ASUS ProArt P16 and P14 (RTX Spark) in Korea: How Korean Prices Compare with the US $2,599.99
Updated October 16, 2026 (KST). ASUS’s ProArt P16 and P14, its first creator laptops built on NVIDIA RTX Spark, were set to launch in Korea on October 16. On launch day, Korean retailer Compuzone still listed both as pre-orders, with estimated delivery around October 28 for the P16 and November 9 for the P14, at unchanged prices. ASUS’s global press release says US prices start at $2,599.99 at Best Buy. In Korea, ASUS’s official product pages don’t show a won price, so the Korean prices below come from a major Korean retailer. Each price is shown in its own currency. We did no currency conversion, because the US and Korean listings we found are for different configurations.
Launch dates
- Global: ASUS said pre-orders began October 7, 2026, with the first US units arriving October 16 (ASUS press release).
- Korea: CNET Korea reported that ASUS announced on October 14 that both models would officially launch in Korea on October 16 (CNET Korea). Danawa DPG reported that pre-orders had been running since October 8 on ASUS’s online store, Naver, 11st, eBay and Compuzone (Danawa DPG).

Why we don’t put a single “Korea costs X% more” number on it:
– The configurations differ. The cheapest Korean listing we found (P14, 24GB) has a 1TB SSD, while the US $2,599.99 model has 512GB. The Korean P16 listing is 128GB / 1TB, and the US listings we found are 24GB / 512GB and 64GB / 1TB.
– The sellers differ. The US figures are Best Buy and ASUS Store prices, while the Korean figures come from one retailer. Compuzone notes that discounts and benefits shown at checkout can differ from the listed price.
– There’s no official Korean price list. We found no won price on ASUS Korea’s P16 and P14 product or where-to-buy pages.
– Exchange rates move. We didn’t convert, to avoid picking an unsourced rate. If you convert yourself, note the rate, its source and its date.
ASUS’s release says configurations, pricing and availability “may vary by product and region”, and that the MSRP is subject to change.
What the money buys: memory matters most
The entry US models use an 18-core CPU and a 5,120-core Blackwell RTX GPU with 24GB of unified memory, according to Best Buy’s P14 listing and The Gadgeteer. ASUS’s headline specifications (up to a 20-core CPU, 6,144-core GPU and 128GB) describe the top configurations. The Korean P16 listing at ₩9,299,000 is one of those, with a 20-core CPU, 6,144-core GPU and 128GB. The Korean P14 listing at ₩4,699,000 has an 18-core CPU, a 5,120-core GPU and 24GB. Compuzone’s listings say the memory can’t be upgraded later.
P16 vs P14
