GIGABYTE just released the new AERO X16 laptop. This ultra-thin computer is built for creators and gamers, packing new AI features into a highly portable design.
The AERO X16 features the powerful AMD Ryzen AI 9 465 processor. It also includes an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Laptop GPU with 12GB of VRAM. This combination gives users strong graphics performance for gaming or running complex AI software locally.
Despite its fast hardware, the laptop checks in at just 1.9 kg and is 16.75mm thick. The computer uses a special WINDFORCE Infinity cooling system to keep the device from overheating during heavy workloads.
The display is an IPS screen with a sharp 2.5K resolution and a fast 165Hz refresh rate. It delivers accurate colors, which is highly important for photo and video editing.
GIGABYTE also added its own GiMATE AI software to help with coding and generating images directly on the machine. The laptop supports up to 14 hours of battery life and is available in Lunar White and Space Gray colors.
