Can I upgrade the RAM or SSD?

The RAM is LPDDR5x-SDRAM and is on-board, meaning it is not user-upgradable. The laptop has a 2 TB SSD installed, but further upgradeability of the SSD would depend on available M.2 slots and physical space, which is not specified in the product details.

While the laptop features Thunderbolt 4 ports which can support eGPUs, official compatibility and performance with external GPUs is not specified. It is recommended to check with ASUS support for confirmed compatibility.

The ASUS ROG Zephyrus G16 comes pre-installed with Windows 11 Home 64-bit.

How fast is the charging?

The laptop supports Fast Charging, capable of reaching 50% battery in approximately 30 minutes using a 100W USB-C PD charger. The included 250W AC adapter will provide full-speed charging.

Yes, the laptop includes an integrated card reader compatible with SD memory cards.

What is the warranty period?

Warranty information is not provided in the product details. Please refer to the ASUS official website or your point of purchase for warranty terms and conditions.

Troubleshooting

Laptop not turning on

Ensure the AC adapter is securely connected to both the laptop and a working power outlet. Try a different outlet. If the issue persists, press and hold the power button for 15 seconds to perform a hard reset.

Slow performance or stuttering in games/applications

Check that the laptop is plugged into AC power, as performance may be throttled on battery. Ensure background applications are closed. Update graphics drivers and Windows. Verify that the performance cores are not being consistently maxed out by non-essential processes.

Wi-Fi connection issues

Restart your router and modem. Ensure Wi-Fi is enabled on the laptop. Update the Wi-Fi driver via Device Manager or the ASUS support website. Check if Wi-Fi 7 is supported by your router; if not, ensure the laptop is connecting via a compatible standard (e.g., Wi-Fi 6).

Display flickering or visual anomalies

Ensure graphics drivers are up-to-date. Check for any physical damage to the display. If using an external monitor, test it with a different cable or port. Adjust the display refresh rate in Windows display settings.

Overheating during heavy use

Ensure laptop vents are clear of dust and obstructions. Use a cooling pad. Avoid using the laptop on soft surfaces that can block airflow. Adjust fan settings in the ASUS Armoury Crate software if available.

Care: To maintain performance and longevity, keep the laptop's vents clear of obstructions to ensure proper airflow.
