18-inch WQXGA 240Hz gaming laptop

The ASUS ROG Strix G18 pairs an AMD Ryzen 9 9955HX 16-core processor with an NVIDIA RTX 5070 GPU and 128 GB of DDR5 memory. The 18.0-inch IPS-level panel runs at 2560 x 1600 resolution and a 240 Hz refresh rate. A 2 TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD provides primary storage. Windows 11 Pro comes pre-installed.

Thermal upgrades and power profile

HIDevolution applies Thermal Grizzly Conductonaut on the CPU and Gelid GC Extreme on the GPU to lower operating temperatures under load. The 16-core Ryzen 9 9955HX reaches a max turbo frequency of 5.4 GHz with 64 MB of L3 cache. The RTX 5070 carries 8 GB of GDDR7 video memory. The chassis measures 15.71 x 11.57 x 0.91 to 1.21 inches and weighs 6.61 lbs.

Factory-customised replacement for stock

This unit replaces a standard ROG Strix G18 by adding 128 GB of DDR5 5600 dual-channel RAM, a 2 TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD, and premium thermal compounds on both processors. The upgrade jump is worthwhile when workloads demand high memory capacity, faster storage throughput, and sustained clock speeds without thermal throttling.

Questions about this item

How do I install the pre-applied Thermal Grizzly Conductonaut on the CPU and Gelid GC Extreme on the GPU?

The liquid-metal Conductonaut and Gelid GC Extreme are already applied by the builder; no user installation is required and opening the chassis risks damaging the existing thermal interface.

When will the 128 GB DDR5 5600 MHz memory or 2 TB PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe SSD need replacement?

Both components are solid-state with no moving parts; they typically last the laptop's lifetime unless a fault occurs, so no scheduled replacement is expected.

What thermal limit appears first during sustained loads on the Ryzen 9 9955HX and RTX 5070?

The CPU can reach its max turbo frequency of 5.4 GHz, but prolonged heavy workloads will hit the thermal ceiling of the cooling solution before power limits are reached.
