This section was written by AI and requires review. Remove this after review.

Processor

The ROG Zephyrus G16 (2024) can be configured with the following processors[1]:

  • Intel Core Ultra 9 185H with 16 cores and 22 threads, a base clock speed of 2.3 GHz, and a maximum turbo frequency of 5.1 GHz. It includes an Intel AI Boost NPU for enhanced AI processing capabilities.
  • AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 with 12 cores and 24 threads, a base clock speed of 2.0 GHz, and a maximum turbo frequency of 5.1 GHz. It features an AMD XDNA NPU with up to 50 TOPS for AI tasks.

The processors are designed to handle demanding tasks and gaming applications efficiently. The AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 processor includes new Zen 5 and Zen 5c architectures, with the Zen 5 cores having access to 16 MB of L3 cache and the Zen 5c cores having 8 MB. It also features a Radeon 890M integrated GPU, which is an improvement over the previous generation's 780M, offering better low-power 1080p gaming performance.[2]

The Intel Core Ultra 9 185H processor is part of the new Meteor Lake generation, which offers improved performance over the previous Raptor Lake chips, although its single-core performance is slightly weaker. The multi-core performance remains constant, and the CPU performance is stable even on battery power.[3]

Benchmarks:

  • Cinebench R23:
    • Intel Core Ultra 9 185H: ~17267 pts (multi-core), ~1681 pts (single-core)[4]

Graphics

The ROG Zephyrus G16 (2024) offers several discrete GPU options:[1]

The RTX 4070 variant, while offering solid performance, is noted to run hotter than most other laptops with the same GPU due to the slim chassis design. This is despite the inclusion of three fans and liquid metal cooling from Thermal Grizzly. The power budget for the RTX 4070 is lower than some competitors, which affects game performance slightly, making it up to 10% slower than laptops like the Lenovo Legion 7i with the same GPU.[5]

The RTX 4090 variant offers high performance but is limited by the slim design, which affects cooling efficiency. The GPU performance is stable during long gaming sessions, but the laptop runs hotter compared to other models with the same GPU.[6]
