“Can you upgrade the RAM? Or is it stuck at 32 GB? Only main concern i got is the weirdly small amount of 8 GB of VRAM considering it has a 5070 built in, maybe the 5060 option might be better? Also, just 85W will hold back the 5070, could it be upgraded?”

Thank you for your interest in the AERO X16. System Memory (RAM): The AERO X16 comes with 32GB DDR5 pre-installed, but it supports upgrades up to 64GB DDR5 5600MHz through two SO-DIMM slots. This allows flexibility if you require more memory for creative workloads. Graphics Memory (VRAM): The built-in GeForce RTX™ 5070 Laptop GPU is equipped with 8GB GDDR7 VRAM. VRAM is a fixed specification and cannot be expanded or upgraded. GPU Power (TGP): The RTX™ 5070 in this model is configured up to 85W TGP. This value is designed to balance performance, thermals, and battery life within the thin-and-light chassis. TGP is set by design and is not user upgradeable. RTX™ 5060 Option: The RTX™ 5060 configuration is also available on the AERO X16. While it is a capable GPU, the RTX™ 5070 generally delivers stronger overall performance, even when both carry 8GB of VRAM. If your workflow is particularly VRAM-sensitive, we recommend reviewing the software/game requirements to choose the configuration that best fits your usage. We hope this helps clarify. Please let us know if you have any further questions!
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.1. According to the artwork, you can upgrade to 64GB RAM--you barely need to know how to read! However, the GPU on laptops is typically soldered in, so you probably can't change that. 2. This is not Reddit, which would be a better place to debate the virtues of a 5060 vs. a 5070. 3. For TGP, see #1 above.
