Release year20252024
ProcessorIntel Core Ultra 7 255HX; 20 cores / 20 threads, 2.4 GHz base, up to 5.2 GHz, 30 MB cache; Intel AI Boost NPU (up to 13 TOPS) ASUSIntel Core i7-13650HX; 14 cores (6 P + 8 E), 20 threads, up to 4.9 GHz

HX processors are high-power mobile chips; sustained power and fan noise depend on Lenovo’s power modes.

Lenovo
GraphicsNVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Laptop GPU; 8 GB GDDR7; ROG Boost 1610 MHz at 115 W (100 W + 15 W Dynamic Boost)

115 W is the highest total power the GPU can draw: 15 W of Dynamic Boost is added to the 100 W base limit when the processor is lightly loaded. 1610 MHz is the 1560 MHz boost clock plus a 50 MHz factory overclock. GPUs in the stronger G615 versions go up to 140 W.

ASUS
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop GPU; 8 GB GDDR6; 115 W TGP with the 230 W adapter, 105 W with the 170 W adapter

TGP is the sustained power limit given to the GPU; on the same GPU a higher TGP usually means higher gaming performance. Lenovo ties TGP on this platform to the wattage of the bundled adapter.

Lenovo
Display16-inch FHD+ 16:10 (1920 × 1200) IPS-level, anti-glare; 165 Hz; 3 ms; 100% sRGB

165 Hz means smooth motion up to 165 frames per second; the 3 ms response time describes how fast pixels change colour. The family also includes 2.5K 240 Hz versions; this SKU uses the FHD+ panel.

ASUS
15.6-inch FHD (1920 × 1080) IPS, 144 Hz, 300 nits, 100% sRGB, anti-glare; NVIDIA G-SYNC

144 Hz shows smooth motion up to 144 frames per second in games; G-SYNC matches the refresh to the GPU’s frame rate to reduce tearing.

Lenovo
Memory16 GB DDR5-5600 SO-DIMM; two SO-DIMM slots, up to 64 GB, dual-channel capable

This SKU has a single 16 GB module; adding a second module lets the memory run in dual channel. Memory speed may vary with what the processor supports.

ASUS
24 GB DDR5-4800 (2 × 12 GB SODIMM); two slots, up to 32 GB

Memory is not soldered; both slots come filled, so an upgrade means replacing both modules. The 32 GB limit is Lenovo’s platform statement.

Lenovo
Storage512 GB PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 SSD; two M.2 PCIe slots

Both SSD slots use the screwless Q-Latch retainer. ASUS says both slots are PCIe Gen 5 ready; the bundled SSD is PCIe 4.0.

ASUS
1 TB M.2 2242 PCIe 4.0 NVMe QLC SSD; two M.2 PCIe 4.0 x4 slots

The second M.2 slot allows an extra SSD. QLC flash can slow down sooner than TLC during long, large writes.

Lenovo
Ports3 × USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A (10 Gbit/s); 1 × USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C (10 Gbit/s, DisplayPort, power delivery, G-Sync); 1 × Thunderbolt 4 (DisplayPort, power delivery); HDMI 2.1 FRL; RJ45; 3.5 mm audio

G-Sync support is listed on the USB-C port, so that is the port to use for variable refresh on an external monitor.

ASUS
1 × USB-C 10 Gbps (USB PD 65–100 W input, DisplayPort 1.4); 3 × USB-A 5 Gbps; HDMI 2.1; RJ-45 gigabit Ethernet; 3.5 mm headphone/mic

Charging over USB-C works, but 140 W input needs Lenovo’s own adapter; the slim-tip port remains the main power input for gaming. There is no Thunderbolt or USB4.

CoolingEnd-to-end vapor chamber, sandwiched heatsink, tri-fan; Conductonaut Extreme liquid metal on the CPU

According to ASUS, liquid metal is applied to the GPU only on RTX 5080 and RTX 5070 Ti versions, so this RTX 5060 version has none on the GPU. Hot air exits behind the hinge.
