Q: QuestionWhat's the TGP of the 4070?(1 answer)
A: AnswerWe await the definitive answer from Asus. But until then, I have a tentative answer that I think may be correct. I think it may have the same laptop 4070 that is in its “sister” ROG Zephyrus G16 4070 Intel version with the Core Ultra 9 185H CPU, namely the $200 cheaper model GU605MI.U94070. The Intel and (to be released in July) AMD versions of the G16 are different colors but are essentially the same Asus chassis - so they most likely contain the same 4070 laptop GPU implementation. Assuming that’s true, then the AMD “brother” G16 with 4070 is likely 105 W TGP and 115 W Boost TGP just like its Intel sister. For the couple hundred extra bucks, the AMD brother G16 model gets you the new AMD Strix Point 12-core Ryzen AI HX 370 CPU that has (ballpark) 50% more total CPU Power (that is, higher all-core benchmarks).Answered by Anonymous
- A: AnswerI can't say 100% since I haven't opened mine up, but from what I've read elsewhere, yes, there's an additional SSD slot that would allow this. If you plan on being on battery a lot, be aware of the extra power draw of running two SSDs and running a super fast SSD like the 990 Pro. Toms Hardware has a good article on SSDs with a table showing the power draw and performance of most current SSD models.

Q: QuestionDoes it have vapor chamber or triple fan system for cooling(2 answers)
A: AnswerTipple fan. Only the 4080 and 4090 GPU variants have vapor chamber. And those are currently only available with intel CPUs. Personally, I would rather have the AMD CPU and take a little hit on GPU performance.Answered by AlexGP

Best Purchase for transitioning
As a previous owner of a Macbook Pro M1, this laptop makes switching no problems at at all. The performance this laptop offers is immense even when running on battery alone. The Oled screen makes enjoying watching videos amazing with accurate black and vibrant colors, with barely any glare from light showing. When it comes to gaming the colors look amazing and the 4070 gpu performs well. Fan noise on this laptop can get bit loud but only when pushing heavy immense software, when on battery or plug in it is silent. The weight of the laptop weighs less than macbook pro making it easier to carry around to college including with the battery brick. Even the laptop is under heavy load, keyboard remains cold to the touch only above the keyboard it builds up heat but there is no need to touch there. Speakers is another amazing part of this laptop. This G16 comes with front facing speakers that contain good amount of bass for songs and can get decently loud that rivals the macbook pro, making watching shows pleasing. Trackpad is large and glossy which makes transitioning easy and it is satisfying to use. Of course battery life is not as long compared to macbook but for a windows laptop is last pretty long throughout normal application usage with battery safety on. Only issue that can be for others users is that the ram is soldered making it hard to choose between this model or another with less ram with price difference. I can assure you if you run a lot of applications at once and gaming, this laptop runs perfectly smooth I have no regrets. Another thing is the second slot for storage is limited to PCIe Gen 4x2 speed if you plan adding more storage. If you are a macbook user thinking about transitioning to windows laptop, this one is perfect. Pros - Oled 240Hz Screen - 32Gb Ram - 4070 GPU - Satisfying keyboard - Great quality speakers Cons - Soldered Ram - Second ssd slot limited speed

Great Laptop and battery life, some imperfections
I recently got this laptop as an open-box item. I have to say that the performance is great, although it has frozen on me twice, and I had to turn it off. I’m not sure if this has something to do with an update, but other than that, the battery life is excellent. Mine also has coil whine, which can only be heard while charging. Could be annoying for some people, but definitely something to be aware of if you’re planning on buying this laptop.

Cool gamming laptop
Oh my, I used to have an Intel G16 2024 version, but this AMD refresh version does make a difference. The one point surprise me most is how cool and efficient this laptop is, unlike Intel version, it's fan often kick in for even light task such as Internet browsing. The battery seems to get a bit better but not very significant given how efficient the new horible naming AMD chip is. I could have given this review 5 start but my model have interet and Ethernet adapter failure, I have no chance to restore my wifi drivers so I ended up returning it. Not to even mention the pricing compared to how often Intel version get on sale.
