The sRGB color space is the most widely used for digital materials today. With 100% sRGB*, our displays can reproduce all the colors in this range for picture-perfect fidelity.
*Only available on configurations featuring 240Hz displays.
Adaptive-Sync
Game performance varies constantly depending on what you’re playing and what’s happening in the scene. Most displays refresh at a constant rate, which creates problems when new frames aren’t ready at the right time. Adaptive-Sync dynamically adjusts the refresh rate of the display to fit the frame rate of the GPU, minimizing stuttering and input lag, and eliminating visual tearing that can ruin immersion.
Comprehensive cooling coverage
Efficient heat redistribution enables faster dissipation and higher sustained speeds. Our tailored system of copper heatpipes absorbs warmth from the CPU, GPU, VRM and VRAM quickly transfers it away. An extended heat spreader on the CPU further helps keep the processor at optimum temperatures for reliable performance, even under serious stress.
Enhanced self-cleaning cooling
Self-cleaning cooling helps keep critical components free of debris to maintain optimal thermal dissipation. Our upgraded design features shorter anti-dust tunnels that leave up to 5% more space around the fan, improving airflow by up to 15%. They channel dust away from the fan blades, heatsink fins, and other cooling components to ensure the long-term stability and reliability of your system.
Improved heatsinks
Thermal energy is dissipated by heatsinks in the flanks. Each one is lined with thin fins that create significant surface area for heat dissipation with minimal air resistance. The new design includes four heatsinks and fan outlets that expel heat faster and more efficiently from the ultraslim chassis.
n-Blade fans
Slim chassis leave little room for cooling, so we enhance every aspect of the n-Blade fans to maximize airflow. The intakes are carefully shaped and positioned to draw in more air. Once the air’s inside, it’s blasted toward the heatsinks by 83 blades that are thinner than conventional designs, yet strong enough to spin at high RPMs. With 0dB Technology, the fans switch off completely when CPU and GPU temperatures drop below 50°C in the Silent operating mode. This makes cooling truly silent under light workloads.
Scenario Profiles
Scenario Profiles automatically change operating modes to optimize performance and acoustics for the task at hand. Turbo mode uses the highest fan speed and clocks to sustain maximum speed, Performance mode adjusts the clocks and cooling to lower noise levels for gaming, and Silent mode runs even quieter for lighter work and entertainment. Customize Scenario Profiles to seamlessly switch modes based on your preferences, or use a keyboard shortcut to change modes manually.
Gaming hotkeys
Four dedicated gaming hotkeys allow for quick access features like volume, mic mute, and our Armoury Crate system utility. Switch on your mic to strategize with your team or turn up the volume to hear every enemy movement in your vicinity without tabbing out of your game.
Thunderbolt 4
With 4x the throughput of USB 3.1, Thunderbolt™ 4 offers fast connectivity to a massive range of devices. Use its enormous bandwidth to hook up an external GPU to amp up your graphics power for Ultra HD gaming or 3D rendering. Connect to a docking station to create a desktop-like setup anywhere. Support for DisplayPort™ 1.4 lets you connect two 4K displays at 60Hz, or one 8K UHD TV or monitor for immersive and realistic visuals.
Type-C charging
USB Power Delivery supports secondary charging from portable power packs, so you don't have to fight for a socket when the battery gets low. Fast-charging support reverses the direction, using up to 3A to quickly rejuvenate smartphones and other devices. If you’re not loading the CPU or discrete GPU with intensive tasks, you can use a smaller adapter up to 100W that lightens your load on the road.
*USB power pack and Type-C adapter sold separately
Wi-Fi 6
Ultrafast Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) lets you game reliably at LAN speeds wherever compatible connections are available. Network connectivity is faster and more efficient, which is especially useful in crowded spaces where traffic is high. Wi-Fi 6 also boasts an updated Target Wake Time mechanism that extends battery life and a new WPA3 security standard that improves wireless protection.
