XMG CORE 16

Undercover Gaming

The lightweight 16-inch XMG CORE 16 impresses with its high mobile performance, all wrapped in a stylish and elegant design. High efficiency, numerous ports, and a robust aluminium chassis form the foundation of this powerful, compact all-rounder. A highly efficient AMD CPU, modern GeForce RTX 50 graphics cards, and a high-capacity 99.8 Wh battery ensure maximum endurance away from the power socket, all while providing plenty of performance. This premium laptop for gamers and creatives is further enhanced with a high-resolution 500-nit display featuring 100% DCI-P3 colour space coverage, as well as up to 128 GB of RAM and 16 TB of SSD storage.

High-Quality Aluminium Chassis

Lightweight, Mobile Elegance

Stylish, Robust and Compact

The compact 16-inch aluminium chassis of the XMG CORE 16 not only packs plenty of power but is also exceptionally portable, thanks to its low weight of just 2.1 kg. At the same time, the CORE 16 maintains its key values of exclusive elegance. The premium choice of materials and precise craftsmanship result in a sleek, restrained design that doesn’t compromise on stability and robustness, meeting professional standards.

Striking Performance from NVIDIA & AMD

Perfect Symbiosis for Mobile Laptop Power

AMD Ryzen AI
Powerful CPUs with a Focus on Efficiency

Delivering powerful performance and high efficiency through the latest technology and innovative AI features, AMD Ryzen AI CPUs from the Strix and Kraken Point series provide the ideal foundation for mobile 16-inch gaming and creative tasks. The XMG CORE 16 offers the high-performance flagship Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 with 12 cores and 24 threads, alongside the price-performance champion Ryzen AI 9 365, and the affordable, fast Ryzen AI 7 350.

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50 Series
Powerful 3D Performance

NThe NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 and 5060 are the perfect match for the high-resolution 1600p display of the compact XMG CORE 16, ensuring high FPS in demanding games. In addition to their gaming performance, these upper mid-range graphics cards come equipped with dedicated AI features and Tensor Cores, as well as the latest generation of streaming multiprocessors, providing everything you need for AI-assisted photo and video editing, as well as rendering tasks.

Two SSDs & Up to 128 GB RAM

Flexible Storage & Memory Options

Fast Loading Times & Premium RAM

With up to 128 GB of DDR5 RAM and two M.2 slots supporting PCI Express 4.0, offering a maximum of 16 TB of SSD storage, the XMG CORE 16 is the perfect mobile all-rounder for demanding gaming and ambitious creative projects, such as video editing. For enhanced cooling, the M.2 slots are equipped with thermal pads, ensuring the SSDs maintain peak performance reliably and consistently whenever you need it.

Customised Composite Cooling System

Reliable Sustained Performance

Customisable Power Limits

A dual air intake through the bottom and keyboard, coupled with phase-changing Honeywell PTM-7958 thermal pads on the CPU and GPU, ensures consistently high performance. For the ideal, individual balance of performance and the lowest possible operating noise, you can set the power limits of the processor and graphics card in the Control Center according to your preferences.

Quiet and Cool

Numerous thoughtful optimisations make the cooling system the perfect match for this sleek laptop. It ensures high performance when needed or near-silent operation during everyday tasks, whether surfing the internet or working with office programs. The internally directed airflow dissipates heat through rear air outlets, keeping your mouse hand cool even during intensive use.

Maximum Battery Capacity

99.8 Wh for Outstanding Runtimes

Compact, yet exceptional in battery life: the XMG CORE 16 is equipped with a 99.8 Wh battery, offering the maximum capacity permitted for unrestricted mobile laptop use. This ensures you can go through your day without worrying about finding the next power socket. Thanks to the efficient AMD CPUs, which feature an energy-saving integrated graphics unit for 2D tasks, this high-performance laptop easily lasts more than a full working day without needing a recharge: over 8 hours when streaming YouTube, and even longer when using standard office software.

100 % DCI-P3 and 500 Nits

Razor-Sharp and Bright

Premium Display for Gamer & Creatives

With a resolution of 2,560 x 1,600 pixels across 16 inches, the anti-glare display presents all content with exceptional clarity. A brightness of 500 nits ensures excellent readability, even in very bright environments or outdoor settings. The 100% coverage of the extended DCI-P3 and sRGB colour space makes the laptop the first choice for colour-accurate image and video editing, while gamers benefit from smooth visuals thanks to the 300 Hz refresh rate. The display can also be opened up to 180 degrees with one hand for added convenience.

First-Class Connectivity with Rear Ports

All the Ports You Need

Goodbye Dongle Life

The impressive range of ports – especially for a laptop in the compact class – makes the XMG CORE 16 an exceptionally versatile all-rounder for productive use. Many of the larger ports are located at the rear, including an HDMI 2.1 port, Mini DisplayPort 2.1, a Thunderbolt-compatible USB4 port with DisplayPort 2.1 and 140 W Power Delivery, as well as the power supply connection. On the sides, you will find an additional USB-C port with DisplayPort 1.4 and 100 W Power Delivery, three USB-A ports, Gigabit LAN, a 2-in-1 audio jack for headset and microphone, and a lightning-fast SD Express-compatible card reader for full-size memory cards.

Four Native Display Connectors

Ready for Impressive Multi-Monitor Setups

If you're looking for the ultimate multi-monitor setup for productivity, gaming, or both, the XMG CORE 16 is the ideal choice. With two DisplayPort-capable USB-C ports, an HDMI 2.1 port, and a Mini DisplayPort 2.1, the laptop supports up to four external monitors natively in addition to its built-in display. This enables you to manage multiple workflows simultaneously, without the need to switch back and forth between individual program windows.

Compact Full-Size Keyboard

Maximum Control with Extended Layout

Precision Tool

The backlit full-size keyboard offers all the comfort and functionality you need. Gamers benefit from freely programmable per-key RGB lighting, anti-ghosting, and N-key rollover, while creatives enjoy a fully-fledged four-row numeric keypad, full-size offset arrow keys, concave keycaps, and a quickly switchable Fn-Lock via the ‘FN’ and ‘ESC’ key combination. Thanks to the enhanced stability of the key mechanism, the keyboard ensures an excellent typing experience with maximum precision.

XMG Control Center & BIOS Tuning
