Acer Swift Air 14 / ASUS ROG Strix G16 (2025) G615LM-BS73-CB (Core Ultra 7 255HX, RTX 5060)

A52Y configuration, not the family’s first global announcement.

This SKU has a single 16 GB module; adding a second module lets the memory run in dual channel. Memory speed may vary with what the processor supports.

Acer’s processor-limitation footnote; 8533 is not the operating rate.

Both SSD slots use the screwless Q-Latch retainer. ASUS says both slots are PCIe Gen 5 ready; the bundled SSD is PCIe 4.0.

Manufacturer does not support user upgrades.

165 Hz means smooth motion up to 165 frames per second; the 3 ms response time describes how fast pixels change colour. The family also includes 2.5K 240 Hz versions; this SKU uses the FHD+ panel.

Manufacturer figure.

115 W is the highest total power the GPU can draw: 15 W of Dynamic Boost is added to the 100 W base limit when the processor is lightly loaded. 1610 MHz is the 1560 MHz boost clock plus a 50 MHz factory overclock. GPUs in the stronger G615 versions go up to 140 W.

Not display cover glass; generation is unspecified.

G-Sync support is listed on the USB-C port, so that is the port to use for variable refresh on an external monitor.

According to ASUS, liquid metal is applied to the GPU only on RTX 5080 and RTX 5070 Ti versions, so this RTX 5060 version has none on the GPU. Hot air exits behind the hinge.

The rest of the motherboard is covered by a screwed-down protective frame.

Whether the adapter is included can vary by country and model.
