Specification	ASUS ROG Zephyrus G16 (2024) GU605MV	ASUS ROG Strix G16 (2023) G614JV
Release year	2024	2023
Processor	Intel Core Ultra 9 185H; 16 cores, 22 threads, 2.3 GHz base, up to 5.1 GHz, 24 MB cache; Intel AI Boost NPU (up to 11 TOPS) The NPU is a separate unit for running AI tasks at low power. Intel lists 45 W base and 115 W maximum turbo power for this processor. ASUS	Intel Core i9-13980HX; 24 cores (8 performance + 16 efficiency), 2.2 GHz base, up to 5.6 GHz, 36 MB cache Intel lists 55 W base and 157 W maximum turbo power for this processor; the laptop’s cooling determines the real sustained power. ASUS
Graphics	NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop GPU, 8 GB GDDR6; ROG Boost 1940 MHz at 100 W (85 W + 15 W Dynamic Boost) Because of the thin chassis, the power limit is lower than in thicker gaming laptops that run the same GPU at up to 140 W, which can mean lower frame rates under load. The GPU is soldered. ASUS	NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop GPU, 8 GB GDDR6; ROG Boost 2420 MHz at 140 W (115 W + 25 W Dynamic Boost) ASUS adds a 50 MHz factory overclock to NVIDIA’s 2370 MHz. 115 W is the card’s sustained limit; Dynamic Boost shifts 25 W to the GPU when the CPU load is low. The GPU is soldered and cannot be upgraded. ASUS
Display	ROG Nebula: 16-inch 2.5K (2560 × 1600) 16:10, IPS-level, anti-glare low-reflection (AGLR); 240 Hz, 3 ms, 100% DCI-P3, G-Sync, Pantone Validated This QP version uses an IPS-level panel; the QR-coded versions have a 0.2 ms OLED panel. ASUS	ROG Nebula: 16-inch QHD+ 16:10 (2560 × 1600), IPS-level, anti-glare; 240 Hz, 3 ms, 100% DCI-P3, G-Sync, Pantone Validated G-Sync matches the display refresh to the GPU’s frame rate to reduce tearing. 100% DCI-P3 means it covers the cinema colour space; Pantone validation refers to factory colour calibration. ASUS
Graphics switching	MUX Switch + NVIDIA Advanced Optimus ASUS	MUX Switch + NVIDIA Advanced Optimus The MUX switch connects the internal display directly to the NVIDIA GPU; Advanced Optimus can switch without a restart. ASUS
Memory	32 GB LPDDR5X-7467 soldered on board; not upgradeable ASUS states there is no memory slot in this configuration; capacity must be chosen at purchase. ASUS	32 GB (2 × 16 GB) DDR5-4800 SO-DIMM; 2 slots, up to 32 GB, dual channel The modules are replaceable, but ASUS gives 32 GB as the maximum for this model; both slots come filled. ASUS
Storage	2 TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 SSD; 2 × M.2 PCIe slots The second M.2 slot is for an additional SSD. ASUS	2 TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 SSD; 2 × M.2 PCIe slots The second M.2 slot is for an additional SSD. ASUS
