ASUS ROG unveils most compact 17" gaming laptop

ASUS Republic of Gamers (ROG) today announced Strix SCAR II (GL704), the latest 17.3-inch addition to the ROG Strix gaming laptop lineup.

This has an industry-leading 17.3-inch display — with a 144Hz refresh rate, 3ms response time, and complete sRGB coverage — into a 15.7-inch chassis, delivering immersive visuals while allowing for greater mobility.

Strix SCAR II GL704 is equipped the latest 8th Generation Intel processors — up to Core i7-8750H — and an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 GPU with 6GB of video RAM. Strix SCAR II also includes ROG RangeBoost technology, which intelligently utilizes additional antennas to extend Wi-Fi range.

The HyperCool Pro cooling system incorporates three heatsinks and two fans, ensuring optimal system performance. The durable camouflage and Kevlar textures adorning the chassis take their design inspiration from first person shooter (FPS) games.

The ROG Strix SCAR II (GL704) will be available in September 2018. Pricing and configurations will be announced at launch
