Get ready for a tech treat this August as ASUS brings two powerhouse laptops to Singapore: the TUF Gaming A14 and the ROG Zephyrus G16. Both machines promise to deliver top-tier performance and advanced AI capabilities, making them perfect for gamers and creators alike.
ROG Zephyrus G16: Sleek, AI-Powered Beast
The new ROG Zephyrus G16 is a game-changer, combining cutting-edge AI technology with a sleek design. At its core is the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 processor, featuring 12 cores, 24 threads, and a built-in NPU capable of 50 TOPS of AI performance. This makes the Zephyrus G16 an AI powerhouse, perfect for gaming and productivity tasks. The laptop also comes with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 GPU, capable of up to 321 TOPS of AI performance, so whether you’re a photographer, a video editor or a coder, this laptop does it all.
The Zephyrus G16, similar to the previous G14, features an OLED display with a 2.5K resolution and a 240 Hz refresh rate, ensuring stunning visuals whether you’re gaming or creating content. The ultra-sleek 1.49 cm chassis houses a robust cooling system with liquid metal on the CPU and a new fibre-and-mesh heat-pipe system, ensuring the laptop stays cool under pressure.
With 32GB of LPDDR5X memory and support for the new SD Express 7.0 standard, the Zephyrus G16 is built for speed and efficiency. It also supports WiFi 7, offering higher speeds and less congestion—no more stuttering streams or missing that headshot because of ping difference.
TUF Gaming A14: Portable Powerhouse
The ASUS TUF Gaming A14 brings powerful performance in a new, ultraportable 14-inch form factor. Weighing just 1.46 kg and measuring 1.69 cm thick, the A14 is perfect whether you’re using it to grind your Genshin Impact dailies or to edit a quick video. Despite its compact size, it packs a punch with an AMD Ryzen 9 AI HX 370 processor and up to an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop GPU.
The A14 features a 2.5K 165 Hz display, providing excellent visuals with fast response times. The laptop also offers dual-channel LPDDR5 memory and two M.2 2280 SSD slots, allowing for easy upgrades and expansion. With USB power delivery, the A14 ensures you can charge your devices on the go so you won’t ever have to worry about a flat battery.
