Built for high-end gaming and content creation

The ASUS ROG Strix SCAR 18 is an 18-inch gaming laptop powered by an Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX 24-core processor and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 GPU with 16GB GDDR7 memory. It pairs 64GB DDR5 RAM with a 1TB PCIe SSD and runs Windows 11 Pro. The 2560 x 1600 Mini LED display runs at 240Hz with a 3ms response time for smooth, detailed visuals.

Laptop requires no assembly but seal is opened

The unit arrives fully assembled. The manufacturer seal is opened by engineers to install or verify the 64GB memory and 1TB SSD, then the system is tested before shipping. This reduces factory defects but means the original box seal will not be intact. No user installation is needed for the core components.

Suits users who want maximum mobile performance

This configuration targets enthusiasts and professionals who need desktop-class CPU and GPU power in an 18-inch form factor with a high-refresh Mini LED panel. Buyers who prioritise thinner, lighter chassis, longer unplugged runtime, or a lower price point should consider smaller or less powerful models.
