ProcessorAMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 (12 cores / 24 threads, 2.0–5.1 GHz, 36 MB cache); 50 TOPS XDNA NPU ASUSIntel Core i9-14900HX: 24 cores (8 P + 16 E), 32 threads; P-core 2.2/5.8 GHz, E-core 1.6/4.1 GHz; 36 MB Intel Smart Cache; Intel HM770 chipset Lenovo
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 4080 Laptop GPU, 12 GB GDDR6; 2280 MHz boost clock, 175 W TGP, 542 AI TOPS

175 W is the highest total graphics power Lenovo allows in this model; going above NVIDIA’s 60–150 W base range for the RTX 4080 Laptop GPU relies on Dynamic Boost 2.0. The desktop RTX 4080 is a different product.

Lenovo
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 WQXGA (2560 × 1600) IPS, non-touch, 500 nits, anti-glare, 16:10, 1200:1, 100% DCI-P3, 240 Hz; DisplayHDR 400, Dolby Vision, G-SYNC, X-Rite factory calibration

DisplayHDR 400 is VESA’s entry-level HDR tier; it does not require local dimming, so HDR looks less striking than on OLED or Mini LED. 240 Hz and G-SYNC give smooth, tear-free motion in fast games. Lenovo notes that “IPS” may also cover similar panel types such as PLS, ADS and AHVA.

Lenovo
Memory32 GB LPDDR5X 8000 soldered; no expansion slot ASUS1 × 16 GB DDR5-5600 SO-DIMM; two slots, dual-channel capable; up to 32 GB in Lenovo’s offering

This configuration ships with a single module, so memory runs single-channel until a matching module is added to the second slot. Lenovo’s 32 GB limit is based on the modules it has tested.

Lenovo
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 × 1 TB M.2 2280 PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe SSD; two M.2 2280 PCIe 4.0 x4 slots (both used)

PCIe 4.0 x4 allows up to 8 GB/s in theory; real speed depends on the SSD. There is no card reader.

Lenovo
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 / USB4 40 Gbit/s (DisplayPort 1.4), 1 × USB-C 10 Gbit/s (Lenovo PD 140 W, DisplayPort 1.4), 4 × USB-A 5 Gbit/s (one Always On), 1 × HDMI 2.1 (up to 8K/60 Hz), 1 × RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet, 3.5 mm audio

140 W charging over USB-C needs Lenovo’s own adapter; other adapters may deliver less. Up to four independent displays including the internal one are supported; Lenovo lists up to 4K/60 Hz for external outputs. Ethernet is 1 Gbit/s, not 2.5G, and supports Wake-on-LAN.

Battery and power73 Wh, 4-cell lithium-ion; 200 W adapter ASUS99.9 Wh lithium-ion, Super Rapid Charge; 330 W slim-tip GaN adapter

Lenovo says Super Rapid Charge reaches 30% in 10 minutes, 70% in 30 minutes and 100% in 80 minutes. 99.9 Wh sits just under the usual airline battery limit. Lenovo quotes 10.4 hours of 1080p video playback at 150 nits.
