Notes on Performance

The ROG Zephyrus M16 offers excellent gaming and creative performance but may generate noticeable fan noise and heat under heavy loads due to its 240W power draw. Users report CPU temperatures reaching 96°C and GPU up to 90°C during intense gaming, which may cause thermal throttling. Consider using a cooling pad for prolonged high-performance tasks. For video editing, performance is strong on AC power but may be limited on battery.
