NVIDIA® G-SYNC Technology

Nothing breaks in-game immersion like stuttering and tearing. GPUs render frames at variable rates, but displays usually refresh at a constant clip, so they can get out of sync, causing visible hitching and artifacts that pull you out of the action. ROG is proud to introduce the first-ever OLED display in a laptop capable of using NVIDIA® G-SYNC, which allows the refresh rate of the display to synchronize with the GPU’s frame rate to eliminate visual tearing, minimize stuttering, and reduce input lag.

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

Manufacturing Processes
Carving out channels for the keyboard, touchpad, and speakers with ultra-tight tolerances allow them to lay edge-to-edge. Maximum space, maximum efficiency.
Each keyhole, and the nearby keyboard vents, are milled individually. This gives the metal a more premium finish and maintains structural strength to minimize keyboard flex when the chassis is fully assembled.
The holes for the speakers are drilled at a super high 100,000 RPM, allowing for ultra-tight tolerances and a design that spans from one edge of the machine to the other.

Sometimes, bigger does mean better. The Zephyrus G16 has larger woofers compared to the previous generation. This size increase allows for both louder volumes and clearer and richer sounds at lower volumes. These woofers are also able to hit much lower frequencies, for deeper bass tones than you’d expect from a thin-and-light-laptop.
