SERIOUS GAMING SPECS
The 16-inch laptop in the TUF Gaming family, the A16 boasts some seriously impressive specs, giving you access to the very best of gaming on Windows 11. Featuring an AMD® Ryzen™ 7 260 processor and up to an NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 5070 Laptop GPU, the A18 can easily play the latest games or keep your workflow on schedule.
NEXT GENERARTION POWER
Get ready for game-changing performance with the NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 5070 Laptop GPU inside our 2025 TUF Gaming A16. Sporting cutting-edge technologies like DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation and Ray Tracing, the A16 delivers incredible experiences in the latest and most graphically intense games.
ROBUST PERFORMANCE
Equipped with a AMD® Ryzen™ 7 260 processor boasting 8 cores and 16 threads, the TUF Gaming A16 is a gaming monster. Whether you’re gaming, streaming, or anything in between, the A16 has all of the horsepower you need to stay on top of the leaderboard.
HELP IS ALWAYS AT HAND
Copilot in Windows 11 complements your capabilities and creativity with intelligent assistance and relevant answers.
EXPAND YOUR POWER
The TUF Gaming A16 features up to 2TB of PCIe Gen 4 storage, plenty even for gamers with the largest libraries. With a total of up to 32GB of high-speed DDR5 memory, everything from basic multi-tasking to demanding games will run smoothly. Best of all, both the storage and memory are fully accessible and upgradeable, giving you flexibility for the future.
ALL NEW DESIGN
The very first 16-inch laptop in the TUF Gaming family, the A16 is packed with killer features that take full advantage of that extra space. Featuring a 16:10 aspect ratio 2.5K resolution display, a full keyboard with a built-in numpad, an extra-large trackpad, and a 90Wh battery, the TUF Gaming A18 is the perfect mobile battlestation, all in one package.
MILITARY GRADE TOUGHNESS
In order to earn the TUF Gaming name, these laptops must successfully survive a rigorous battery of MIL-STD-810H tests. Test devices are exposed to drops, vibration, humidity, and extreme temperatures to ensure reliability. Dependable even in the harshest conditions, the A16 is more than capable of withstanding the accidental bumps and knocks of everyday life.
KEEP YOUR COOL
Powerful components require powerful cooling, so we’ve equipped the TUF Gaming A16 with a whole suite of technology to keep it running at peak performance. A full-width heatsink spans the entire rear of the machine, supplied with air from the 2nd Gen Arc Flow Fans™ inspired by aircraft engines. Combined with integrated dust filters and a complex network of heatpipes, the A16 will never lose its cool.
2ND GEN ARC FLOW FANS
We’ve added small bends at the end of each of the 84 primary blades that improve both motor efficiency and turbulence. The fans also now feature a dual-impeller design, with a smaller set of 42 fan blades inside that allow more air to be sucked through with each rotation, similar to a jet turbine. These fans consume 16% less power while increasing airflow by 11%, enabling the high-performance components inside to run their very best.
THE WORLD AT YOUR FINGERTIPS
Arm yourself with a desktop-style keyboard optimized for gaming. Uniform RGB backlighting lets you brilliantly express your own unique style, while highlighted WASD accents give you a visual shortcut to key movement commands, with select models offering a new smoked look. Overstroke technology triggers higher in each keystroke for faster responsiveness and effortless control. In true TUF form, each key is durable enough to withstand over 20 million presses for superb long-term reliability and precision. The TUF Gaming A16 sports a mylar touchpad, enabling smooth scrolling with quiet clicks. The touchpad also has a report rate of 240Hz, giving the system more information on what you’re scrolling for and reducing accidental misclicks.
SAFE PORT IN A STORM
No matter your setup, the TUF Gaming A16 will keep you connected. A dedicated HDMI 2.1 port is supplemented by dual USB Type-C with DisplayPort support, as well as the power and versatility of USB 4. Fast and reliable Wi-Fi 6E (802.11ax) ensures that you'll be able to get online and be productive wherever compatible connections are available, or you can wire up directly with gigabit Ethernet on-board. For added signal stability at long ranges, the A18 also employs TAS technology, giving you more freedom to work and play away from your router.
STAYING POWER
When you need to game or work on the go, the 2025 TUF Gaming A18 has more than enough juice to get the job done. A large 90Wh battery allows you to work away from the wall for longer, and USB Type-C charging allows you charging flexibility if you left the power supply at home.
HEAR IT ALL
Two speakers powered by Dolby Atmos ensure a high-fidelity soundstage. Hi-Res Audio delivers music the way the artist intended over headphones. Two-way AI Noise Cancelation keeps incoming and outgoing communications clear of background noise, letting you focus on the action.
THE ULTIMATE COMMAND CENTER
Armoury Crate software unifies system and lighting controls under a single, easy-to-use utility. Its extensive customization options let you personalize aesthetic effects, fine-tune game profiles, and adjust audio settings to fit your preferences. With Scenario Profiles, you can define and custom preferences that automatically adjust performance and other options when you launch your favorite apps and games. With Armoury Crate, you take complete control of your experience.
