A:AnswerOnly the 4080 and 4090 models in the US have the AniMatrix. Can confirm that this has 1x 16gb installed. Makes upgrading to 32gb a bit cheaper.
A:AnswerWhen I had the 2021 G15 Zephyrus model it came with 8 GB of memory soldered to the motherboard and I added 32 GB of RAM in the only open DIMM slot. Never had any issues. There is a performance benefit to dual channel, but I don't think it will be a deal breaker. I will say with 4800 MHz DDR 5 cost coming down I was able to buy 2 x 32 GB for around $174.00 on Amazon.
A:AnswerThis laptop does have usb-c connection you can use for display, but it also has an HDMI connection as well. The only thing it does not have is an Ethernet port. So, if you want to connect to a cable, versus wireless only, you will need to purchase an external dock. I have a WAVLINK WL-UMD502.
A:AnswerIt all depends on what software you plan to use. I play a couple games on it and it can last about 3 hours with maxed out settings on a game. If I use fl studio which is what it's normally for I get about 5 if im lucky. But you should be able to get more if you tune your battery settings right. I use max brightness also which doesn't help.
A:AnswerThe audio level is decent and uses Dolby ATMOS immersive sound technology. No, the keyboard backlit is only 1-Zone, different color cannot be setup. All ASUS products are built to last, the AC port is durable.
A:AnswerThe USB-C power delivery is still the same on both models, it will charge the battery with the laptop shutdown. However, the laptop will not run through USB-C if the battery was completely drained.
