The RTX 5070 version of the Strix G16 - the same sixteen-core Ryzen 9, with the graphics card that makes the 2.5K panel make sense.
Quick Specs
- AMD Ryzen 9 8940HX, 16 cores / 32 threads, up to 5.3GHz
- NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Laptop GPU, 8GB GDDR7
- 16GB DDR5, 1TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD
- 16" 2.5K (2560 x 1600) IPS-level, 100% DCI-P3, G-Sync with MUX switch
- Windows 11 Home
The step up from the RTX 5060 model
R10 570 more than the Strix G16 with the RTX 5060, for one tier more graphics. Whether that is worth it depends entirely on the resolution you play at. On the built-in 2.5K panel, the 5070 is the difference between turning settings down in demanding titles and leaving them up - and if you intend to actually use 2560 x 1600 rather than run games at 1080p on a 1440p screen, it is the right card for this laptop. At 1080p on an external monitor, the cheaper model will not hold you back and you should save the money.
Memory, as ever
16GB with a sixteen-core processor is the same slight imbalance that runs through the AMD machines in this range. Both SO-DIMM slots are user-accessible and the chassis takes 64GB, so a second stick is a straightforward and inexpensive fix if your work needs it. Games are fine at 16GB today.

Why ASUS?
The Strix chassis has the cooling headroom to let an RTX 5070 run the way it should, which not every 16-inch laptop does. Warranty on this particular build is listed as 1 year - most ROG Strix models carry 3 - so ask us to confirm before you order if that is part of your decision.

Questions
Before you buy
What is inside this laptop?
RTX 5070 graphics, 16GB DDR5 of memory and a 16" 2.5K 240Hz display. The full configuration, including storage and ports, is in the Specifications section above.
Can I upgrade the memory or storage later?
It varies by model - some laptops have sockets you can reach behind a service panel, others solder the memory to the board. Whatever this one supports is listed under Specifications, and opening the machine yourself can affect the warranty. Ask us before you buy an upgrade and we will confirm what will fit.
Is it in stock, and when will it ship?
This one is out of stock at the moment. Stock does come back in - WhatsApp us on 079 491 0181 with the model and we will tell you what the supplier is showing and let you know when it lands, rather than leaving you to keep checking the page.
What does delivery cost, and how long does it take?
We deliver by courier anywhere in South Africa, and delivery is R180 on orders under R2 500 and free on orders of R2 500 or more. It takes 1-3 working days to Johannesburg, Pretoria, Cape Town, Durban and areas within 100km of them, and 2-4 working days to areas more than 100km from a major centre, counted from the day the order is dispatched. Need it sooner? Express delivery is 1-2 working days for R210, or R150 on orders of R2 500 or more - choose it at checkout. We do not ship outside South Africa.
Can I collect instead of having it delivered?
Yes. Collection is from 11 Voortrekker Avenue, Edenvale, Gauteng, by arrangement - message us first so we can have the order picked and waiting. We are open 09:00 to 16:30, Monday to Friday.
What warranty does it carry, and how do I claim?
The warranty period for this product is listed at the end of the Specifications section above. Claims go through us, not the manufacturer - contact us with your order number and a description of the fault and we will handle it from there. Separately from any warranty, the Consumer Protection Act gives you six months from delivery to return goods that are defective, unsafe or not fit for their intended purpose.
What if I change my mind?
You have 14 days from delivery to change your mind - longer than the seven days the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act requires. The item needs to be unused and in its original packaging, and we pay the return shipping. Refunds go back to the payment method you used, within 30 days of the return reaching us.
How can I pay?
Payments are processed by Stitch. At the last step of checkout you are taken to Stitch’s secure page to pay, and brought back here once it is done. Your card details are entered on Stitch’s secure, PCI-compliant page and never touch our systems.
