18-inch WUXGA gaming laptop

The ASUS ROG Strix G18 G814PH-ES94-HID4P is an 18-inch Windows 11 Pro laptop built for high-frame-rate gaming and multi-threaded workloads. A 16-core Ryzen 9 8940HX processor runs at 2.4 GHz with a 5.2 GHz max turbo frequency and 64 MB L3 cache. Sixteen gigabytes of DDR5 5600 MHz memory and an RTX 5050 GPU with 8 GB GDDR7 complete the core platform.

RTX 5050 with 8 GB GDDR7

The discrete NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 graphics card carries 8 GB of GDDR7 video memory. This specification determines whether the system can drive modern titles at the native 1920 x 1200 resolution and 144 Hz refresh rate of the IPS-level panel. Buyers should match this GPU against the specific titles and quality settings they intend to run.

8 TB PCIe 4.0 storage and 16 GB RAM

Dual 4 TB M.2 PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe SSDs provide 8 TB of total capacity for large game libraries and media projects. The 16 GB dual-channel DDR5 kit handles current multitasking and mainstream creative applications; memory-intensive workloads such as heavy virtualization or large dataset processing will exceed the installed RAM.
