The XMG CORE 16 opens a new chapter in Undercover Gaming with high-end features, premium build quality, a stylish-elegant design, and the very top of midrange performance in a smart 16-inch form factor. Designed on the basis of the XMG NEO 16, this gaming laptop takes many features of the top model and bundles them into an outstanding complete package, including the optional mechanical keyboard with CHERRY MX Ultra Low Profile switches. A highly efficient, high-performance eight-core processor from the AMD Phoenix series, graphics cards up to the DLSS3-capable NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070, a maximum of 96 GB RAM, a huge battery and a superior cooling system including liquid metal give the CORE 16 the finishing touch.
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 40
Innovative graphics features
NVIDIA's powerful line-up of upper mid-range laptop graphics cards provides you with great performance for ultra-smooth gaming thanks to innovative features. In the XMG CORE 16, you have the choice between a high-performance GeForce RTX 4070 or a fast RTX 4060, both with the maximum power limits. Dedicated ray tracing and tensor cores as part of the innovative GPU design enable stunning graphics effects and unlock AI-powered acceleration features in your content creation software.
AMD Ryzen 7 7840HS
High performance & best efficiency
AMD's Ryzen 7 7840HS boasts top-notch performance with optimised energy efficiency thanks to its modern Zen 4 architecture. With 8 cores and 16 threads, this processor gives you everything you need for gaming at continuously high FPS, streaming or working in demanding software. Compared to the Zen 3-based predecessor generation, this CPU offers a significant increase in both single- and multi-core performance.
High-end compound cooling system
Liquid metal for CPU and GPU
In the XMG CORE 16, highly efficient laptop components meet a generous cooling system that ensures excellent temperatures in every situation. Four heat pipes, separate heat sinks on all four air outlets and large fans with a low-frequency acoustic characteristic offer more than enough reserves to get the maximum performance out of the processor and graphics card. The additional use of liquid metal completes the high-performance cooling.
RGB keyboard with CHERRY MX switches
Precision meets perfection
With its optional high-end keyboard based on CHERRY's groundbreaking Ultra Low Profile Tactile switches, the XMG CORE 16 picks up on one of the key features of the XMG NEO series. The flattest, fully mechanical switches for laptops impress with a uniquely precise feedback, proven CHERRY durability and freely programmable RGB per-key backlight - N-key rollover, anti-ghosting and features such as a dedicated numeric keypad and large arrow keys included. For those who prefer particularly quiet typing, the CORE 16 is also available with a keyboard with silent membrane switches.
High-resolution IPS display
Razor sharp on 16 inch
The 16-inch non-glare display offers an enhanced WQXGA resolution (2,560 x 1,600 pixels) for a razor-sharp image reproduction. Thanks to a brightness of 350 nits, everything can be seen perfectly even in bright environments. With the IPS technology used, you can expect not only vibrant colours, a high contrast and excellent black levels, but also a wide viewing angle stability.
Extremely smooth 240 Hz gaming
A very fast refresh rate of 240 Hz is ideal for smooth gaming with high FPS - NVIDIA graphics cards with DLSS 3 flex their muscles in this category. The display is connected via a MUX switch: this allows you to permanently link the display device to the dGPU for maximum performance.
Colour accurate display Smart 16:10 format
The display's complementary features make it the right choice for professional image or video editing. For example, the factory colour-calibrated panel covers 95 per cent of the sRGB colour space to meet creatives' requirements for high colour accuracy, and also uses the 16:10 format with more vertical screen area - ideal for enhanced ease of use in photo and video editing applications.
Holds two blazing-fast SSDs and
96 GB DDR5-5600 RAM
As one of the first gaming laptops ever, the XMG CORE 16 can hold up to 96 GB of plugged-in, high-performance DDR5 RAM with a maximum clock frequency of 5600 MHz. But it's not just the configuration options for the memory that leave you all options open: Two M.2 slots outfitted with thermal pads for fast SSDs connected via PCI Express 4.0 provide more than enough storage space if needed.
Maximum battery capacity
99 Wh for long runtimes
A battery capacity of 99 Wh is the absolute maximum allowed for unrestricted mobile use of your laptop. Combined with the efficient high-performance components, the XMG CORE 16 offers impressive runtimes on the go. When taking advantage of the clever 60 Hz feature, over 8 hours are possible during light workloads such as streaming videos. In addition, three selectable profiles allow you to adjust the maximum capacity and charging speed of the battery to optimise longevity according to your individual use of the laptop.
Modern features
All the connectivity you need
The versatile XMG CORE 16 comes with all the ports you need for your gaming setup or daily workflow. These include three USB-A and one USB-C port as well as a card reader for full-size SD cards and separate audio jacks for headphones (compatible with combo plug headsets) and a microphone. Additional display devices such as external G-SYNC monitors or smart TVs for convenient couch gaming can be operated via a Mini DisplayPort or HDMI output. Network connection is via fast Wi-Fi 6 or wired Gigabit Ethernet.
Robust chassis, precise glass touchpad
Durable & high-quality
Even the chassis of the XMG CORE 16 is in keeping with the concept of bringing high-end features to the upper mid-range: The excellently crafted chassis is based on a sturdy base unit and a display lid made of high-quality aluminium, while the area below the keyboard offers you a non-slip grip thanks to a special, non-slip polymer. A Microsoft Precision Touchpad made of glass accurately handles all inputs and helps to prevent unintentional input errors thanks to automatic recognition of the palm of the hand.
XMG Control Center
All settings under control
The XMG Control Center is a powerful tool that gives you complete control over your laptop’s performance settings. Not only will you find customised, predefined performance profiles, but you can also create your own profiles with the optimal balance of performance, noise and temperatures – and then conveniently call them up via the mode switch button above the keyboard. Experts can also access many additional tuning options to get the most out of their setup.

*XMG CORE is able to max out the GPU power consumption of the RTX 40-series laptop GPUs (140 W for RTX 4060/4070) in synthetic stress tests (e.g. FurMark). However, according to the NVIDIA specifications, the actual GPU power consumption depends on the type of workload. Therefore, the power consumption may be below (sometimes significantly lower) than the specified TGP and Dynamic Boost power draw values and is defined by NVIDIA.
