Is the ROG Strix G10CE good for 1440p gaming?

Yes, with some settings turned down. The RTX 3060 12GB is comfortable at 1080p and handles 1440p in most titles at medium to high settings, though the most demanding games need lower settings or DLSS.

Can I upgrade the RAM and storage?

Yes. It ships with 16GB DDR4 and a 1TB NVMe SSD, and both can be expanded, though the compact case leaves limited room and some owners find the work tight.

Does it have Wi-Fi and Bluetooth?

It has Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac) built in. Bluetooth support depends on the wireless card fitted, so check the exact configuration before relying on it.

What ports does it have?

The front has two USB 3.1 ports plus headphone and microphone jacks. The rear adds four USB 3.2 ports, two USB 2.0 ports, Ethernet, audio in/out and an HDMI-out. There is no USB-C.

Is it easy to set up for a first-time PC owner?

Yes. It comes with Windows 11 Home preinstalled, so you sign in and start gaming. Armoury Crate handles lighting and performance tuning in one app.

How does it compare with newer ROG prebuilts?

Newer models move to 12th-gen or later Intel CPUs, RTX 40-series graphics and Wi-Fi 6, which means better performance and connectivity. The G10CE remains a capable 1080p machine but is a generation behind on those parts.
