Gaming laptops can be prohibitively expensive, which is why you should take every opportunity to save money on one when you can, and right now you can save money on the ASUS ROG Strix G16 2024 model thanks to this deal from Amazon. This configuration comes with an RTX 4070 GPU, which normally retails for $1,899.99 when it’s available at full price.
However, because of Amazon’s sale, it has a $200 discount, which brings the final price down to $1,699.99. While that is still expensive, for a gaming laptop with these specs, it’s really not so bad. Because it comes with an RTX 4070 GPU, it has access to DLSS 3 technology. DLSS 3 is even better at generating frames for games that you’re playing (if they support DLSS), and that’s going to make them look a lot smoother if you prefer to play at higher graphics settings.
In addition to the RTX 4070 GPU, it also comes with an Intel Core i9-14900HX CPU, 1TB of storage, and 16GB of DDR5 RAM. The display is 16 inches, and it has QHD resolution, so your games should look visually stunning. Also, because it has a 240Hz refresh rate, it will help with how smooth the games look.
The laptop also has a MUX Switch, and this can be helpful for times when you want more battery life out of the laptop. While the ROG Strix G16 has an RTX 4070 inside, this is a dedicated GPU. The laptop also has an integrated GPU, which is better suited for power efficiency and less intensive tasks. What the MUX Switch does is swap between the dedicated GPU and the integrated GPU as needed.
The laptop also has several ports available for connecting peripherals. This includes two USB-A ports, two USB-C ports, an HDMI out port, an ethernet port, and an audio jack.
