Specification	Lenovo Legion Pro 7 16IRX9H (83DE0005US)	ASUS ROG Strix G16 (2023) G614JV-BS74-CB
Release year	2024	2023
Processor	Intel Core i9-14900HX: 24 cores (8 P + 16 E), 32 threads; P-core 2.2/5.8 GHz, E-core 1.6/4.1 GHz; 36 MB Intel Smart Cache; Intel HM770 chipset Lenovo	Intel Core i7-13650HX; 14 cores (6 performance + 8 efficiency), 2.6 GHz, up to 4.9 GHz, 24 MB cache HX-series chips are near-desktop laptop processors that run at high power limits; fan noise and temperature depend on the ASUS power profile chosen. ASUS
Graphics	NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 Laptop GPU, 12 GB GDDR6; 2280 MHz boost clock, 175 W TGP, 542 AI TOPS 175 W is the highest total graphics power Lenovo allows in this model; going above NVIDIA’s 60–150 W base range for the RTX 4080 Laptop GPU relies on Dynamic Boost 2.0. The desktop RTX 4080 is a different product. Lenovo	NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop GPU; 8 GB GDDR6; ROG Boost 2420 MHz; 140 W (115 W + 25 W Dynamic Boost) 2420 MHz is the 2370 MHz boost clock plus a 50 MHz ASUS overclock. 115 W is the upper power class for the RTX 4060 Laptop; Dynamic Boost shifts spare CPU power to the GPU. The graphics chip is soldered to the motherboard and cannot be upgraded. ASUS
Display	16-inch WQXGA (2560 × 1600) IPS, non-touch, 500 nits, anti-glare, 16:10, 1200:1, 100% DCI-P3, 240 Hz; DisplayHDR 400, Dolby Vision, G-SYNC, X-Rite factory calibration DisplayHDR 400 is VESA’s entry-level HDR tier; it does not require local dimming, so HDR looks less striking than on OLED or Mini LED. 240 Hz and G-SYNC give smooth, tear-free motion in fast games. Lenovo notes that “IPS” may also cover similar panel types such as PLS, ADS and AHVA. Lenovo	16-inch FHD+ (1920 × 1200, 16:10); IPS-level, anti-glare; 165 Hz; 7 ms; sRGB 100% 165 Hz shows smoother motion at up to 165 frames per second in games, provided the game reaches that frame rate. “IPS-level” means ASUS does not state the exact panel type. ASUS
Memory	1 × 16 GB DDR5-5600 SO-DIMM; two slots, dual-channel capable; up to 32 GB in Lenovo’s offering This configuration ships with a single module, so memory runs single-channel until a matching module is added to the second slot. Lenovo’s 32 GB limit is based on the modules it has tested. Lenovo	16 GB (2 × 8 GB) DDR5-4800 SO-DIMM; 2 slots; up to 32 GB according to ASUS The memory modules are replaceable; both slots are filled for dual-channel operation. ASUS
Storage	2 × 1 TB M.2 2280 PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe SSD; two M.2 2280 PCIe 4.0 x4 slots (both used) PCIe 4.0 x4 allows up to 8 GB/s in theory; real speed depends on the SSD. There is no card reader. Lenovo	1 TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 SSD; 2 × M.2 PCIe slots The second M.2 slot can take an additional SSD. ASUS
Ports	1 × Thunderbolt 4 / USB4 40 Gbit/s (DisplayPort 1.4), 1 × USB-C 10 Gbit/s (Lenovo PD 140 W, DisplayPort 1.4), 4 × USB-A 5 Gbit/s (one Always On), 1 × HDMI 2.1 (up to 8K/60 Hz), 1 × RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet, 3.5 mm audio 140 W charging over USB-C needs Lenovo’s own adapter; other adapters may deliver less. Up to four independent displays including the internal one are supported; Lenovo lists up to 4K/60 Hz for external outputs. Ethernet is 1 Gbit/s, not 2.5G, and supports Wake-on-LAN. Lenovo	1 × Thunderbolt 4 (DisplayPort, 40 Gbit/s); 1 × USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C (DisplayPort, power delivery, G-SYNC, 10 Gbit/s); 2 × USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A; HDMI 2.1 FRL; RJ45 LAN; 3.5 mm audio jack The Thunderbolt 4 port does not accept charging; USB-C charging goes through the other Type-C port. There is no SD card reader. ASUS
Wireless	Intel Killer Wi-Fi 6E AX1675i, 802.11ax 2×2 + Bluetooth 5.3 Lenovo	Wi‑Fi 6E (triple band, 2 × 2); Bluetooth 5.2 ASUS
Keyboard and touchpad	6-row with numeric keypad, 1.5 mm key travel; per-key RGB backlight; 75 × 120 mm buttonless Mylar surface, Precision TouchPad Lenovo	—

Cooling	Hybrid cooling: air cooling + liquid-metal thermal interface Liquid metal transfers heat between the chip and cooler more efficiently than standard paste, which makes servicing more delicate. Lenovo	—
Battery and power	99.9 Wh lithium-ion, Super Rapid Charge; 330 W slim-tip GaN adapter Lenovo says Super Rapid Charge reaches 30% in 10 minutes, 70% in 30 minutes and 100% in 80 minutes. 99.9 Wh sits just under the usual airline battery limit. Lenovo quotes 10.4 hours of 1080p video playback at 150 nits. Lenovo	90 Wh, 4-cell lithium-ion; 280 W adapter (ø6.0 mm) The 280 W adapter is needed for full GPU and CPU power; performance drops on battery. ASUS
