Obviously everyone overlooked this during computex.
ASUS TUF Gaming 16 (2026)
Up to 14650HX+5070 8G 85W with only 105W cpu+gpu TDP, while having same weight and thickness as the 170W full powered F16 FX608.
They do it to control the price, but being DDR5 only doesn't help.
Core Logic Module
Rather than MoP, it's more like the RPL-PX SoM design last seen on ASUS. It comes with smartphone's 496-ball chips not the custom 563-ball on LNL likely for better supply.
I don't have pictures this year😅
But here you go, still uses Z2 Extreme.

Intel's DG2-512 is also tsmc 6nm and the die size is 406mm², scaling down cores according to size 4096*312/406=3147 would make A580 comparable. In that case 7G100's debut is not bad.

Mechrevo’s 18” 12GB version is actually cheaper than 8GB version, 11299rmb≈1650usd vs 11499rmb≈1680usd.
BTW this 3GB die still runs at 24Gbps.

Confirmed for Strix Scar 2026, together with thicker and heavier body allows higher power. Screen upgrades to 4K and it also gets csodimm out of the box.
It's already available on taobao, the 520W part seems to be removed on this retail version. So maybe this is just for a refresh of Strix Scar with 290HX Plus.
