ASUS ROG Strix SCAR 18 G834JYR 18.0″ WQXGA 240Hz 1100 nits Gaming Laptop (Intel i9-14900HX, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090, 32GB RAM, 2TB SSD, Windows 11 with 3 Months Game Pass)

Dominate the battlefield with the ROG Strix SCAR 18. Get the drop on the competition with a lightning-fast and crystal-clear 18-inch 2.5K 240Hz Nebula HDR display Mini LED panel with over 2K dimming zones. Powered by Intel’s latest Core i9-14900HX Processor and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 Laptop GPU with a max TGP of 175W and NVIDIA Advanced Optimus, the Strix SCAR 18 easily handles even the most demanding games. For the ultimate gaming laptops, look no further than the Strix SCAR 18.

To accommodate such powerful components, the Strix SCAR’s chassis and motherboard were both designed to accommodate our high-performance full-width heatsink, with the copper fins even closer to the exhaust vents for more efficient cooling. This unique heatsink is built from three different sections, surrounding the motherboard with densely packed fins for a total surface area of 174,183mm². This design maximizes the available pathing for hot air to escape the machine and drastically increases overall cooling.

Finally, most gaming laptops have a dual fan cooling system, but the Strix SCAR was able to push the performance envelope even further with the introduction of a third fan that helps keep the GPU and VRAM cool. Paired with seven heatpipes and Conductonaut Extreme liquid metal on both the CPU and GPU, the SCAR’s cooling system is a marvel of engineering.

For gamers who demand the absolute best motion and image clarity, the Strix SCAR offers an incredible Nebula HDR Display with a 240Hz refresh rate, 100% DCI-P3 coverage, and a staggering 1100 nits of peak brightness for stunning HDR gameplay. The 18-inch, 16:10 aspect ratio Mini LED panel boasts over 2000 discrete dimming zones, capable of displaying incredibly deep blacks for content that jumps right off the screen, whether you’re watching a movie or playing a fast-moving arena shooter. The SCAR can also be equipped with a 2.5K 240Hz Nebula Display, offering fantastic color, Dolby Vision, Adaptive-Sync support, and up to an 90% screen-to-body ratio for a stellar gaming and viewing experience.

The Strix SCAR is ready to go the distance. Featuring a 90Wh battery, the laptop can easily browse the web for hours away from the wall before needing a recharge. For flexibility on the go, USB Type-C charging is supported up to 100W. When charging using the supplied 330W power adapter, the Strix SCAR can recharge from zero to 50% in just 30 minutes.

When you need to plug into the big screen, the dedicated GPU powers an HDMI 2.1 port for the latest TVs and monitors, increasing total bandwidth from 18 to 48Gbps, and supporting up to 4K 120Hz and 8K 60Hz content. Two USB Type-C ports allow for plenty of connectivity—one for DisplayPort and power delivery, and a second with Thunderbolt 4 support.

The Republic of Gamers was built by those who love to play video games. All ROG designs come with gamers in mind, from the chassis, lighting integration, software controls, and macro functions. These ROG exclusive design features not only give you a competitive advantage, but they make sure you never blend in with the crowd.
