QuestionWhen will this restock? Did Best Buy actually just sell all of their available units via preorders?
Asked 2 years ago by Jim99.
- Answer Yes, it was sold out during pre orders. I tried for 3 days to get a pre order and they were all gone within minutes. There is a company in CA that bought a ton of the pre orders and is now selling them for a higher price.

QuestionIs the RAM and SSD upgradable on the laptop, and is there one or two M.2 slots available?
Asked 2 years ago by CalebB.
- Answer There are two NVMe ports and one of them is occupied by the 1 TB NVME drive and the second is available for installing a NVMe. There are two RAM slots both of them occupied by 8 GB Samsung chips. According to Asus you can put in up to 32 GB of RAM but you cannot upgrade this RAM speed due to limitations in the BIOS that they haven't fixed yet but maybe upgradeable in the future.

Asked 2 years ago by Alex.
- Answer Max capacity is 2 x 32GB total 64GB. Asus updated bios so that DDR5 5600 MT/s kits work. With 64GB it will drop 5600 MT/s to 5200 MT/s. Most people are using Kingston Fury impact 5600MT/s 32GB or 64GB CL40 kits.

QuestionThis laptop should support pcie x16 for the gfx card. My exp w/Asus laptops, tend to share pcie bus w/storage components. i.e. their i-12900H laptop (M16), 2 x NVME would take x8 lanes leaving on x8 for the gfx. Will this laptop use all x16 for gfx?
Asked 1 year ago by QA.
- Answer So, even though this laptop utilizes the i9-13980HX processor which does support x16 dedicated gfx pcie lanes while having capability to dedicate non gfx lanes for other pcie capable devices (nvme, etc), according to asus, it still only uses x8 of them. What a waste of resources Asus... :-(
