Check out the 2023 ASUS ROG gaming laptop lineup!

ASUS ROG Strix SCAR 16, Strix SCAR 18

ROG Strix SCAR 16 and SCAR 18

The Strix SCAR 16 and 18 have been renamed due to a new chassis that supports the larger 16-inch and 18-inch 16:10 aspect-ratio screens. Both variants now support the most recent ROG QHD, 240Hz Nebula HDR display with Mini LED technology.

Improved cooling provided by ROG's redesigned chassis enables the CPU and GPU to accelerate for maximum framerates. For more effective heat removal, the new Strix SCAR 16 and 18 incorporate a full-width heatsink and Tri-Fan Technology. The high-end components of the SCAR 16 and SCAR 18 now function more effectively because of ROG's use of Thermal Grizzly's Conductonaut Extreme liquid metal.
