The Asus ROG Stirx G16 is able to extract a lot of performance from its strong hardware. An Intel Core i9 and a Nvidia GeForce RTX 4080 ensure high FPS on a 240 Hz panel in many games. But things get really interesting when it comes to the volume.

The Nvidia GeForce RTX 4080 is powered by up to 170 watts in the Asus ROG Strix G16. In Turbo mode, the gaming notebook achieves a level of performance that brings it close to devices equipped with the more powerful RTX 4090. While the laptop can be annoyingly loud at 52 dB(A), the ROG Strix G16 can also do things differently: thanks to a massive cooling system consisting of three fans and liquid metal, the laptop is also able to run without much noise. For our review, we took the opportunity to analyze the gaming laptop’s other operating modes and came to an interesting conclusion: gaming with ray tracing is possible with current titles as long as you are willing to forego a few FPS.

Frame rates remain above 60 frames per second in many games, even in UHD resolution at ultra settings. F1 22 is one such example: at just under 40 dB(A) in Silent mode, the ROG Strix G16 manages 72 FPS in the racing game with activated ray tracing. So the Asus ROG Strix G16 can certainly be used for gaming without noise pollution or ANC headphones. Unfortunately, one of the laptop’s problems also becomes apparent in this operating mode. Instead of fan noise, you then hear the laptop’s power supply struggling. Coil whine comes to the fore as soon as the laptop makes use of the boost performance of the Intel Core i9-13980HX and Nvidia GeForce RTX 4080.

We also found a few problems with the chassis in our review of the Asus ROG Strix G16. Nevertheless, the laptop ultimately manages to perform well overall.

Asus ROG Strix G18 featuring Intel’s i9-13980HX and Nvidia’s RTX 4080 dGPU blows competing laptops out of the water with unbeatable US$2,499.99 launch price

Asus ROG Strix G18 featuring Intel’s i9-13980HX and Nvidia’s RTX 4080 dGPU blows competing laptops out of the water with unbeatable US,499.99 launch price

BestBuy has the Asus ROG Strix G18 gaming laptop on sale proper now for US$2,4999.99. The configuration consists of the most powerful cellular processor from Intel’s Raptor Lake-HX sequence – the i9-13980HX – coupled with 16 GB of DDR5-4800 RAM and a 1 TB PCIe 4. NVMe SSD as well as the Nvidia RTX 4080 mobile GPU with 12 GB VRAM. Granted, it is not just a discount, but as opposed to other similar configurations from competing OEMs, this is by considerably the most very affordable.

For reference, the closest competitor would be the Alienware M18 at US$2,900, adopted by the Acer Predator Helios 18 at US$3,000, when the Razer Blade 18 appears way overpriced at US$3,800. Also, all 3 competitors sport a little bit significantly less highly effective processors. Not to mention that the Strix G18 completely destroys all cell RTX 3080 Ti configurations (on average 25-30{b7c9e2c88beb1a84f22d94ab877a147f4adc4b3519717f3f957a0f34e16918d1} slower) that still sell for a lot more than US$3,000 now.&#13

A value this lower could be indicative of some compromises. Nevertheless, this does not seem to be to be the situation with the Strix G18. Even though some would argue that DDR5-4800 could be considerably slower than the DDR5-5600 modules, youtuber Dave2D statements that the change is not truly visible. The display screen is not bad at all, either. In point, Dave2D thinks this could be 1 of the ideal 18-inch 2560 x 1600 240 Hz IPS panel out there, as it is extremely dazzling at 489 nits, has respectable colour copy with 99{b7c9e2c88beb1a84f22d94ab877a147f4adc4b3519717f3f957a0f34e16918d1} DCI-P3 and also attributes a MUX change.&#13

Admittedly, there are a few shortcomings with this design, but nothing that could have an affect on the total effectiveness. Dave2D details out that biometrics are entirely missing here, and the 18-inch size together with the significant 330 W adapter may well detract from the portability component. For individuals with sensitive hearing, the Strix G18 could show some coil whine coming from the GPU VRM when less than load.&#13
