SpecificationLenovo LOQ 15IRX9 (83DV00K6UK)ASUS ROG Strix G16 (2023) G614JV
Release year20242023
ProcessorIntel Core i7-13650HX; 14 cores (6 P + 8 E), 20 threads, up to 4.9 GHz

HX processors are high-power mobile chips; sustained power and fan noise depend on Lenovo’s power modes.

Lenovo
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
GraphicsNVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop GPU; 8 GB GDDR6; 115 W TGP with the 230 W adapter, 105 W with the 170 W adapter

TGP is the sustained power limit given to the GPU; on the same GPU a higher TGP usually means higher gaming performance. Lenovo ties TGP on this platform to the wattage of the bundled adapter.

Lenovo
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
Memory24 GB DDR5-4800 (2 × 12 GB SODIMM); two slots, up to 32 GB

Memory is not soldered; both slots come filled, so an upgrade means replacing both modules. The 32 GB limit is Lenovo’s platform statement.

Lenovo
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
Storage1 TB M.2 2242 PCIe 4.0 NVMe QLC SSD; two M.2 PCIe 4.0 x4 slots

The second M.2 slot allows an extra SSD. QLC flash can slow down sooner than TLC during long, large writes.

Lenovo
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
Display15.6-inch FHD (1920 × 1080) IPS, 144 Hz, 300 nits, 100% sRGB, anti-glare; NVIDIA G-SYNC

144 Hz shows smooth motion up to 144 frames per second in games; G-SYNC matches the refresh to the GPU’s frame rate to reduce tearing.

Lenovo
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
Ports1 × USB-C 10 Gbps (USB PD 65–100 W input, DisplayPort 1.4); 3 × USB-A 5 Gbps; HDMI 2.1; RJ-45 gigabit Ethernet; 3.5 mm headphone/mic

Charging over USB-C works, but 140 W input needs Lenovo’s own adapter; the slim-tip port remains the main power input for gaming. There is no Thunderbolt or USB4.

Lenovo
1 × Thunderbolt 4 (DisplayPort, 40 Gbps), 1 × USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C (DisplayPort, power delivery, G-SYNC, 10 Gbps), 2 × USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A, 1 × HDMI 2.1 FRL, 1 × RJ45 LAN, 1 × 3.5 mm audio jack

For G-SYNC on an external monitor use the USB‑C port; on this SKU the Thunderbolt 4 port is not listed with G-SYNC. The 2.5G LAN of the RTX 4080 models is not on this model.

ASUS
WirelessWi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) 2x2; Bluetooth 5.2 LenovoWi‑Fi 6E (802.11ax) triple-band 2 × 2; Bluetooth 5.2 ASUS
Battery and adapter60 Wh lithium-ion; up to 50% in 30 minutes with Rapid Charge Pro; 170 W or 230 W slim-tip adapter

Lenovo rates it at 4.1 hours in MobileMark 25 and 5.6 hours of local 1080p video at 150 nits.
