Supporting the Core i9-12950HX CPU is a 16 GB NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti GDDR6 graphics card with a maximum TGP of 175 W. This combination, to be honest, is quite redundant even with the most popular game today. time. Images will be displayed on a high-speed 240Hz/3ms QHD resolution screen, which supports both Dobly Vision and Adaptive Sync.

Other components of ASUS ROG Strix SCAR 17 SE will also make people admire such as DDR5 4800 MHz RAM up to 64GB, PCIe Gen 4 SSD running RAID 0, WiFi 6e + 2.5 Gbps Ethernet port. In terms of ports, ASUS ROG Strix SCAR 17 SE has everything a gamer needs such as 2 USB Type-C ports that support Thunderbolt 4, 1 HDMI 2.1 port with the ability to output 4K 120Hz or 8K 60Hz.

Top notch steam chamber heatsink

To ensure a laptop with a terrible configuration like the ASUS ROG Strix SCAR 17 SE stable operation will need a worthy cooling system. That's why ASUS ROG has created an advanced cooling system. New generation Conductonaut Extreme liquid metal thermal paste is also used on both CPU and GPU to reduce up to 15 degrees.

The vapor chamber cooling system is custom-tailored by ROG engineers, so it covers up to 48.8% of the internal components to help heat quickly transfer from the CPU, GPU and other heat-emitting components to the outside environment. Combined with 4 heat dissipation slots is an ultra-thin 0.1m heatsink system and a new generation of Arc Flow 84 blades.

Exterior bold personality

Not only has strength and durability, ASUS ROG Strix SCAR 17 SE is also impressed by its personality design.

As usual, you will still be equipped with Amor Cap and RGB LED system with diverse customization possibilities. However, the uniqueness of ROG Strix SCAR 17 SE lies in the lid covered with special invisible ink. Under normal conditions you will only see the faint gray veining of the metal, but when exposed to UV light you will see green and blue textures appear.

To create this unique, one-of-a-kind detail, ASUS ROG's engineering team took 6 months of research and used up to 7 different formulas. This invisible ink also passes many tests for wear and durability, ensuring it does not peel or peel over time.
