18-inch WQXGA 240Hz gaming laptop

The ASUS ROG Strix G18 pairs an 18-inch WQXGA panel at 240Hz with a 16-core Ryzen 9 8940HX and an RTX 5070 carrying 8GB of GDDR7. Thirty-two gigabytes of DDR5 and a 512GB PCIe SSD complete the core specification. The machine targets users who want a large high-refresh display in a single portable chassis.

Dual USB4 Type-C with DisplayPort and G-SYNC

Two USB4 Type-C ports each deliver 40Gbps data plus DisplayPort and G-SYNC support; one adds power delivery. A HDMI 2.1 FRL output, two USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A ports, a 3.5mm combo jack and an RJ45 LAN port round out the physical I/O. Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3 handle wireless duties so fewer dongles are required on the desk.

Vapor chamber cooling sustains 5.3GHz boost clocks

The CPU can hit 5.3GHz turbo across its 16 cores while the vapor chamber and liquid-metal thermal interface keep temperatures in check during extended sessions. The 240Hz panel stays responsive without throttling the RTX 5070, so frame rates remain stable in long matches or render jobs rather than spiking only in short bursts.

Questions about this item

Will the 18 inch 2560 x 1600 240Hz screen work with an external monitor over HDMI?

The HDMI 2.1 FRL port can drive an external display at the panel's native 2560 x 1600 resolution and high refresh rates.

Does the single 512GB PCIe SSD leave room for a second drive later?

The supplier opens the original seal for upgrades; the chassis supports additional storage if a compatible M.2 slot is free.

Can the two USB4 Type-C ports charge the laptop or only peripherals?

One USB4 port supports power delivery for charging; the second provides DisplayPort and G-SYNC video output up to 40Gbps.
