For that discounted price, you'll get powerful internals capable of running AAA games with ease at pretty high refresh rates. This ROG Strix G16 configuration features an Intel Core i9-13980HX 24-core CPU, 16GB of RAM, an Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 GPU with 8GB of VRAM, 1TB of SSD storage, and a 16-inch, 1920 x 1200-pixel display with a 165Hz max refresh rate.

In our review of the 2023 ROG Strix G16, we praised the laptop for its "springy keyboard, dazzling speakers and powerful performance — all catered by a long-lasting battery." We weren't as much of a fan of the display or its thick form factor, but in a gaming laptop, strong performance is often more important than its screen and weight.
