Overview

Comfort and performance with an 18" Mini LED QHD 240 Hz screen

The ASUS ROG STRIX SCAR 18 Gaming Laptop lets you play your favourite PC games in the best possible conditions, thanks to its high-performance components, 240 Hz screen and top-of-the-range design that leaves nothing to chance. The ASUS ROG STRIX SCAR 18 G834JYR-R6185W Gamer Notebook offers high performance thanks to its Intel i9-14900HX processor, 64 GB of DDR5 memory, two 1 TB PCIe M.2 SSDs in RAID 0 and its NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 graphics chip.

Performance and comfort for gamers

With an 18-inch screen, you can play more comfortably and see your enemies more clearly! Powered by an Intel Core i9-14900HX processor and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 notebook GPU with a maximum TGP of 175W, the SCAR 18 easily handles the most demanding games. It also features a dedicated MUX switch with support for NVIDIA Advanced Optimus, allowing you to fully exploit the power of your GPU when gaming.

Supporting up to 64GB of DDR5 RAM and up to 4TB of PCIe Gen4x4 storage, the SCAR 18 lets you play, stream and create content at the same time without breaking a sweat. High-level components require power, and even more so when it comes to boosting the performance of your GPU. Powered by NVIDIA DLSS 3, the ultra-efficient Ada Lovelace architecture and Max-Q technologies, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 notebook GPU unleashes its full power to reach a maximum GPT of 175W with Dynamic Boost.

Smooth display with a 240 Hz screen

For gamers who demand the best motion and image clarity, the SCAR 18 features an incredible Nebula display with 240Hz refresh rate, 100% DCI-P3 coverage and a stunning 1100 nits of brightness for stunning gameplay. The 18-inch 16:10 QHD panel delivers stunning black depth for spectacular content, whether it's a movie or an arena shooter.

High-performance cooling

To accommodate such powerful components, the chassis and motherboard of the Strix SCAR 18 have been designed to accommodate a full-width heatsink, while the copper fins have been moved closer to the exhaust vents for more efficient cooling. This unique heatsink is made up of three different sections, surrounding the motherboard with very dense fins for a total surface area of 195,509 mm², an increase of 82.5% compared to the 2022 Strix SCAR 17. This design maximises the path available for hot air to escape from the machine and significantly increases overall cooling. Finally, the SCAR 18 has been able to push the limits of performance even further thanks to the introduction of a third fan that helps keep the GPU and VRAM cool. Combined with seven heatpipes and Conductonaut Extreme liquid metal on the CPU and GPU, the SCAR 18's cooling system is an engineering marvel.

Superior audio quality

Dolby Atmos-powered speakers include two tweeters and two downward-firing woofers to create an authentic soundstage as you play. High-resolution audio lets you hear your music in the same quality as when it was recorded. Two Way AI Noise Cancelation processes incoming and outgoing audio signals to filter out all background noise, ensuring your calls, chats and streams are transmitted without disturbance.

Backlit eSport keyboard

The difference between winning and losing can be decided by a single keystroke, which is why the SCAR 18 features a professional-grade eSport keyboard designed to ensure victory. Built to last, the switches on the Strix SCAR keyboard are designed to withstand over 20 million presses, while the n-key rollover function ensures that your system never misses a command, even if you press several keys at once. The SCAR has a large keyboard with multimedia controls and dedicated shortcut keys that are set to volume and Armoury Crate controls by default, but can be customised for different functions or macros. With per-key RGB and Aura Sync customisation, the SCAR will always adopt the look that matches your mood.
