18-inch WQXGA 240Hz gaming laptop

The ASUS ROG Strix G18 is an 18-inch gaming laptop built around a 2560 x 1600 display running at 240Hz. An AMD Ryzen 9 8940HX processor with 16 cores and 32 threads reaches 5.3 GHz. 32GB of DDR5 memory and a 2TB PCIe SSD ship with Windows 11 Pro.

RTX 5070 8GB GDDR7 graphics capacity

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Laptop GPU brings 8GB of GDDR7 video memory. That frame buffer handles 1440p gaming at high refresh rates and creative workloads such as video editing. Heavy 4K textures or large batch rendering will exhaust the 8GB pool.

Dual USB4 Type-C ports and HDMI 2.1

Two USB4 Type-C ports each deliver 40Gbps data with DisplayPort and G-SYNC support; one adds power delivery. An HDMI 2.1 FRL port drives external 4K high-refresh displays. RJ45 LAN and Wi-Fi 6E with Bluetooth 5.3 handle networking without extra dongles.

Questions about this item

Will the two USB 4 Type-C ports on this G18 run my existing USB 4 dock at 40 Gbps?

Both USB 4 Type-C ports support DisplayPort, power delivery and G-SYNC with data speeds up to 40 Gbps, so a compatible USB 4 dock will operate at full bandwidth.

How can I verify the 18" WQXGA panel is actually running at 240 Hz after setup?

Open Windows Display Settings or the NVIDIA control panel and confirm the refresh rate shows 240 Hz; the ROG Armoury Crate overlay can also display the active frame rate in real time.

Does the box include an HDMI 2.1 cable for the 2.1 FRL port, or must I buy one separately?

The laptop ships with its power adapter and documentation only; an HDMI 2.1 cable for the 2.1 FRL port is not included and must be purchased separately.
