Specifications

General
Model Name G835LW-SA024W
Launch Year 2025
Market Segment Gaming
Memory Kit Layout Kit layout shows how the total RAM is split across physical modules - for example, '2 x 16 GB' uses two slots, leaves two open for upgrade. Dual-channel (matched pair across two slots) is roughly 50 percent faster than single-channel. 2 x 16 GB
Nb Family Name ROG Strix
NPU Performance NPU (Neural Processing Unit): dedicated AI/ML acceleration. TOPS = tera operations per second. 13 TOPs
AI Sparsity Support Hardware support for sparse neural network operations, which can roughly double AI inference throughput on supported models. Yes
Processor
Boost Clock Speed Boost clock speed (GHz) is the peak frequency a few cores can reach for short bursts when thermal and power headroom allow. Higher boost clock makes interactive apps feel snappier and accelerates short, bursty workloads like web browsing and Office. 5.4 GHz
Processor Cores Cores are the independent processing units inside the CPU. More cores let the system handle more applications and threads simultaneously without slowdown. 4 cores is fine for office work, 6-8 for content creation and gaming, 12+ for video editing, simulat 24
Processor Model 275HX
CPU Generation Newer generation = better performance per watt and more features. Intel Core Ultra (Series 2)
CPU Brand Intel
Processor Threads Threads are the virtual processing lanes the CPU exposes to the operating system. Hyper-Threading / SMT typically doubles thread count vs core count, which improves throughput on parallel workloads like rendering and compilation. Threads do not double sin 24
Efficiency Cores Efficiency cores (E-cores) are smaller, lower-power CPU cores that handle background tasks (telemetry, sync, web tabs) while the P-cores stay free for the active app. They boost multi-threaded throughput cheaply and extend battery life on notebooks. 16
Neural Processor (NPU) Dedicated AI accelerator built into the CPU package. Used by Windows Studio Effects, Copilot+ features and AI inference workloads. Intel AI Boost
Performance Cores Performance cores (P-cores) are the high-power CPU cores used for demanding foreground tasks - games, rendering, single-threaded productivity. They run at the highest clock speeds and consume the most power. P-core count is the main driver of peak single- 8
E-core Base Frequency 2.1 GHz
E-core Max Turbo 4.6 GHz
Intel Thunderbolt 5 Yes
Memory Speed Memory speed (MT/s or MHz) is how many transfers per second the RAM can do. Higher memory speed reduces the wait for data and noticeably boosts performance on Ryzen CPUs and integrated graphics. DDR5-5600 is the current entry; DDR5-6400+ benefits enthusia 5600 MHz
Chipset The chipset determines supported CPU generations, PCIe lanes and overclocking. Intel HM870 Express
P-core Base Frequency 2.7 GHz
P-core Max Turbo 5.4 GHz
Base Power Base Power (W, also called PL1) is the sustained power the CPU is rated to draw at base clock. It maps directly to long-term cooling requirements: a 65 W chip fits stock coolers, a 125 W chip needs a tower or AIO cooler. 55 W
Cache Memory Cache memory is the tiny but extremely fast on-chip memory the CPU uses to keep frequently accessed data close to the cores. Larger L2 and L3 caches cut down on slow trips to system RAM, which is especially valuable for gaming, databases and compilation. 36 MB
Total CPU AI Performance (TOPs) Maximum AI compute throughput from the CPU expressed in tera-operations per second. 36 TOPs
Memory
Max Supported RAM 64 GB
RAM Form Factor SODIMM: notebook. DIMM: desktop. LPDDR: soldered, power-efficient. SO-DIMM
Memory Type Memory type sets the RAM generation. DDR5 is the current standard for Intel 12th-gen+ and AMD AM5; it delivers higher bandwidth and lower voltage than DDR4. DDR4 is still common on older platforms. Memory type must match the motherboard; the slots are phy DDR5-SDRAM
Memory Channels Dual-channel (2) doubles bandwidth vs single-channel; quad-channel for servers. Dual-channel

Display
Resolution Native resolution is the pixel grid the panel was designed to display. FHD = 1920x1080, QHD = 2560x1440, 4K UHD = 3840x2160, 5K = 5120x2880. Running below native resolution makes the image fuzzy unless content is scaled cleanly (which only works for some 2560 x 1600 pixels
Refresh Rate Refresh rate (Hz) is how many times per second the screen redraws its image. 60 Hz is the standard for productivity; 120-144 Hz feels noticeably smoother for everyday use; 240+ Hz benefits competitive gaming. Higher refresh rate also reduces motion blur. 240 Hz
Panel Type Panel type sets the colour, contrast and viewing-angle character of the monitor. IPS = wide viewing angles, accurate colour, moderate contrast; VA = high contrast and deep blacks, narrower angles; TN = fastest response but limited angles; OLED = perfect b Mini LED
Resolution Class FHD=1920×1080, QHD=2560×1440, 4K=3840×2160, OLED refers to panel type. 2.5K
HDR Support High Dynamic Range . wider brightness and colour range for more realistic content. Yes
HDR Standard HDR10: basic. HDR10+/Dolby Vision: dynamic per-scene metadata for better results. Dolby Vision
Backlight Edge-lit: thinner, less uniform. Direct-lit/Full-array: brighter, local dimming. Yes
