High power processing

When you need to render large video files or perform other intensive tasks, you can rely on the latest gen Ryzen™ 9 6000 series​. This CPU offers exceptional multithreaded performance, while also maintaining best-in-class gaming ability.

Supercharged graphics

Powered by NVIDIA’s Ampere architecture, the RTX™ 3080 Ti is the most powerful GPU we’ve put into a laptop. With a maximum TGP of 165W and access to the latest technology like ray tracing and DLSS, this GPU can deliver both high resolution and high frame rates in the latest AAA games.
*165W only available on Manual mode with Dynamic Boost

Boost performance with AI

NVIDIA DLSS gives games a speed boost with uncompromised image quality. Crank up the settings and resolution for an even better visual experience.

More immersive experiences

Ray Tracing is the holy grail of graphics. It simulates how light behaves in the real-world to produce the most realistic and immersive graphics for gamers and creators - and runs fast thanks to 2nd gen RT Cores.

Optimized power and performance

NVIDIA Max-Q is a suite of technologies powered by AI that optimize laptops to deliver high performance in thin form factors.

Get more with MUX

Modern gaming laptops use powerful, dedicated graphics chips for high performance—but most route those frames through the CPU's integrated graphics before reaching the display. For competitive games, a MUX switch opens a direct GPU mode that reduces latency and boosts performance by an average of 9%.

Lightning fast load times with Gen 4 SSD

Up to 2 NVM Express® (NVMe®) PCIe® Gen 4x4 SSDs running in RAID 0 bring incredible speed and responsiveness to your system. Stocked with up to 4TB of storage, this PCI Express® array is spacious enough for your most massive multimedia projects and modern games. Quicker load times with PCIe® Gen 4 across your entire catalogue of apps and programs means less idle time waiting and more quality time for work and play.

Next gen multitasking with DDR5 RAM

Multitasking is fast and efficient with up to 64GB of DDR5 4800MHz memory. Gamers and content creators can easily stream, chat, and play at the same time, while power users can run every program they need for maximum productivity. Both SO-DIMMs are easily accessible for future upgrades.

ROG Nebula HDR Display

Nebula HDR Display™

Mini LED. Maximum vibrance.

Mini LED allows for deeper contrast and higher brightness than traditional LED displays, allowing for an image that pops off the screen with VESA DisplayHDR™ 1000 certification. Prepare to be dazzled by vivid colors with 100% DCI-P3 coverage.

Precise contrast with the Nebula HDR engine

Our Nebula HDR Display™ is powered by AMLED technology from AUO and ROG’s own in-house backlight algorithm. This adaptive control technology utilizes image processing as well as dynamic dimming and boosting to create hyper-accurate local dimming, which reduces the blooming effect seen on some HDR panels. With the increased density of Mini LED, your content will look more vibrant than ever.

As an alternative to the Nebula HDR Display™, ROG is offering a second panel option on the Zephyrus Duo 16. Co-developed with BOE, ROG is proud to offer the world’s first Dual Spec panel. This revolutionary display is able to switch from 4K 120Hz to FHD 240Hz. No longer forced to choose between high resolution or high refresh rates when gaming or consuming media, with the Zephyrus Duo 16, you can have the best of both worlds with a single machine.

Upgraded Conductonaut Extreme Liquid Metal

Powerful components like the CPU need a thermal interface material to transfer their heat to the cooling system. Thermal Grizzly’s Conductonaut Extreme improves upon standard thermal pastes with 17X higher thermal conductivity, resulting in up to 15°C cooler CPU temperatures. Used exclusively by ROG, this indium and galium compound offers the highest thermal transfer available on a laptop. And unlike typical pastes, liquid metal will also never dry out, improving long term stability.

0dB Ambient Cooling, zero distractions

Enjoy truly silent cooling under light workloads with 0dB Ambient Cooling. 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.

Arc Flow Fans™
move more air with less noise

Slim chassis leave little room for cooling, so we enhance every aspect of our Arc Flow fans. Traditional fan blades have a single thickness from base to tip. Our 84-blade Arc Flow Fans™ have a variable thickness design, down to 0.1mm at the tip. This approach reduces resonance and turbulence, moving up to 13% more air.*
*Compared to previous 83-blade ROG fan design, as tested internally by ASUS.

Targeted airflow
with Internal Blast Cooling

Internal Blast Cooling uses precisely calculated cutouts in the fan chamber to direct airflow toward internal components. When compared to more traditional designs, this allows for more efficient cooling, reducing CPU and GPU temperatures by up to 6°C. Lower temperatures mean higher sustained boost clocks during intense gaming sessions.

5 comprehensive heatpipes
have you covered

Our comprehensive solution uses up to five heatpipes and quad heatsinks for efficient dissipation across all internal components. More heatpipes means more efficient heat transfer, and unlike simpler designs which only cover the CPU and GPU, this layout also draws heat away from the VRAM and voltage regulation modules for better system stability.

0.1mm ultra thin fin
for the win

Thermal energy is dissipated by four heatsinks, each lined with ultrathin copper fins as slim as 0.1mm. These fins are half the size of typical solutions, allowing for higher heat dissipation with lower air resistance. There are up to 252 heatsink fins totaling 110,328mm² of surface area.

The key to victory

The Zephyrus Duo 16 sacrifices nothing. Utilizing NumberPad technology, the trackpad doubles as a full number pad to maximize space on the keyboard deck. N-key rollover ensures that each keypress is independently registered, giving you flexibility in game for complicated combos or accuracy for quick typing. A long 1.7mm key travel makes the Zephyrus Duo 16 very comfortable to type on, minimizing accidental keypresses as well. Per-key RGB and Aura Sync integration allows for robust preset and custom lighting patterns via Armoury Crate.

upgradeability

Replace. Refit. Rearm.

Upgradeability is key to keeping your machine running well for years to come—and the Zephyrus Duo allows you to upgrade both the RAM and storage to extend its lifespan. A special pop-open screw pushes the bottom of the chassis away from the laptop as it’s loosened. The hooks holding those edges together are smaller and stronger than before to make lifting off the panel easy. The Zephyrus Duo has dual SO-DIMMs and allows for future RAM upgrades. Both M.2 SSD slots are also accessible and expandable.

io port

Endless connectivity

Connect to all of your devices with a robust selection of I/O. A pair of USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C™ ports offer DisplayPort™ 1.4a, with power delivery support on one and G-Sync on the other. Two additional USB 3.2 Gen 2 round out connectivity for your peripherals. Enjoy HDMI 2.1 support for an external display, as well as a 2.5G ethernet port, dedicated microSD card reader, and an audio combo jack. Dongles begone!
