Save $300 on the Asus ROG Strix G16 with this stellar gaming laptop deal. This laptop packs a 16-inch, 1920 x 1200-pixel display, an Intel Core i9-13980HX CPU, Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070, 16GB of RAM, and 1TB of SSD storage. The Strix lasted 8 hours and 49 minutes on our battery test.
In my Asus ROG Strix G16 (G614J) review, I was impressed by the keyboard, speakers, performance, and long battery life. Those some of the key pillars that make a great gaming laptop.
However, I was disappointed by the dim and dull display. The Asus ROG Strix G16 covered 75.9% of the DCI-P3 color gamut and emitted 279 nits of brightness. That's not what I'd consider premium, but for the discounted price, I could look the other way.
When we're talking about performance, the Strix G16 averaged 98 fps on the Far Cry 6 benchmark (Ultra, 1080p) and 100 fps on the Borderlands 3 benchmark (Badass, 1080p). It's more than ready for modern gaming.
To top that all off, the Strix lasted 8 hours and 49 minutes on the Laptop Mag battery test. This gaming laptop is ready for you, as long as you can overlook some of its flaws.
