18-inch Mini LED 240 Hz display for competitive

The ROG Strix SCAR 18 combines an 18.0" Mini LED WQXGA panel at 2560x1600 with a 240 Hz refresh rate. It runs on an Intel Ultra 9 275HX processor reaching 5.4 GHz turbo across 24 cores. An NVIDIA RTX 5070 Ti with 12 GB GDDR7 and 64 GB DDR5 SO-DIMM memory backs the graphics pipeline. The system ships with Windows 11 Pro on a 2 TB PCIe NVMe SSD.

Check power and peripheral needs before ordering

The unit includes a 380 W power adapter and a 90 WHr 4-cell battery. Verify that your workspace can accommodate the 380 W brick and that your external displays support the available HDMI and Thunderbolt 5 outputs. The laptop provides RJ-45 Ethernet, Bluetooth 5.4 and 802.11be wireless. No optical drive is fitted, so any legacy media will require an external solution.

Aluminium chassis with per-key RGB and dual

The off-black chassis measures 15.75 IN deep by 11.75 IN wide by 1.5 IN high and weighs 7.3 lb. A per-key RGB keyboard and integrated webcam face the user. Two Thunderbolt 5 ports sit alongside HDMI and a combo audio jack for high-speed docks or storage. The 90 WHr battery and 380 W adapter travel together in most backpacks. Velztorm opened the original box to install the advertised memory and storage upgrades.
