ROG INTELLIGENT COOLING
To accommodate such powerful components, the Strix G18’s chassis and motherboard were both designed to accommodate our high-performance full-width heatsink, whose fins were moved even closer to the exhaust vents for more efficient cooling. The full-width heatsink is built from three different sections, surrounding the motherboard with densely-packed fins for a total surface area of 195,509mm², a 92% increase from the 2022 Strix G17. This design maximizes the available pathing for hot air to escape the machine and drastically increases overall airflow.

Finally, most gaming laptops have a dual fan cooling system, but the G18 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 G18’s cooling system is a marvel of engineering.
*Conductonaut Extreme liquid metal is applied to the GPU on models with an RTX™ 4080 GPU only
