The processor’s Intel AI Boost NPU delivers up to 13 TOPS of AI processing; some Windows AI features use this unit instead of the graphics card.

ASUS
GraphicsNVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Laptop GPU; 12 GB GDDR7; 1812 MHz at 110 W in Turbo mode (85 W + 25 W Dynamic Boost)

110 W is the ceiling reached only in the Turbo profile when CPU load allows. The GA403UP version with the RTX 5070 Laptop in the same chassis is limited to 90 W and 8 GB.

ASUS		NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 Laptop GPU, 24 GB GDDR7; ROG Boost 1647 MHz; 120 W (100 W + 20 W Dynamic Boost)

120 W is the upper power limit including Dynamic Boost: the extra 20 W is shifted to the GPU when the processor load is low and is not always available. The RTX 5070 Ti version of the same chassis is limited to 115 W, and the RTX 5060 and 5070 versions to 105 W.

ASUS
Display14-inch 3K (2880 × 1800) OLED, 16:10; 120 Hz; 100% DCI-P3; Pantone Validated

Pantone Validated means the screen reproduces Pantone colours with factory-measured accuracy, reducing colour shifts in photo and video editing.

ASUS		16-inch 2.5K (2560 × 1600) OLED, 16:10, 240 Hz; 100% DCI-P3; G-Sync; Pantone Validated

240 Hz shows up to 240 frames per second in games; G-Sync matches the display refresh rate to the graphics card’s frame rate to prevent tearing. Pantone Validated means the display colours are verified against Pantone reference colours. ASUS does not give brightness or response time on this page.

Memory32 GB LPDDR5X 8000 soldered; no expansion slot ASUS64 GB LPDDR5X-7467, soldered on board, dual channel; no memory slot

Memory cannot be upgraded later; the capacity chosen at purchase is permanent.

ASUS
Storage1 TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 SSD; one M.2 slot in total

With the only slot occupied, adding capacity means replacing the drive.

ASUS		2 TB M.2 NVMe PCIe 4.0 SSD; 2 × M.2 PCIe slots in total

The second M.2 slot allows an extra SSD. ASUS gives no separate PCIe generation for the free slot.

Ports1 × USB4 Type-C (40 Gbit/s, DisplayPort, power delivery); 1 × USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C (DisplayPort, power delivery, G-Sync); 2 × USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A; UHS-II microSD; 3.5 mm; XG Mobile GC34 support

ASUS documents G-Sync for external displays only on the USB 3.2 Type-C output. XG Mobile is ASUS’s external graphics enclosure.

ASUS		1 × Thunderbolt 4 (40 Gbps, DisplayPort, power input); 1 × USB-C 10 Gbps (DisplayPort, power input, G-SYNC); 2 × USB-A 10 Gbps; HDMI 2.1 FRL; UHS-II SD card reader (312 MB/s); 3.5 mm audio

Both USB-C ports support an external display and charging; the 10 Gbps USB-C port also carries G-SYNC to an external display. ASUS does not state the USB-C charging power.
