Dolby Atmos
Richer audio draws you more deeply into gameplay and media. Virtual 5.1.2-channel surround sound powered by Dolby Atmos enhances spatial immersion with more nuanced, layered sound effects that you can optimize with specially tuned preset modes for movies and games.

AI Noise Cancellation
Our advanced Two-Way AI Noise cancellation technology runs on the CPU, which frees up the GPU to hit higher framerates. It works with any input device and also with downstream connections, letting you remove noise from both your own mic input and from incoming feeds. Noise-canceling settings can even be customized per program, filtering specific apps like voice chat without affecting game audio you want to remain untouched.

  • Produkter certificeret af Federal Communications Commission og Industry Canada vil blive distribueret i USA og Canada. Besøg ASUS's websites for USA og Canada for oplysninger om lokalt tilgængelige produkter.
  • Alle specifikationer kan ændres uden varsel. Spørg din forhandler angående de præcise tilbud. Produkter er muligvis ikke til rådighed overalt.
  • Specifikationer og funktioner varierer fra model til model, og alle billeder er vejledende. Kik på siderne med specifikationer for at få alle oplysninger.
  • PCB farver og medfølgende softwareversioner kan ændres uden varsel.
  • Mærke- og produktnavne er varemærker tilhørende de respektive firmaer.

IPS står for in-plane switching, der er en type LED-skærmpanelteknologi (LED er i sig selv en underart af LCD).

Den reelle overførselshastighed for USB 3.0, 3.1, 3.2 og/eller Type C afhænger af mange faktorer, herunder værtsenhedens processorhastighed, filattributter og andre faktorer i forbindelse med systemkonfiguration og dit driftsmiljø.

Ultrabook, Celeron, Celeron Inside, Core Inside, Intel, Intel-logo, Intel Atom, Intel Atom Inside, Intel Core, Intel Inside, Intel Inside-logo, Intel vPro, Itanium, Itanium Inside, Pentium, Pentium Inside, vPro Inside, Xeon, Xeon Phi, Xeon Inside og Intel Optane er varemærker tilhørende Intel Corporation eller dets datterselskaber i USA og/eller andre lande.

Produktspecifikationerne kan være forskellige fra land til land. Vi anbefaler, at du tjekker din lokale forhandler vedrørende specifikationerne for de produkter, der er tilgængelige i dit land. Farverne på produkter kan ske ikke at være helt præcise, som følge af forskelligheder i fotograferingen og indstillingerne på din monitor. Selv om vi bestræber os efter at give de mest præcise og fuldstændige oplysninger på tidspunktet for udgivelsen af disse oplysninger, forbeholder vi os retten til at foretage ændringer uden forudgående varsel.

  • Prisen inkluderer muligvis ikke ekstra gebyr, herunder skat, forsendelse, håndtering, genbrugsgebyr.
  • Hvad angår prisoplysninger, har ASUS kun ret til at fastsætte en anbefalet videresalgspris. Alle forhandlere kan frit fastsætte deres egen pris, som de ønsker.
  • Tilgængeligheden af 6GHz Wi-Fi-båndet kan variere afhængigt af landet og dets specifikke regler. Denne funktion understøttes kun, når den bruges sammen med det specifikke trådløse kort, der leveres ved leveringen, og kræver Windows 11 eller nyere.

* Resultat fra mobiles Mark 2014 office productivity.

*Asus' standard testmiljø for batterilevetid er som følger: Windows-operativsystem, skærmmodul med 150 nit lysstyrke, slukket lys og andre programindstillinger.

Videoafspilning: Testen udføres med wi-fi/Bluetooth slukket, Windows' strømstyringsplan indstillet til balanceret, proceslinjens strømstyringsplan indstillet til strømsparetilstand, systemets lydstyrke på 67 % og videoafspilning i fuld skærm med 1080p opløsning.

Webbrowsing: Testen udføres med wi-fi/Bluetooth, Windows' strømstyringsplan indstillet til balanceret, proceslinjens strømstyringsplan indstillet til strømsparetilstand og brug af Weblooper Top50-webstedet i Google Chrome til at afspille videoen med en opdateringsfrekvens på 10 sekunder.

*Faktorer, der påvirker batterilevetiden, omfatter den bærbare computers konfiguration, strømindstillinger og den måde, den bruges på. Batterikapaciteten falder med antallet af afladnings-/genopladningscyklusser og alderen.

*Tidsangivelsen for hurtig opladning gælder, når du bruger den korrekte ASUS/ROG-oplader, der følger med den pågældende model, og oplader systemet mens det er slukket (via kommandoen "luk ned"). Under de rette forhold kan batterier genoplades til 50 % inden for 30 minutter, når temperaturen er inden for det optimale område på 20-45 grader Celsius. Opladningstiden kan variere +/- 10 % på grund af systemtolerance.

Testene omfatter kravene i såvel militærstandarder som ASUS-kvalitetstest og varierer efter enhed. MIL-STD-810-test udføres kun på udvalgte ASUS-produkter. Bemærk, at MIL-STD-810-testen hjælper med at sikre kvaliteten af ASUS-produkter, men indikerer ikke en særlig egnethed til militær brug. Testen udføres under laboratorieforhold. Enhver skade forårsaget af forsøg på at gengive disse testforhold vil blive betragtet som et uheld og dækkes ikke af ASUS' standardgaranti. Yderligere garantidækning fås i form af ASUS Premium Care.

Den faktiske HDMI-version af produkterne bør kontrolleres på henholdsvis produktspecifikationssiden.

Enhed med RJ45-port understøtter ikke "Power over Ethernet" (PoE), understøtter kun datatransmission.

Bemærk venligst, at dette Xbox Game Pass-tilbud skal indløses inden for 180 dage efter aktivering af Windows. Systemer, der ikke har aktiveret Windows inden for to år efter deres fremstillingsdato, vil ikke være i stand til at indløse dette tilbud.

På grund af overflademonterede komponenter i nærheden af bundkortets M.2-slot understøttes kun enkeltsidede SSD'er.

Driverne på denne pc er kun kompatible med Windows 11 version 24H2 eller nyere. For at sikre optimal funktionalitet og undgå potentielle problemer må du ikke manuelt installere en ældre version af operativsystemet.
