If you’re done dealing with laggy frame rates and low-end GPUs, this is your sign to upgrade. The ASUS ROG Strix G16 just dropped to $1,149 on Amazon—down from $1,399—and it’s absolutely loaded. You’re getting a 13th-gen Intel Core i7-13650HX, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060, 16GB of DDR5 RAM, and 1TB of PCIe Gen 4 SSD storage.
That’s desktop-class gaming power stuffed into a slick 16-inch chassis—no compromises.
What makes this laptop stand out isn’t just the spec sheet. ASUS packs in a 165Hz display, Wi-Fi 6E, and Advanced Optimus, which intelligently toggles between integrated and discrete graphics for better battery and smoother performance. Reviews highlight how well the cooling system works under pressure—even during extended gaming sessions.
Want smooth 1080p or 1440p gaming at ultra settings? This thing will eat that for breakfast.
If you’re editing video, running Blender, or just want a future-proof laptop for years of gaming, this machine is built to handle it. It’s also Amazon’s Choice, with solid user feedback for performance, thermals, and upgradability—yes, you can upgrade the RAM later if needed.
Other RTX 4060 laptops at this level are still going for $1,300+. This one is fully loaded and already undercutting the competition.
