GraphicsNVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 Laptop GPU, 8 GB GDDR7; 2662 MHz boost, 115 W TGP, 440 AI TOPS

115 W TGP is among the higher power limits used for this GPU in laptops; the same RTX 5050 runs at lower power in thinner chassis. The graphics chip is soldered. Lenovo also offers the RTX 5060 and 5070 Laptop GPU in this chassis at 115 W.

Lenovo
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Laptop GPU; 8 GB GDDR7; ROG Boost 1610 MHz at 115 W (100 W + 15 W Dynamic Boost)

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.

ASUS
Display15.1-inch WQXGA (2560 × 1600) OLED; 165 Hz, 500 nits typical / 1000 nits peak, 100% DCI-P3, glossy surface, DisplayHDR True Black 600, Dolby Vision

DisplayHDR True Black 600 is the VESA tier verifying 600-nit peak brightness and very low black level on OLED panels. The panel is factory colour-calibrated and TÜV-certified for low blue light and flicker-free operation; it is not a touchscreen. The platform sheet does not list G-SYNC for this panel.

Lenovo
16-inch FHD+ 16:10 (1920 × 1200) IPS-level, anti-glare; 165 Hz; 3 ms; 100% sRGB

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.

ASUS
Memory16 GB (1 × 16 GB) DDR5-5600 SO-DIMM; 2 slots, dual-channel capable

With one module fitted at the factory, memory runs in single channel; adding a matching module to the free slot enables dual channel. The highest capacity Lenovo has tested is 32 GB.

Lenovo
16 GB DDR5-5600 SO-DIMM; two SO-DIMM slots, up to 64 GB, dual-channel capable

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.

ASUS
Storage1 TB M.2 2242 PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe SSD; 2 × M.2 2280 PCIe 4.0 x4 slots

A second SSD can be fitted in the free M.2 slot.

Lenovo
512 GB PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 SSD; two M.2 PCIe slots

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.

ASUS
Ports1 × Thunderbolt 4 / USB4 40 Gbps USB-C (DisplayPort 2.1), 1 × USB-C 10 Gbps (USB PD 95–100 W, DisplayPort 2.1), 3 × USB-A 5 Gbps (one always on), 1 × HDMI 2.1 (up to 8K 60 Hz), 1 × RJ-45 gigabit Ethernet, 3.5 mm headset jack, slim-tip power input

USB-C charging works only through the 10 Gbps port; the Thunderbolt 4 port does not accept power. Up to 3 external displays are supported alongside the built-in panel: HDMI up to 8K 60 Hz, USB-C up to 5K 60 Hz. There is no SD card reader.

Lenovo
3 × USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A (10 Gbit/s); 1 × USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C (10 Gbit/s, DisplayPort, power delivery, G-Sync); 1 × Thunderbolt 4 (DisplayPort, power delivery); HDMI 2.1 FRL; RJ45; 3.5 mm audio

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

Cooling—End-to-end vapor chamber, sandwiched heatsink, tri-fan; Conductonaut Extreme liquid metal on the CPU

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.
