Beat the best, carve your legacy
Draw more frames and win more games with the gaming horsepower of the 2023 ROG Strix SCAR 17 with Windows 11. Tackle any enemy with an AMD Ryzen™ 9 7945HX Mobile Processor, paired with an NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 4080 Laptop GPU powered by an incredible 175W max TGP. A dedicated MUX Switch with NVIDIA Optimus support lets the SCAR 17 intelligently prioritize gaming performance or battery life automatically. Leave loading screens behind thanks to PCIe Gen4x4 solid state storage. With DDR5 memory bringing more bandwidth to the table than ever before, the SCAR 17 is ready to leave the competition in the dust.
Ryzen to the Challenge
Power through any game or project with an AMD Ryzen™ 9 7945HX processor, featuring up to a 65W TDP. Bringing 16 cores and 32 threads to a laptop form factor, this processor is here to help you dominate all of your games, no matter what you have running in the background.
GPU Power Unleashed
Powered by NVIDIA DLSS 3, ultra-efficient Ada Lovelace arch, Max-Q Technologies, the NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 4080 Laptop GPU is fully unleashed with a max TGP of 175W on Strix SCAR 17. Higher power limits unlock even more performance from this cutting-edge silicon, ensuring you have the absolute best gaming experience.
NVIDIA® Advanced Optimus
With NVIDIA® Advanced Optimus, the laptop can automatically route frames from the discrete GPU directly to the display using a MUX switch, bypassing the integrated graphics. This pathing improves performance 5-10% compared to machines without a MUX Switch, making sure you get the absolute best gaming experience-all without needing touch a single button. This automatic switching also preserves your machine's battery life, as it can dynamically transition between the high- power discrete GPU and the lower power integrated GPU. No matter what you're doing, your machine will switch to the most optimized mode without you having to lift a finger.
ROG Intelligent cooling
Powerful components require a robust cooling solution. The 2023 ROG SCAR 17 utilizes Thermal Grizzly's Conductonaut Extreme liquid metal on both CPU and GPU. An ultra-high performance thermal interface material, Conductonaut Extreme can keep these components up to 15°C cooler than traditional thermal pastes. When paired with a custom vapor chamber and four dedicated exhaust vents, this thermal solution transfers heat out of the system incredibly efficiently. ROG's Intelligent Cooling™ technology allows critical components like the CPU and GPU to maintain higher boost frequencies for longer periods of time, keeping your framerates smooth and steady even during extended gaming sessions. The SCAR 17 keeps noise in check, too: when in Performance mode, the machine does not exceed 40 dB.
Beat the heat
Heat dissipation is faster and more efficient with our vapor chamber design, which vastly increases surface area compared to traditional heatpipe systems. Unlike conventional heat pipes that only transfer heat along their axis, vapor chamber designs spread heat across their entire surface, rapidly absorbing and dissipating waste heat without adding extra bulk to the machine. This efficient transfer also keeps the surface of the laptop cooler, keeping your hands comfortable for the entire game.
Studio-quality sound
Dolby Atmos-powered speakers create an authentic sound stage for your games. Hi-Res audio ensures you hear your music in the same quality it was recorded. Two-Way AI Noise Cancelation processes both incoming and outgoing audio to filter any errant background noises, making sure that your calls, chats and streams come through without distraction.
Two-way AI noise cancelation
Our advanced Two-Way AI Noise Cancelation technology runs on the CPU, which frees up the GPU to hit higher FPS. It works with any input device, also with downstream connections, letting you remove noise from both your own mic input and from incoming feeds. Noise-canceling settings can even be customized per program, filtering specific apps like voice chat without affecting game audio you want to remain untouched.
Pres the attack
Built to last, the Strix SCAR's keyboard switches are rated to last over 20 million presses. The WASD keys can rest easy, durable enough to stand the test of time. Per-key RGB lighting allows for unlimited flexibility via Aura Sync, including game specific lighting layouts.
Stay connected
In modern multiplayer games, a stable internet connection is imperative. The SCAR 17 is ready to join the fight with a dedicated RJ45 port supporting 2.5G LAN, as well as the latest Wi-Fi 6E wireless standard. For local connections, the SCAR 17 supports Bluetooth 5.2, enabling seamless pairing with all of your peripherals. Never lag out again.
