Product details

The ASUS ROG Strix SCAR 18 G835LX-SA012W is an 18-inch gaming laptop designed for high-performance computing and immersive gaming experiences. Featuring an Intel Core Ultra 9 Series 2 processor, 64 GB of DDR5 RAM, and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 graphics card, this system delivers smooth gameplay at 60 frames per second in 4K resolution. The tool-less design allows for easy upgrades of SSDs, RAM, and cooling fans without the need for tools, enhancing long-term usability. The 18-inch MiniLED display offers exceptional picture quality with 1200 nits brightness and a 240 Hz refresh rate for sharp, vibrant colors and fluid motion in fast-paced games. With dimensions of approximately 40.6 cm in width, 28.9 cm in depth, and 2.3 cm in height, along with a weight of 3.3 kg, this laptop provides high performance in a portable format, although its size and weight are more suited for stationary use than frequent travel. The system supports demanding applications such as 3D modeling, video editing, game development, and virtual reality, making it versatile for both gaming and professional creative work. Connectivity options include multiple USB ports, HDMI, and wireless options for comprehensive peripheral support. The laptop operates optimally on AC power during intensive tasks to maintain performance levels and battery life. Compatible with major game titles like League of Legends, Fortnite, Call of Duty, Hogwarts Legacy, and Microsoft Flight Simulator at high settings, it meets the recommended system requirements for contemporary gaming and multimedia applications.
