Cleaning after the initial ROG announcements at CES 2024, ASUS also followed up with several new TUF Gaming products in the form of F16, A16, and A15 gaming laptops refresh.
The classic formula is still here to stay – simpler designs, hard-hitting performance, and compliance with MIL-STD-810H standards. In terms of computing parts, the F16 is going for the Intel Core i7-13650HX and up to NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 GPU while the A16 does so with AMD Ryzen 9 7845HX and up to NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 GPU. Lastly, the returning A15 carries the latest AMD Ryzen 8000 series CPU and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 40 series Laptop GPU (Actual SKU still unknown for both). Memory options for all three machines are DDR5 RAM at various frequencies and capacities with up to 32GB while storage capacities are also configurable.
What’s a bit different this time around is the redesigned chassis for the F16 and A16 going for a cleaner look carrying a mecha theme painted in colorways of Jaeger Gray and Mecha Gray. As for I/O, both of them provide USB-C PD for easy charging and less cable trouble, and for the specifics, the F16 was given Thunderbolt 4, and the A16 sports USB-C 3.0 with the A15 finishing up with some USB-C 4.0.
Now to the screens. The F16 and A16 run a better 16-inch 16:10 while the A15 maintains a more conventional 16:9 15-inch but all models run at 2.5K resolution and 165Hz with G-SYNC support. The audio department is also great with Dolby Atmos support and Hi-Res Audio certification.
