Thermal: Cooler, Quieter and Faster!

To keep it cool in all situations, the ASUS IceCool thermal technology in Vivobook 16X uses upgraded heat pipes[3], and an IceBlade fan that efficiently accelerates heat transfer. The 87-blade fan and impeller are made of a liquid-crystal polymer that means they’re lighter and thinner than ordinary fans. In addition, the fan uses a fluid-dynamics bearing that’s quieter and has less vibration than an ordinary bearing. The end result is that the mighty CPU can run comfortably at a blistering 45 watts total TDP in Performance mode - with no throttling!

Asus Antibacterial Guard: 99% Bacterial Inhibition. Your Health Safeguarded

The surface of any laptop harbours thousands of potentially harmful bacteria. To keep your laptop hygienic, it’s protected by ASUS Antibacterial Guard - a special surface treatment that keeps the bugs at bay. In fact, Antibacterial Guard has been scientifically proven[6] to inhibit the growth of bacteria[7] by more than 99% over a 24-hour period, ensuring the surfaces[8] of your laptop clean and sanitary for longer and reducing the spread of potentially harmful bacteria via contact.

• Proven 99% bacterial-inhibiting effect
• ISO 22196 tested
• At least 3 years of lasting protection

Asus Antibacterial Guard: 99% Effective

Without ASUS Antibacterial Guard a sample of 10,000 bacterial cells grew to 28,000. Performing the same test with Antibacterial Guard saw the count reduced to just 16 — a growth restriction of more than 99%. Our test adheres to ISO 221967, and involves both E. coli and Staphylococcus aureus.

Asus Antibacterial Guard: ISO-Certified Protection

All bacteria can be classified by Gram staining into Gram positive or Gram negative, named after bacteriologist Hans Christian Gram. The ISO 22196[7] test defines Staphylococcus aureus and E. coli respectively as Gram positive and Gram negative. Many industries choose these two bacteria as test targets — and it is these that are tested against ASUS Antibacterial Guard.

Asus Antibacterial Guard: Antibacterial Silver Ions

The ASUS Antibacterial Guard treatment consists of positively-charged silver ions and is durable enough for at least three years of normal usage[9]. Household cleaning products and agents such as alcohol wipes and soap water won’t easily wear away the silver-ion surface treatment, ensuring ASUS Antibacterial Guard’s long-lasting bacterial-inhibiting effect.
