18-inch WQXGA 240Hz gaming laptop

The ASUS ROG Strix G18 is an 18-inch gaming laptop built around an Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX 24-core processor and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 GPU with 8GB GDDR7 memory. It targets enthusiasts who want desktop-class frame rates on a high-refresh 2560 x 1600 panel. Windows 11 Home ships pre-installed.

Upgrading from 60Hz panels or last-gen GPUs

Moving from a 60Hz display to the 240Hz WQXGA screen eliminates motion blur in fast shooters. The jump to the RTX 5070 with GDDR7 and the 24-core CPU lifts 1440p performance well beyond previous mobile parts. The upgrade pays off when you play competitive titles or run heavy creative workloads daily.

Thunderbolt 4 and Wi-Fi 7 for desk-to-go setups

Two Thunderbolt 4 ports and Wi-Fi 7 let you dock external GPUs, high-speed storage and multiple 4K monitors without cables cluttering the desk. The 2TB PCIe SSD and 16GB DDR5 handle large game libraries and multitasking. Bluetooth 5.4 keeps peripherals connected while you move between rooms.

Questions about this item

What are the exact dimensions of the ASUS ROG Strix G18 so I can check it fits my bag or desk space?

The laptop measures 17.25 x 11.75 x 1.4 inches, making it an 18.0 inch class device that needs a compartment at least that wide and deep.

How do I upgrade the 16GB DDR5 memory or 2TB PCIe SSD, and what step do people often miss?

Remove the bottom panel screws, disconnect the battery cable first, then swap the SO-DIMM or M.2 module; forgetting to unplug the battery is the common mistake.

When will the 8GB GDDR7 video memory on the RTX 5070 need replacement or servicing?

The GPU memory is soldered to the board and not user-replaceable; only a full motherboard swap would change it, which is rarely needed under normal use.
