TB PCIe NVMe Gen 4 SSD. The display is a 165Hz IPS LCD with a 1920 x 1200 resolution, providing increased vertical screen real estate thanks to the 16:10 aspect ratio, which not only makes gaming enjoyable but also helps in productivity. Now, remember when we said that the ROG Strix G16 was one of our favorite gaming laptops? Well, that is thanks to the triple-fan cooling solution that helps to dissipate hot air effectively.
What is even more impressive is that ASUS’ engineers introduced this heatsink array while maintaining all storage and RAM upgrade options. Despite the 16-inch footprint, owners of the ROG Strix G16 have two SODIMM and two PCIe NVMe Gen 4 SSD slots available. The ports selection is stacked on this gaming laptop too, offering a combination of USB-A, USB-C, Thunderbolt 4, HDMI, and Ethernet ports. Overall, it is a solid portable gaming package, and you will not be left disappointed.
Then again, if the laptop version of the RTX 4060 is too limiting for you in terms of performance and budget is of little concern to you, you can upgrade to the RTX 4070 variant of the ROG Strix G16, which comes with a faster processor, and a QHD+ 240Hz screen, for $1,614.99 after a 15 percent discount. Alternatively, the TUF Gaming A16 gaming laptop equipped with a 16-core AMD Ryzen 9 7940HX CPU and the same RTX 4060 GPU is down to $1,099.99, assuming you have an affinity towards machines armed with an AMD processor instead of an Intel one.
