Brilliant Visuals

This year marks the introduction of the first ROG 18-inch display powered by Mini LED technology. HDR content and games have arrived on the big screen with the arrival of the 2024 Strix SCAR 18, with its Nebula HDR Display boasts over 2000 discrete dimming zones and 1100 nits of peak brightness. On an 18-inch panel, this dimming zone density, coupled with the ROG Nebula HDR Engine, minimizes blooming and haloing even in challenging scenes, giving the Strix SCAR 18 incredibly vivid HDR performance. While the ROG Nebula HDR panels exclusive to the Strix SCAR line are truly spectacular; all the displays in the 2024 Strix family are visually stunning.

Each model features a 2.5K panel with a 240 Hz refresh rate and under 3 ms gray-to-gray (GTG) response time, giving gamers exceptional visual experiences. For further immersion, these panels have an extra-tall 16:10 aspect ratio and 100% coverage of the DCI-P3 color space. Dolby Vision® support ensures that the color content on the screen will look exactly as the creator intended, and Dolby Atmos support further increases immersion with expansive and realistic soundstages. No matter which Strix machine a gamer chooses, they will have a display that makes all their games and content more vivid and immersive than ever before.

All ROG laptops still retain their Conductonaut Extreme liquid metal as the thermal interface between the CPU and their heatsinks, which drastically reduces temperatures compared to traditional thermal pastes not only boost higher and longer, but it also keeps them running at their absolute best for years to come .
