Is the RTX 5070 Ti enough for 1440p gaming?

Yes. The RTX 5070 Ti handles most modern games at high settings on the 16-inch panel, and DLSS helps in the heaviest titles. Expect to lower settings in the most demanding ray-traced games.

Can I upgrade the RAM and SSD later?

The Strix G16 has accessible memory slots and an M.2 slot for a second SSD on most configurations. With 64GB and 1TB already fitted, most buyers won't need to open it.

How loud is it under load?

Fans are audible in performance and turbo modes, which is normal for this class. Silent mode quiets it for light tasks at the cost of performance.

How does it compare with the ROG Zephyrus G16?

The Zephyrus is thinner, lighter and more premium, but the Strix G16 generally gives more raw performance and memory for the same class of hardware. Choose the Strix for power, the Zephyrus for portability.

Is the 165Hz screen good for esports?

Yes. 165Hz suits fast shooters and competitive games, and the panel is bright enough for indoor use. It is not an OLED, so contrast is good but not class-leading.
