Asus ROG Strix G16 RTX 5070 Ti Gaming Laptop for $1,268
Open Box – Excellent Condition
The Asus ROG Strix G16 gaming laptop features a 16″ 1920×1200 IPS display, AMD Ryzen 9 8940HX processor, GeForce RTX 5070 Ti GPU, 16GB of DDR5-5600MHz, and a 1TB NVMe SSD. It measures 0.9″ thin and weighs about 5.5 pounds. It’s not the lightest laptop on the block, but that’s because the Strix models put more emphasis on maximum performance and cooling. This is a pretty high-end model from Asus, sitting just under the Scar lineup and side by side with the Zephyrus lineup. The top lid boasts solid aluminum construction, but the base is made of plastic to keep the weight down and reduce heat transfer to the keyboard and palm area so that your hands don’t get toasty while gaming.
The GeForce RTX 5070 Ti mobile GPU can handle the most demanding games
The RTX 5070 Ti mobile GPU is comparable in performance to the previous generation’s RTX 4080 and pulls ahead of it in games that support DLSS 4 and multi-frame generation. It should easily be able to handle even the newest and most demanding games like Ghost of Yotei, Battlefield 6, and Borderlands 4 on the native 1920×1200 display.
