Eurocom just put out the Nightsky ARX516, a new 16-inch laptop for gamers and people who make content. It runs on an AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 chip and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50-series video card.
This laptop has an AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 chip with 12 cores (24 threads) and built-in Radeon 890M graphics. It works with a separate NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 video card that has 8GB of GDDR7 memory. The machine lets users swap between built-in and separate graphics to mix good use and save battery.
The Nightsky ARX516 has a screen with a 2560x1600 pixel count and a 240Hz refresh speed. It can hook up to three more screens too.
You can set it up with up to 128GB of DDR5 RAM and fit up to three M.2 SSDs, giving up to 16TB of storage space.
Built with a metal case, the Nightsky ARX516 meets the MIL-STD 810H military mark for toughness.
The laptop has many plug types:
- Two USB4 plugs (with DisplayPort 2.1 and power share)
- HDMI output
- Two USB-A 3.2 Gen 2 plugs
- Gigabit RJ-45 Ethernet plug
- Combo audio plug
It has Wi-Fi and Bluetooth for wireless links. The laptop also has TPM (Trusted Platform Module) and can have an ANTI SPYING choice which cuts off the camera, mic, and wireless parts. The Nightsky ARX516 weighs 1.95 kg and is 32.5 mm thick.
Eurocom says the battery lasts about 5.5 hours with built-in graphics in hybrid mode, and about 2 hours with the separate video card. Users can pick between Windows 11 or Linux for the system software.
