To ring in the new year with power and the best possible gaming performance, ASUS Republic of Gamers (ROG) Philippines has announced the availability and prices of two tough gaming laptops: the tough, popular ASUS TUF Gaming A16 Advantage Edition, and the powerful dual-screen beast Zephyrus Duo 16.
TUF Gaming A16 Advantage Edition
The brand-new TUF Gaming A16 Advantage Edition is a stylish gaming laptop designed to crush the competition. It is engineered for serious gaming and has a subtle style. The TUF Gaming A16, which is entirely powered by AMD, includes an AMD Radeon RX 7600s GPU with AMD Smart Access Graphics and up to an AMD Ryzen 7 Zen 4 processor.
Even additional upgrades include 4800 MHz DDR5 RAM to keep applications and games responsive and up to 2 TB of PCIe Gen4 storage to accommodate even the largest game libraries.
With its unique anodized aluminum finish, this edition adds a brand-new Sandstorm colorway to the lineup, the ideal paint job for a laptop made for the military.
Also, it has a professional-grade immersive 16-inch WUXGA 165HZ refresh rate panel with small bezels and a massive 90% screen-to-body ratio. With the help of AMD FreeSync Premium technology, visual tearing, stuttering, and latency are all reduced or completely eliminated for incredibly smooth and lifelike gameplay.

ROG Zephyrus Duo 16
The main screen of the Zephyrus Duo 16 maintains its status as a dual-screen powerhouse thanks to its 240 Hz WQXGA, 16:10, ROG Nebula Panel, which uses mini-LEDs to produce an eye-watering 1100 nits of peak brightness.
The new Corning Gorilla Glass DXC and anti-fingerprint coating on the updated ROG ScreenPad Plus, which rises to meet the main display as the laptop is opened, eliminates surface reflections and scratch marks for better viewing in outdoor and bright conditions.
With up to an AMD Ryzen 9 Zen 4 processor with 16 cores that is overclockable with Precision Boost Overdrive and up to an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 GPU with 175 Max TGP and MUX Switch to ensure incredible in-game framerates and content creation acceleration, this beast of a machine can now be pushed even further.
