MORE MULTITASKING
32GB of dual-channel LPDDR5X memory makes everything from multitasking to multimedia rendering run fast and smooth. High-performance RAM lets you switch between gaming, streaming, and web browsing seamlessly. Keep focused and stay active with no slowdowns in sight.


DESIGNED TO MOVE
The design philosophy behind the TUF Gaming A14 is all about blending power with portability. As the smallest TUF Gaming laptop we've ever built, the A14 easily slips into bags, backpacks, and even some large purses, giving you the flexibility to take more essentials, and at just 1.46kg, it's light enough to carry around all day.
- 1.46 KG
- 1.69 cm Thin
- 180° Hinge Design
- CNC Machine Craftsmanship
- Diamond-Shaped Cutouts
- MILITARY GRADE Toughness


A durable, sleek aluminum lid mixes with the functionality of TUF Gaming with a touch of refinement that's at home anywhere. The corners of both the lid and the hinges of the A14 have been CNC-machined to give it a more exquisite look.


Geometric diamond-shaped cutouts in ultra-thin aluminum underside of the TUF Gaming A14 give a bit of design flair and extra durability, not to mention ample room for air intake.
- 27% Lighter Bottom Case*
- 72% Thinner Bottom Case*
*Compare with plastic material bottom case, tested internally by ASUS lab


The rear of the chassis features a full-width heatsink and large exhaust vents, increasing cooling performance and leaving the left and right sides of the machine free for I/O connectivity. This chassis design also allowed for the thin and sleek shape of the frame near the touchpad.


A 180° hinge design allows you to find the perfect angle no matter how you use the A14. The hinges are also mounted on top of the main frame of the laptop, allowing air to pass through the heatsinks with no impedance.


PORTABILITY - BUILT TO MOVE
At only 1.46kg, the TUF Gaming A14 is ready to travel anywhere - and built-in WiFi 6E will keep you connected at lightning-fast speeds wherever you go. Its 73Wh battery provides plenty of juice even without an outlet nearby, and it can fast charge to 50% in only 30 minutes when you need a quick top-off.
- microSD card
- WIFI 6E
- 73 Whr
- 50% in 30min Fast Charging
- 100W Type-C charging?


COOLING - STAY FROSTY
Powerful components require powerful cooling, and the TUF Gaming A14 is capable of 110W in Turbo mode. So we equipped the machine with a whole suite of technology to keep it running at peak performance. The keyboard has been redesigned to increase airflow and reduce surface temperatures, and when paired with ultra-thin heatsink fins and 89-blade fans, the A14 will be running at peak performance for years to come.
- 110W Turbo Mode
- 0db Ambient Cooling
- 89 blade Dual 0.1 mm thin fans
- Redesigned keyboard
- Inward airflow
- Dust Filter
0DB AMBIENT COOLING
Enjoy truly silent cooling under light workloads with 0dB Ambient Cooling technology. In the Silent operating mode, the cooling system switches off all fans during everyday tasks to dissipate heat passively. This lets you concentrate on your work and immerse yourself in movies with less distraction. If CPU or GPU temperatures increase, the fans automatically switch on again.
REDESIGNED KEYBOARD
Previous keyboard designs focused on keeping the chassis temperatures cool, keeping your fingers comfortable during long gaming sessions. The newly redesigned keyboard not only keeps your hands comfortable on the trackpad and keyboard deck, but increases air intake for the main system components as well, boosting the A14's cooling performance without increasing weight or chassis size.
FLUID DYNAMIC BEARING
Both fans have a fluid bearing design, which is a tried and tested style that will keep the A14 operating at peak performance for years to come.
89-BLADE FANS
The dual fans come with 89 ultra-thin blades, just 0.1mm thick, enabling high airflow and static pressure without bothersome acoustics or whine.
INWARD AIRFLOW
Not all air needs to be sent to the copper heatsinks. The fan shrouds have precisely calculated cutouts to direct airflow toward internal components like memory and VRM modules, keeping them cooler and operating at peak efficiency.
0.1MM ULTRA-THIN FINS
The A14's thermal energy is dissipated by two heatsinks, each lined with ultra-thin copper fins as slim as 0.1 mm.
Higher density fins allow for increased heat dissipation and lower air resistance for smoother flow.
DUST FILTER
When dust and fibers collect inside a machine, heat can get trapped, causing degraded performance over time. A filter over the A14's air intakes helps keep dust out, allowing the CPU and GPU to breathe easier for years of smooth and stable operation.
EXHAUST VENTS
The TUF Gaming A14 features a large rear heatsink, making the most of its 14-inch frame. This rear exhaust keeps hot air and fan noise pointed away from you and your hands for a cooler and quieter experience.


DISPLAY? - NEVER MISS A MOMENT?
Keep up with the pros thanks to a 2.5K 165Hz display. NVIDIA G-SYNC synchronizes the display's refresh rate with the GPU's output to reduce lag, minimize stuttering, and eliminate visual tearing for ultra-smooth and lifelike gameplay. The 2.5K panel hits 100% of the sRGB color space, and when packed into a 14-inch chassis, this resolution boasts an incredible pixel density, ensuring your videos and games are as immersive as possible without sacrificing portability.
- 2.5K - 2560x1600 Resolution
- 165Hz Refresh Rate
- 3ms Response time
- 100% sRGB Color Gamut
- NVIDIA G-sync Technology
- 16:10 Aspect Ratio
- 88% Screen-to-body Ratio


CONTROL - THE WORLD AT YOUR FINGERTIPS
Arm yourself with a desktop-style keyboard optimized for gaming. Uniform Mini LED backlighting lets you brilliantly express your own unique style. Overstroke technology triggers higher in each keystroke for faster responsiveness and effortless control. In true TUF form, each key is durable enough to withstand over 20 million presses for superb long-term reliability and precision. The TUF Gaming A14 sports a glass topped touchpad, enabling smooth scrolling with quiet clicks. The touchpad also has a report rate of 240Hz, giving the system more information on what you're scrolling for and reducing accidental misclicks.

AUDIO - HEAR IT ALL
Two speakers powered by Dolby Atmos ensure a high-fidelity soundstage. Hi-Res Audio delivers music the way the artist intended over headphones. Two-way AI Noise Cancelation keeps incoming and outgoing communications clear of background noise, letting you focus on the action.
- Hi-Res Audio Certification
- Two-way AI Noise Cancellation Technology
Dolby Atmos
Richer audio draws you more deeply into gameplay and media. Virtual 5.1.2-channel surround sound powered by Dolby Atmos enhances spatial immersion with more nuanced, layered sound effects that you can optimize with specially tuned preset modes for movies and games.


AI Noise Cancellation
Our advanced Two-Way AI Noise cancellation technology runs on the CPU, which frees up the GPU to hit higher framerates. It works with any input device and also with downstream connections, letting you remove noise from both your own mic input and from incoming feeds. Noise-canceling settings can even be customized per program, filtering specific apps like voice chat without affecting game audio you want to remain untouched.


CONNECTIVITY - SAFE PORT IN A STORM
No matter your setup, the TUF Gaming A14 will keep you connected. A dedicated HDMI 2.1 port is supplemented by dual USB Type-C with DisplayPort support, as well as the power and versatility of USB 4. Fast and reliable Wi-Fi 6E (802.11ax) ensures that you'll be able to get online and be productive wherever compatible connections are available, or you can wire up directly with gigabit Ethernet on-board.
*On Strix Point machines. Hawk Point SKUs offer DisplayPort 1.4.


SOFTWARE - THE ULTIMATE COMMAND CENTER
Armoury Crate software unifies system and lighting controls under a single, easy-to-use utility. Its extensive customization options let you personalize aesthetic effects, fine-tune game profiles, and adjust audio settings to fit your preferences. With Scenario Profiles, you can define and custom preferences that automatically adjust performance and other options when you launch your favorite apps and games. With Armoury Crate, you take complete control of your experience.


ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
