16x
Multiplied by sixteen
Sixteen times—a multiplier indicating something occurs or is sized sixteen times greater than a reference point.
Common in computing and gaming contexts: 16x speed DVD drive, 16x anti-aliasing.
Also appears in photography for zoom lenses and magnification: a 16x optical zoom.
The x functions as shorthand for "times" in technical specifications.
