KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, April 24, 2025 — ASUS Malaysia today officially introduced its latest innovation in portable gaming — the new ASUS Gaming series. Featuring the ASUS Gaming V16 (V3607) and ASUS Gaming K16 (K3605), this lineup redefines on-the-go gaming and content creation with powerful hardware packed into slim, lightweight designs.
Designed for gamers, creators, and students, the new series delivers high-performance computing in a highly portable form factor, empowering users to game, create, and work anytime, anywhere.
Slim, Lightweight, and Built for Versatility
Weighing from just 1.80kg and measuring as thin as 1.89cm, the ASUS Gaming series is positioned as one of the slimmest 16-inch gaming laptops in its class. Despite the compact profile, both models come fully equipped with a range of I/O ports for seamless connectivity and feature a durable chassis built to military-grade standards (MIL-STD 810H).
Under the hood, the laptops are powered by up to an Intel® Core™ 5 Processor 510H and up to an NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 4050 Laptop GPU, supported by an enhanced dual-fan cooling system for sustained performance during gaming, content creation, and multitasking.
Immersive Displays for Gaming and Creation
Both the V16 and K16 models feature a 16-inch FHD+ IPS display with a 16:10 aspect ratio and a high refresh rate of up to 144Hz. With an 89% screen-to-body ratio and more vertical space, users can expect smoother gameplay, sharper visuals, and improved multitasking efficiency — all in a compact design ideal for work and play.
Performance Options to Match Different Needs
The ASUS Gaming V16 is the higher-end option, offering a more powerful Intel® Core™ 5 processor 210H, NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 4050 GPU, faster DDR5 memory, and a larger 63Wh battery for longer usage. It also includes a 1080p FHD webcam, making it a solid choice for heavy multitaskers and content creators.
Meanwhile, the ASUS Gaming K16 caters to those seeking value and portability. It features an Intel® Core™ i5-13420H processor and an NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 3050 GPU — ideal for everyday gaming, content creation, and productivity tasks at a lighter weight.
Added Value Out of the Box
The ASUS Gaming V16 (V3607) will be available in Malaysia starting 25 April 2025 at a retail price of RM3,999, while the ASUS Gaming K16 (K3605) will be priced at RM3,499. Both models will be sold through all authorized ASUS retailers nationwide, offering Malaysian gamers, creators, and students easy access to powerful, lightweight gaming laptops built for both performance and portability.
