ProcessorAMD Ryzen 7 7445HS; 6 cores / 12 threads, 3.2 GHz base, up to 4.7 GHz, 22 MB cache ASUSIntel Core Ultra 9 185H; 16 cores, 22 threads, 2.3 GHz base, up to 5.1 GHz, 24 MB cache; Intel AI Boost NPU (up to 11 TOPS)

The NPU is a separate unit for running AI tasks at low power. Intel lists 45 W base and 115 W maximum turbo power for this processor.

ASUS
GraphicsNVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050 Laptop GPU; 6 GB GDDR6; 2420 MHz at 140 W (115 W + 25 W Dynamic Boost)

140 W is the highest total power the GPU can draw: 115 W base power plus 25 W of Dynamic Boost shifted over when the processor is lightly loaded. The 2420 MHz figure is the 2370 MHz boost clock plus a 50 MHz factory overclock.

ASUS		NVIDIA 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
GPU switchingMUX Switch + NVIDIA Advanced Optimus; G-Sync

The MUX switch connects the internal display straight to the NVIDIA GPU so games skip the integrated graphics; Advanced Optimus makes that switch automatically without a restart.

Display16-inch FHD+ 16:10 (1920 × 1200) value IPS-level, anti-glare; 144 Hz; 45% NTSC

144 Hz means the panel can refresh 144 times a second, so motion looks smoother when the game frame rate keeps up. 45% NTSC is a narrow colour gamut: the FA607PV panel in the same family is listed at 100% sRGB.

ASUS		ROG Nebula: 16-inch 2.5K (2560 × 1600) 16:10, IPS-level, anti-glare low-reflection (AGLR); 240 Hz, 3 ms, 100% DCI-P3, G-Sync, Pantone Validated

This QP version uses an IPS-level panel; the QR-coded versions have a 0.2 ms OLED panel.

ASUS
Memory2 × 8 GB DDR5-5600 SO-DIMM (16 GB total), dual channel; up to 64 GB

Memory is not soldered: it sits in two SO-DIMM slots and can be swapped for up to 64 GB. ASUS notes the actual memory speed depends on what the processor supports.

ASUS		32 GB LPDDR5X-7467 soldered on board; not upgradeable

ASUS states there is no memory slot in this configuration; capacity must be chosen at purchase.

ASUS
Storage512 GB PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 SSD; two M.2 PCIe slots in total

According to ASUS, on Ryzen 7 7445HS configurations the second SSD slot offers restricted bandwidth because of motherboard limits; components near the slot also mean only single-sided SSDs are supported.

ASUS		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
Ports1 × USB4 Type-C (40 Gbit/s, DisplayPort); 1 × USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C (10 Gbit/s, DisplayPort, power delivery, G-Sync); 2 × USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A (5 Gbit/s); HDMI 2.1 FRL; RJ45; 3.5 mm audio

Charging over USB-C is listed only on the 10 Gbit/s USB 3.2 Gen 2 port; the USB4 port is for display and data. The RJ45 port does not support PoE.

ASUS		1 × Thunderbolt 4 (DisplayPort, power delivery, 40 Gbps), 1 × USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C (DisplayPort, power delivery, 10 Gbps), 2 × USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A, 1 × HDMI 2.1 FRL, SD card reader (UHS-II, 312 MB/s), 3.5 mm audio jack; XG Mobile GC34 support

Both USB‑C ports accept charging. There is no wired network (RJ45) port. XG Mobile GC34 is ASUS’s external graphics enclosure.

ASUS
WirelessWi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) dual band 2 × 2; Bluetooth 5.2

ASUS notes the Bluetooth version may vary with operating system and driver support.

Battery and power56 Wh, 4-cell lithium-ion; 240 W adapter (20 V, 12 A)

According to ASUS, the battery reaches 50% in 30 minutes with the proper adapter while the laptop is shut down. Whether the adapter is included can vary by country.

ASUS		90 Wh, 4-cell lithium-ion; 200 W adapter with rectangular connector; ASUS also lists a 100 W USB‑C adapter

USB‑C charging works, but full performance needs the 200 W adapter. ASUS says included adapters vary by country and model.
