ASUS ROG Flow X16 specs

ASUS ROG Flow X16 specifications

The most powerful in the ASUS ROG Flow series previously was the ASUS ROG Flow Z13 which we reviewed earlier in 2022. This 13.4″ device had a maximum spec option of an Intel Core i9-12900H CPU and a RTX 3050 Ti laptop GPU (with a max TGP of 40W). Although the RTX 3070 Ti laptop graphics card is weaker than some found in other full-sized laptops with the same GPU, at 125W it is still much more powerful than the Flow Z13. The improved three fan system with additional cooling vents and liquid metal cooling for the CPU minimizes the thermal throttling on these components, despite the small chassis.

Combined with the 16″ 165Hz display (with a reported 3ms response time) this looks to be an impressive gaming machine for such a thin device, that would also work as a superb laptop for creatives, given its 100% DCI-P3 gamut coverage and bright Mini LED DisplayHDR touchscreen.

ASUS ROG Flow X16 release date

ASUS confirmed that the ASUS ROG Flow X16 release date was in Q3 2022 though we were never given a specific date, and have just seen a gradual trickling out of the laptop on certain retailers (which is pretty typical of the company).

ASUS ROG Flow X16 price

ASUS has confirmed that the ASUS ROG Flow X16 price will begin at £2,799.99 in the UK, though the US pricing is more unclear at this stage. We’re beginning to see listings for this price on Amazon UK, even for the higher specced RTX 3070 Ti version, which is actually somewhat cheaper than we expected.

We’ve seen US models go for $3,169 on Newegg US, but this is only for the RTX 3060-equipped version.
