This generation of the Asus ROG Strix G16 is one of the most powerful notebooks available in the mid-tier segments this year. In fact, this is a simplified variation of the Scar 16, with similar barebones, but fewer bells and whistles. And a more competitive price. Potential buyers will, however, have to accept the somewhat questionable aspects of the aesthetics and ergonomics of this series, as well as the fact that the internals run quite hot with demanding loads.
