0DB Ambient Cooling
Enjoy truly silent cooling under light workloads with 0dB Ambient Cooling technology. In the Silent operating mode, the cooling system switches off all fans during everyday tasks to dissipate heat passively. This lets you concentrate on your work and immerse yourself in movies with less distraction. If CPU or GPU temperatures increase, the fans automatically switch on again.
Never Miss a Moment
Keep up with the pros thanks to a WUXGA 1920 x 1200 165Hz display. NVIDIA G-SYNC synchronises the display’s refresh rate with the GPU’s output to reduce lag, minimise stuttering, and eliminate visual tearing for ultra-smooth and lifelike gameplay. The FHD+ panel hits 100% of the sRGB colour space, and when packed into a 16-inch chassis, this resolution boasts an incredible pixel density, ensuring your videos and games are as immersive as possible without sacrificing portability.
Built to Move
At only 2.20kg, the TUF Gaming A16 is ready to travel anywhere — and built-in WiFi 6E will keep you connected at lightning-fast speeds wherever you go. Its 90Wh battery provides plenty of juice even without an outlet nearby, and it can fast charge to 50% in only 30 minutes when you need a quick top-off.
Safe Port in a Storm
No matter your setup, the TUF Gaming A16 will keep you connected. A dedicated HDMI 2.1 port is supplemented by dual USB Type-C with DisplayPort support, as well as the power and versatility of USB 4. Fast and reliable Wi-Fi 6E (802.11ax) ensures that you’ll be able to get online and be productive wherever compatible connections are available, or you can wire up directly with gigabit Ethernet on-board.
