ASUS ROG STRIX SCAR 18 G834JZR-XS96 18" QHD+ Gaming Laptop [240Hz][i9-14900HX][RTX 4080 12GB][32GB DDR5][1TB SSD][Off Black]

ROG Nebula HDR Display
For gamers who demand the absolute best motion and image clarity, the Strix SCAR 18 offers an incredible Nebula HDR Display with a 240 Hz refresh rate, 100% DCI-P3 coverage, and 1100 nits of peak brightness for stunning gameplay. The 18", 16:10 aspect ratio 2.5K Mini-LED panel provides deep blacks for content that jumps right off the screen, whether you're watching a movie or playing a fast-moving arena shooter.

Dolby Vision Technology
Scene to scene, frame to frame, Dolby Vision makes media look better. The technology improves on standard high dynamic range (HDR) 4K video, dynamically adjusting visuals to make every image in front of you richer, brighter, and livelier. Creators can film and edit their streams, videos, and other content in a format commonly used by industry professionals.

Pantone Color Validation
Each IPS-level display is factory calibrated to ensure that colors are accurate to the Pantone palette. Artists, designers, and content creators can add high quality content to their portfolios and enjoy richer gaming visuals on the same machine.

100% DCI-P3 Color Coverage
While the sRGB color space is the standard for most digital visuals, it only represents about 75% of the DCI-P3 spectrum used for professional filmmaking. Displays with complete DCI-P3 coverage offer a wide color gamut and rich color, and let you see films and other media exactly the way they were meant to be seen.

To accommodate such powerful components, the Strix SCAR 18’s chassis and motherboard were both redesigned to accommodate our new full-width heatsink, while the copper fins were moved even closer to the exhaust vents for more efficient cooling. This unique heatsink is built from three different sections, surrounding the motherboard with densely packed fins for a total surface area of 195,509mm², a 82.5% increase from the 2022 Strix SCAR 17. This design maximizes the available pathing for hot air to escape the machine and drastically increases overall cooling.
Finally, most gaming laptops have a dual fan cooling system, but the SCAR 18 was able to push the performance envelope even further with the introduction of a third fan that helps keep the GPU and VRAM cool. Paired with seven heatpipes and Conductonaut Extreme liquid metal on both the CPU and GPU, the SCAR 18’s cooling system is a marvel of engineering.
