Optimized power and performance
NVIDIA Max-Q is an advanced suite of AI-powered technologies that optimize your system for peak efficiency. This enables blazing-fast laptops that are thin, quiet, and have amazing battery life.

Game, stream, create
The Strix G series is built from the ground up for gamers - and, of course, game developers. The Strix G16 can run advanced game engines, enabling you to unlock your creativity and try your hand at making the next great game. Whether you're a digital artist, streamer, video editor, or dabble with animation and game development, the Strix G16 has all the horsepower you need to take your creations to the next level.

ROG Intelligent Cooling
To accommodate such powerful components, the Strix G16's chassis and motherboard were both redesigned to accommodate full-width heatsink, whose fins were moved even closer to the exhaust vents for more efficient cooling. The full-width heatsink is built from three different sections, surrounding the motherboard with densely-packed fins.

Scenario profiles
Silent, Performance, and Turbo modes are just the beginning. Scenario Profiles allow your system to automatically switch between these modes based on the application you're running, alongside other vital system settings. Switch between lighting configurations automatically, disable the Windows key and touchpad during games, and automate to your heart's content. Armory Crate makes adjustments in an instant to best fit the task at hand.

Full-width heatsink
The G16 features 374 heatsink fins, with each stack lined with ultra-thin copper as slim as 0.1 mm. This allows for higher density and lower air resistance. The full-width design is double the size of a typical laptop heatsink and covers the entire rear of the machine.

Tri-Fan technology
At the heart of every great laptop is a great cooling solution. Tri-Fan technology directs air though precisely calculated cutouts in the chassis, sending airflow directly towards internal components to keep them cool in all conditions. A third auxiliary fan also helps to send additional heat from the GPU directly to the heatsinks, keeping the machine cool during long video renders or gaming sessions.

Conductonaut extreme liquid metal
The Strix G16 features Thermal Grizzly's Conductonaut Extreme liquid metal, which improves the substance's heat transfer even further. Compared to traditional thermal pastes, this indium- and gallium-based compound offers 17x higher conductivity, in addition to CPU and GPU temperature reductions of up to 15 degrees.

0 dB ambient cooling
Enjoy truly silent cooling under light workloads with 0 dB technology. In the silent operating mode, the cooling system switches off all fans during everyday tasks to dissipate heat passively. This lets you concentrate on your work and immerse yourself in movies with less distraction. If CPU or GPU temperatures increase, the fans automatically switch on again.

0.1 mm ultra-thin fin
Thermal energy is dissipated by four heatsinks, each lined with ultra-thin copper fins as slim as 0.1 mm. These fins are half the size of typical solutions, allowing for higher density for heat dissipation and lower air resistance to allow for smoother flow.

CoolZone keyboard
Extended gaming sessions can heat up internal components and make the keyboard warm to the touch. To keep your fingers cool, small vents around the WASD keys let the fans draw cool air into the chassis from above.

Dolby Vision technology
Scene to scene, frame to frame, Dolby Vision makes media look better. The technology improves on standard high dynamic range (HDR) 4K video, dynamically adjusting visuals to make every image in front of you richer, brighter, and livelier. Creators can film and edit their streams, videos, and other content in a format commonly used by industry professionals.

TÜV Rheinland certification
Nebula Displays are TÜV Rheinland certified, ensuring they are low blue light compliant and flicker-free, preventing eyestrain during long gaming or content creation sessions.

All-day endurance
The Strix G16 is ready to go the distance. Featuring a large battery, the laptop can easily browse the web for hours away from the wall before needing a recharge. For flexibility on-the-go, USB Type-C charging is supported up to 100 W. When charging using the supplied 330 W power adapter, the G16 can recharge from zero to 50% in a short time.

    Whether anyone still cares or not, despite the laptop being out of stock, and removed from Very's website now, i've seen the same machine sold on eBay by a private seller as brand new, for £1699. Reckon they made use of the welcome code. Anyhow, my unit is great. Coil whine isn't annoying, and the third fan isn't that irritating, at least better than was expected. Keyboard is superb, and trackpad is decent, but isn't firm enough to avoid rattling during moderate taps. No IR unlock is odd, especially when a Gigabyte Aorus 15 from Curry's for £819 comes with that feature. Thermal limit of 60 degrees before the fans kick in sounds quite high and might give the impression that the system will run silent most of the time when you're not gaming, but that i9-13980HX likes to chug power, and i can't imagine the idle power usage being particularly low, hence why it gets warm quite quickly. The fans themselves do a good job, with CPU temps unable to reach 90+, which is a plus. The 4080 performance is in line with other 4080 gaming laptops, which is to say, is excellent. Huuuuge step up from the 4070, and not that far off the 4090. At least at 1600P, and with the games i play, i definitely don't need the 4090. Speakers are clear but lack bass, which is annoying, again for something with an RRP of £2499. Webcam is one of the best 720p cameras out there, but that's not me singing praises of it, because it's still grainy and 720p. RRP it's too much, £2099 it's alright, but at £1699, or rather the price i actually paid, it's excellent. 4/5.

    Can the ram be upgraded also?

    I’ll check the model specifically but I’d wager a guess that it’s a yes, because the ram clock speed isn’t particularly special for DDR5.

    Any similar laptops/deals around now that this has gone. Looking for something that's useful now but somewhat 'future proof ' that will be more than sufficient for gcse's in two years and a levels after even perhaps good enough for first year of uni in approx 5 odd years (aware battery will need to be replaced and maybe hdd/sdd).

    I don't really have a budget but this sort of price is probably the upper limit.

    I brought the following back in 2020 and the battery is only now starting to show signs that it is time to be replaced.
