Release year20252024
ProcessorAMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370; 12 cores, 24 threads, 2.0 GHz base, up to 5.1 GHz, 36 MB cache

The processor also contains graphics and AI units; when the discrete GPU is idle, the integrated Radeon graphics drive the screen.

ASUS
Intel Core i9-14900HX: 24 cores, 32 threads, 2.2 GHz base, up to 5.8 GHz, 36 MB cache ASUS
AI unit (NPU)AMD XDNA NPU, up to 50 TOPS

The NPU handles AI tasks such as background blur or captions in Windows at low power. TOPS means trillions of operations per second.

GraphicsNVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Laptop GPU, 8 GB GDDR7; 1737 MHz at 90 W in Turbo mode (75 W + 15 W Dynamic Boost)

The same GPU can run at up to 115 W in thicker laptops, so this thin-chassis version should be expected to perform lower. The GPU is soldered.

ASUS
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop GPU, 8 GB GDDR6; ROG Boost 2225 MHz at 140 W (115 W + 25 W Dynamic Boost)

140 W is the top of NVIDIA’s allowed power range for the RTX 4070 Laptop GPU; the 25 W Dynamic Boost share moves to the GPU when CPU load is low. The GPU is soldered to the board.

ASUS
Display14-inch 3K (2880 × 1800) 16:10 OLED ROG Nebula Display; 120 Hz, DCI-P3 100%, Pantone Validated, anti-reflection coating

On OLED each pixel makes its own light, so blacks turn fully off. DCI-P3 100% means it covers the whole cinema color space; Pantone validation is a factory color-accuracy check.

ASUS
18-inch ROG Nebula, 2560 × 1600 (16:10), IPS-level, 240 Hz, 3 ms; 100% DCI-P3; G-Sync; Pantone Validated; anti-glare

240 Hz shows motion more smoothly and with less blur in fast games; G-Sync matches the refresh to the frame rate to reduce tearing.

ASUS
Memory32 GB LPDDR5X-7500 soldered to the board; 32 GB maximum

Memory cannot be upgraded later; the right capacity must be chosen at purchase.

ASUS
32 GB (2 × 16 GB DDR5-5600 SO-DIMM); 2 SO-DIMM slots, dual channel

Because both slots are filled, upgrading means replacing the installed modules; memory speed depends on the processor’s support.

ASUS
Storage1 TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 SSD; 1 × M.2 slot

With a single slot, adding capacity means replacing the SSD.

ASUS
2 TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 SSD; 2 M.2 PCIe slots in total (including the one in use) ASUS
Ports1 × USB4 Type-C (DisplayPort, power delivery, 40 Gbps), 1 × USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C (DisplayPort, power delivery, G-SYNC, 10 Gbps), 2 × USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A, 1 × HDMI 2.1 FRL, microSD (UHS-II) card reader, 1 × 3.5 mm audio

There is no Ethernet port. ASUS states support for the XG Mobile GC34 external GPU.

ASUS
1 × Thunderbolt 4 (40 Gb/s, DisplayPort); 1 × USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C (DisplayPort, charging, G-SYNC); 2 × USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A; HDMI 2.1 FRL; RJ45 LAN; 3.5 mm combo audio

USB-C charging is supported only on the USB 3.2 Gen 2 port; the Thunderbolt 4 port does not take charge. There is no SD card reader.

ASUS
WirelessWi‑Fi 7 (802.11be, tri-band) 2 × 2; Bluetooth 5.4

Wi‑Fi 7’s wide channels and multi-link features need a compatible router.

ASUS
Wi‑Fi 6E (802.11ax, tri-band) 2×2 ASUS
Battery and power73 Wh, 4-cell lithium-ion; 200 W adapter (rectangular connector), USB-C charging

The Type-C ports support power input; full GPU power needs the 200 W adapter.

ASUS
90 Wh, 4-cell lithium-ion; 280 W adapter with round (ø6.0) plug; a 100 W USB-C adapter is also listed

Which adapter is in the box varies by country. Performance is limited when charging over USB-C.

ASUS
