NEBULA DISPLAY​
OLED Is Here

For the first time on an ROG laptop, enjoy the ultra-fast response times and incredible contrast ratios that are only possible with OLED technology. This panel also boasts a 2.5K resolution, giving it incredible pixel density on a 16-inch screen, with a 240Hz refresh rate that makes all of your games look silky smooth. With 100% coverage of the DCI-P3 color space, a delta E color accuracy of less than 1, and VESA HDR True Black 500 certification, prepare to be immersed in HDR content so lifelike that the screen melts away.

*Average tested result in MyASUS/ Armoury Crate Splendid Display P3 and sRGB color gamut: Delta E < 1, +/- 0.5, and may vary by specification. Please note that the actual performance also may vary under different test procedures, equipment and patterns.

FAST
Leading OLED Panels With G-SYNC Support OLED displays have an ultrafast 0.2ms response time, which ensures smoother fast-paced action scenes, low-latency gameplay, and subtle details like blur-free text scrolling.

BRIGHT 1,000,000:1 Ultra-High Contrast Ratio
OLED displays have millions of light-emitting diodes (LED), and unlike traditional display technologies, they can turn each pixel on and off individually. Because of this, OLED panels can achieve pixel-perfect black levels, resulting in extreme contrast ratios like 1,000,000:1. This true black allows for images that appear bright and punchy without feeling washed out, ensuring you never miss an enemy hiding in the shadows. HDR has never looked this good.

VIVID
2.5K Resolution

Enjoy incredibly vivid scenes thanks to the added visual fidelity offered by a 2.5K resolution. With a higher pixel density than 1440p, 2.5K displays allow the true vibrance of both still images and video content to truly shine

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.

DOLBY VISION®
TECHNOLOGY
Scene to scene, frame to frame, Dolby Vision makes media look better. The technology improves on standard 4K high dynamic range (HDR) video, dynamically adjusting visuals to make every image in front of you richer, brighter, and livelier. Creators can film and edit their streams, videos, and other content in a format commonly used by industry professionals.

PANTONE® COLOR VALIDATION
Each IPS-level display is factory-calibrated to ensure that colors are accurate to the Pantone palette. Artists, designers, and content creators can add high-quality content to their portfolios and enjoy richer gaming visuals all on the same machine.

100% DCI-P3 COLOR COVERAGE
While the sRGB color space is the standard for most digital visuals, it only represents about 75% of the DCI-P3 spectrum used for professional filmmaking. Displays with complete DCI-P3 coverage offer a wide color gamut for more vibrant images, and with a Delta E of less than 1*, the Zephyrus G16's display lets you experience films and other media exactly the way they were meant to be seen.

*Average tested result in MyASUS / Armoury Crate Splendid Display P3 and sRGB color gamut: Delta E < 1, +/- 0.5, and may vary by specification. Please note that the actual performance also may vary under different test procedures, equipment and patterns,

THERMAL
Cool, Calm, Collected​
ROG Intelligent Cooling is a suite of components that work together in harmony to keep our high-performance laptops cool and quiet. The Zephyrus G16 boasts some never-before-seen additions to ROG’s list of cooling technologies, including improved heatpipes, Tri Fan Technology, 2nd Generation Arc Flow Fans™, and a redesigned high-efficiency air outlet. Taken together, these systems keep the machine operating at its peak while staying quieter than ever.

TRI-FAN TECHNOLOGY
Our Tri-Fan Technology directs air though precisely calculated cutouts in the chassis, sending airflow directly towards internal components to keep them cool in all conditions. A third auxiliary fan sends additional heat from the GPU and VRAM directly to the heatsinks, keeping the machine cool during long video renders or gaming sessions.

LIQUID METAL
Liquid metal compound from Thermal Grizzly reduces CPU temperatures by up to 13°C compared to standard thermal paste. Applying it onto CPUs is delicate work, so ROG commissioned custom equipment to automate the process with mechanical precision, and designed a patented internal fence to contain the compound.

HEATSINK
At the heart of every great laptop is a great cooling solution. Despite its ultra-thin chassis, the Zephyrus G16 features a dual exhaust heatsink that helps to efficiently pass heat outside the machine for sustained performance. By placing these heatsinks closer to the chassis, heated air travels more efficiently out of the machine than ever before, reducing recirculation.

DUST FILTER
Dust and fibers can collect inside the machine, trapping heat and causing degraded performance over time. A filter over the air intakes helps keep dust out, allowing the CPU and GPU to breathe easier for years of smooth and stable operation.

EXHAUST VENTS
The Zephyrus G16 features a dual exhaust heatsink, with one next to the laptop's rubber feet, exhausting air downward, and one at the rear of the machine, exhausting air underneath our new display hinge and keeping it away from the screen.

REDESIGNED KEYBOARD
Previous keyboard designs focused on keeping the chassis temperatures cool, keeping your fingers comfortable during long gaming sessions. The newly redesigned keyboard not only keeps your hands comfortable on the trackpad and keyboard deck but increases air intake for the main system components as well, boosting the Zephyrs G16's cooling performance without increasing weight or chassis size.

CONTROL
Keys To Mastery
The trackpad and keyboard are critical for controlling your laptop, so we spared no expense with the design of the Zephyrus G16. Despite being just a 16-inch device, the G16 boasts a large 16:10 aspect ratio, matching the proportions of the screen itself effortless scrolling. We’ve also increased the keycap size by 12% for smoother typing as well, thanks to extra rigidity from the CNC machining. An extra long 1.7mm travel distance gives the keyboard a premium typing feel, and with a lifetime of 20 million presses, it’s a perfect long-term partner.

AURA SYNC
Aura Sync support allows you to easily pair and color coordinate all of your ROG RGB equipped peripherals

Windows Hello
An infrared camera ensures seamless unlocking with Windows Hello support, even in low light conditions.
