AMD Ryzen 9 7940HS; 8 cores / 16 threads; up to 5.2 GHz; 16 MB L3 cache

The chip also includes Radeon 780M integrated graphics.

ASUS
GraphicsNVIDIA 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 2300 MHz; 125 W (100 W + 25 W Dynamic Boost)

2300 MHz is the 2250 MHz boost clock plus a 50 MHz ASUS overclock; ASUS says it measured this with FurMark in a 25 °C lab. The graphics chip is soldered and cannot be upgraded.
