Intuitive Multi-touch Touchpad
A multitouch touchpad allows you to zoom in or out of pictures, or even scrolling up and down pages with minimal effort.

Power4Gear with self-adjusting fan speeds for quiet computing and saves battery at the same time

Power4Gear with a self-adjusting fan helps you conserve battery power and provides a quieter computing environment.

Palm Proof Technology for automatic palm detection for typing accuracy

The ASUS K42f features Palm Proof Technology, which intelligently analyzes the differences between palm and finger contact surfaces, and prevents the mouse cursor from accidentally moving while typing.

A Compelling Multimedia Experience

A 14-inch high definition LED panel with a 16:9 aspect ratio display adorns the ASUS K42f, complemented by SRS Premium Sound™ via Altec Lansing® speakers for a compelling multimedia experience.
