Incredible Comes From Originality
World’s first laptop with innovative AAS Ultra design
Zenbook Pro 16X OLED is a no-compromise creator laptop with a wealth of innovative design features and a brand-new all-metal design. It uses a world-leading 16:10 4K OLED HDR NanoEdge touchscreen1, and it’s powered by a 12th Gen Intel® processor and an NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 3060 GPU. The new Active Aerodynamic System Ultra (AAS Ultra) mechanism powers the auto-tilting keyboard that ensures a comfortable typing angle, and the system also enhances system cooling for maximum performance. There’s an all-new White RGB intelligent lighting system that enables smart interactivity features. The innovative ASUS Dial allows precise fingertip control of creative parameters in Adobe® apps, while the new larger ASUS NumberPad features haptic feedback and enhanced pressure sensitivity for easier number entry. Zenbook Pro 16X OLED redefines what a creator laptop should be, and helps you take your creativity to the next level.
Elevate your experience
The precision-engineered AAS Ultra mechanism raises the rear of the keyboard by up to 14.5 mm, tilting it by 7° when Zenbook Pro 16X OLED is opened. This positions it at the perfect angle for comfortable typing. It also enhances cooling by allowing 30% more airflow. This in turn reduces the laptop’s surface temperature by up to 7°C2, increasing both comfort and CPU performance. And finally, the tilting mechanism directs the sound from the dual tweeters to create a better stereo image for enhanced listening pleasure.
DESIGN
Created to create
With its sophisticated matte Tech Black livery, glossy detailing and all-metal construction, Zenbook Pro 16X OLED has a totally sophisticated look and feel. The unibody is CNC-machined for solidity from super-tough aerospace-grade 6000-series aluminum alloy, and the anti-fingerprint coating on the outer surfaces keeps the elegant finish pristine. Meanwhile, the lid features the iconic spun-metal Zenbook finish with our new illuminated monogram logo placed proudly in the center.
PERFORMANCE
Unrivaled performance
Delivering the ultimate performance, the flagship 12th Gen Intel Core i9-12900H processor in Zenbook Pro 16X OLED is capable of handling any creative task, and the studio-grade NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 GPU supplies effortless graphics power. To unleash the full capabilities of this powerful combination, the ASUS IceCool Pro cooling system works with the AAS Ultra technology to keep everything cool and unthrottled, even at the maximum 140-watt combined TDP. Additionally, 32 GB of fast RAM and an ultrafast 2 TB PCIe® 4.0 x4 SSD ensure there are no memory or storage bottlenecks to slow your creativity down.
THERMAL TECHNOLOGY
Stay cool with AAS Ultra and IceCool Pro
Zenbook Pro 16X OLED uses high-performance components that need to be cooled effectively in order to reach their full potential. This starts with the ASUS IceCool Pro cooling system, which uses two quiet IceBlades fans, each with 97 3D-curved blades. These cool the 3D vapor chamber and the aerospace-grade 5 mm heat pipe from the CPU and GPU, and the hot air is vented efficiently to the exterior via the new AAS Ultra mechanism with its 14.5 mm keyboard lift. The result is that the CPU and GPU can run at up to an 140 W combined TDP in Performance mode without throttling, and can run quieter than 40 dB in Standard mode.
CPU
Ultimate creative power
Empower your creativity with the latest 12th Gen Intel Core i9-12900H processor. It has fourteen cores for effortless multitasking and a Turbo Boost speed of up to 5.0 GHz. Its 85 W maximum TDP gives you the edge when it comes to CPU-heavy tasks, so you’ll be able to spend less time waiting and more time creating.
GPU
Studio-grade graphics
A high-performance GPU is essential when it comes to graphics-intensive graphics tasks such as cinematic-quality 3D rendering and high-resolution video editing. The studio-grade GeForce RTX 3060 GPU in Zenbook Pro 16X OLED has advanced AI-augmented features and capabilities that help it blitz through the toughest visual tasks. And for peace of mind, the best compatibility, performance and stability are assured by the NVIDIA Studio Driver.
INTELLIGENT LIGHTING
Shine smartly
Zenbook Pro 16X OLED adds a whole new dimension to your creative experience with its intelligent lighting system. As well as an illuminated monogram lid logo, there’s per-key White RGB keyboard backlighting, augmented by light bars on either side of the keyboard. This system enables a variety of smart interactive effects. When you power the laptop on or off, or switch performance modes, your laptop can display an exclusive light effect. If your battery’s low on juice, all the lights will glow red. Plug in a USB device to see yet another light effect, and when you receive a new email you’ll get a handy visual reminder. You can also configure a variety of animated ambient lighting modes to match your mood or the atmosphere of the room.
