Itl meets ASUS' ROG Nebula display certification, which requires 100% coverage of DCI-P3, at least 500 nits of brightness, and a response time of 3ms or less. It's worth highlighting that the ROG Flow X16 has more than double the peak brightness that the certification requires.
ASUS focused on keeping the laptop cool when designing it. The company highlighted the ROG Flow X16's Frost Force Technology and Pulsar Heatsink with three fans in its press materials. According to ASUS, the third fan in the XOG Flow X16 allows the laptop's GPU to stay 7°C (44.6°F) cooler than traditional setups.
