Release year20242024
ProcessorIntel Core Ultra 9 185H; 16 cores, 22 threads, 2.3 GHz base, up to 5.1 GHz, 24 MB cache; Intel AI Boost NPU (up to 11 TOPS)

The NPU is a separate unit for running AI tasks at low power. Intel lists 45 W base and 115 W maximum turbo power for this processor.

ASUS		AMD Ryzen 7 8845HS: 8 cores, 16 threads, 3.8 GHz, up to 5.1 GHz, 24 MB cache; AMD XDNA NPU up to 16 TOPS

The NPU is a dedicated unit for running some Windows AI features without loading the CPU or GPU. ASUS also sells this chassis in Ryzen 9 8945H SKUs.

ASUS
GraphicsNVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop GPU, 8 GB GDDR6; ROG Boost 1940 MHz at 100 W (85 W + 15 W Dynamic Boost)

Because of the thin chassis, the power limit is lower than in thicker gaming laptops that run the same GPU at up to 140 W, which can mean lower frame rates under load. The GPU is soldered.

ASUS		NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop GPU, 8 GB GDDR6; 1940 MHz at 140 W (1890 MHz boost + 50 MHz OC; 115 W + 25 W Dynamic Boost)

140 W is the maximum GPU power when Dynamic Boost borrows budget from the CPU: 25 W is added to the sustained 115 W depending on load. This laptop GPU is not the same product as the desktop RTX 4060.

ASUS
DisplayROG Nebula: 16-inch 2.5K (2560 × 1600) 16:10, IPS-level, anti-glare low-reflection (AGLR); 240 Hz, 3 ms, 100% DCI-P3, G-Sync, Pantone Validated

This QP version uses an IPS-level panel; the QR-coded versions have a 0.2 ms OLED panel.

ASUS		15.6-inch Full HD (1920 × 1080) 16:9, anti-glare; 144 Hz; 100% sRGB, 72% NTSC, 75.35% Adobe; G-Sync

144 Hz shows motion smoothly when games reach up to 144 frames per second; G-Sync matches refresh to frame rate to reduce tearing. 100% sRGB suits web and game content; it is not a wide-gamut panel.

ASUS
Graphics switchingMUX Switch + NVIDIA Advanced Optimus ASUSMUX Switch + NVIDIA Advanced Optimus

The MUX connects the display directly to the RTX GPU to cut game latency; Advanced Optimus can switch without a restart.

ASUS
Memory32 GB LPDDR5X-7467 soldered on board; not upgradeable

ASUS states there is no memory slot in this configuration; capacity must be chosen at purchase.

ASUS		DDR5-5600 SO-DIMM, two slots, dual channel; up to 64 GB (2 × 8 GB or 2 × 16 GB depending on SKU)

The modules are not soldered; going higher means replacing the installed modules. ASUS says memory speed varies by CPU.

ASUS
Storage2 TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 SSD; 2 × M.2 PCIe slots

The second M.2 slot is for an additional SSD.

ASUS		512 GB or 1 TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 SSD (by SKU); two M.2 PCIe slots in total

ASUS notes that only single-sided SSDs fit the M.2 slot because of components on the motherboard.

ASUS
Ports1 × Thunderbolt 4 (DisplayPort, power delivery, 40 Gbps), 1 × USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C (DisplayPort, power delivery, 10 Gbps), 2 × USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A, 1 × HDMI 2.1 FRL, SD card reader (UHS-II, 312 MB/s), 3.5 mm audio jack; XG Mobile GC34 support

Both USB‑C ports accept charging. There is no wired network (RJ45) port. XG Mobile GC34 is ASUS’s external graphics enclosure.

ASUS		1 × USB4 Type-C (40 Gbit/s, DisplayPort), 1 × USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C (10 Gbit/s, DisplayPort / power delivery / G-SYNC), 2 × USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A (5 Gbit/s), 1 × HDMI 2.1 FRL, 1 × RJ45, 3.5 mm audio

The USB4 port provides 40 Gbit/s data and video out; G-SYNC is listed only for the USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C port. The RJ45 port does not support PoE.

Battery and power90 Wh, 4-cell lithium-ion; 200 W adapter with rectangular connector; ASUS also lists a 100 W USB‑C adapter

USB‑C charging works, but full performance needs the 200 W adapter. ASUS says included adapters vary by country and model.

ASUS		90 Wh, 4-cell lithium-ion; 240 W adapter (20 V, 12 A, ø6.0 mm)

ASUS says the battery can reach 50% in 30 minutes with the proper adapter while the laptop is off. Whether the adapter is included varies by country; the USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C port also accepts power.
