ROG Strix G16 (2025)

ASUS shared the G16 Strix platform between Dragon Range Refresh 8940HX and Fire Range 9955HX, so the platform baseline needs to be low-cost to hit the Zen4 price points and that means corners cut on peripherals, cooling, and power delivery. People that think there's a conspiracy behind ASUS's decisi

So grateful my t14 g1 and asus rog zephyrus g16 have separate power buttons, none of this “built into the keyboard” garbage.

I have the G16 version and also had heat issues. I believe every single ROG model that rolls out has thermal issues. I have still not had a good Asus Liquid Metal application.

Legion pro is fine, TUF F16 is bad. You can consider ASUS ROG Strix G16 w 4060

If you were building yourself 2k would be doable, but I doubt you’ll find a nice prebuilt for <2k, especially one without a bunch of tacky RGB. Might as well just get a laptop. Asus ROG Zephyrus G16, Gigabyte G6X, etc. And do not listen to the people telling you to buy a computer, charge your compan

Literally why I grabbed an Asus Strix G16 2024 a couple of days ago to replace an older machine, figuring something this was coming. At a minimum I figured I could head off prices being jacked up on existing supply (or new models coming in the next few month). But I figure scarcity would be a factor

For the record for future viewers of this post: Many, many people have run into a shit load of trouble just “nuking” their windows install on their g14/g16, as you have put it. Allowing windows to install your drivers automatically seems to cause a whole slew of issues for people, with the best meth
