ASUS Introduces Upgraded TUF Gaming A14 Gaming Laptop Models

Game and create with the FA401GM  

The TUF Gaming A14 FA401GM is equipped with an AMD Ryzen AI 9 465 processor featuring 10 cores, 20 threads, and a built-in NPU capable of 50 TOPS of AI performance. A gaming and multi-tasking workhorse, this chip is able to easily power the latest AAA and esports titles all while running the user's favorite communication apps or streams in the background.  

Backed by the incredible performance of the new NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Laptop GPU, the FA401GM is truly primed and ready for the latest AAA and esports games. This card features the latest DLSS suite of technologies, which uses AI and neural rendering to boost FPS, reduce latency, and improve image quality. ‌The latest breakthrough, DLSS 4, brings Multi Frame Generation and enhanced Ray Reconstruction and Super Resolution, powered by GeForce RTX 50 Series GPUs and fifth-generation Tensor Cores. From old classics to the latest AAA titles, the FA401GM has the power to make games look and perform better than ever before.

Serious power and efficiency with the FA401EA

The TUF Gaming A14 FA401EA is equipped with an AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 392 with Radeon™ 8060S Graphics. Featuring 12 CPU cores, 40 compute units for the GPU, and a built-in NPU capable of 50 TOPS of AI performance, this processor offers incredible power efficiency with the ability to support large language models locally. The processor’s chiplet design hosts both CPU and GPU cores on the same die, sharing from the same large pool of memory as needed no matter the task at hand. A gaming and multi-tasking workhorse, this chip is able to easily power the latest AAA and esports titles all while running the user's favorite communication apps or streams in the background.  

Since local AI performance will become crucial to avoid long wait times and high costs in the cloud, the built-in NPU is a perfect companion to AMD Ryzen AI. Users can perform hand gesture detection, eye gaze correction, and use Windows Copilot tools like email summarization locally with less power consumption. For creators and users who don’t need a dedicated GPU in their workflow, the FA401EA offers serious performance at an incredibly attractive price point. 

Ultraportable 14-inch form factor  

Built to be ultraportable with excellent performance, the heaviest TUF Gaming A14 machines weigh only 1.48kg, and measure just 1.69cm thick. Despite these dimensions, the FA401EA has a max TDP of 95W in Manual Mode and the FA401GM supports up to an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Laptop GPU with a 115W max TGP in Manual Mode — far more than many of their competitors for an exceptional gaming experience. This is thanks in part to new stronger fan motors and 97-blade fans, capable of handling more airflow than the previous generation. These machines also feature micro-holes in the keyboard deck that help draw in fresh air while keeping the user's hands cool during marathon gaming sessions. 

In addition, both machines feature quad-channel LPDDR5X memory as well as two M.2 2280 SSD slots, so users can upgrade or add SSDs for extreme amounts of storage in a 14-inch laptop. USB power delivery rounds out this portable powerhouse, for easy charging on-the-go with wide compatibility between devices thanks to USB Type-C®.
