ROG STRIX SCAR 18

The SCAR 16 is equipped with some of the world’s most powerful gaming hardware. Its overclocked 13th Gen Intel^® Core^™ Processor paired with GeForce RTX^™ 40 Series Laptop GPU make gaming flawless and streaming effortless, while its PCIe Gen 4x4 SSD storage and 4800MHz DDR5 RAM make loading and thing of the past.  

To accommodate such powerful components, the Strix SCAR 18’s chassis and motherboard were both redesigned to accommodate a new full-width heatsink, while the copper fins were moved even closer to the exhaust vents for more efficient cooling. This design maximizes the available pathing for hot air to escape the machine and drastically increases overall cooling.

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 heat pipes and Conductonaut Extreme liquid metal on both the CPU and GPU, the SCAR 18’s cooling system is a marvel of engineering.
