ASUS ROG Strix Scar 18 gaming laptop 18" 2.5K 240Hz Intel Ultra 9 275HX RTX 5070 Ti 12GB 64GB

Built for competitive gaming

The ROG Strix Scar 18 is an 18-inch laptop aimed at players who want high frame rates on a large screen. It pairs an Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX processor with 24 cores and a 5.4 GHz turbo frequency with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti laptop GPU carrying 12GB of GDDR7 memory. Sixty-four gigabytes of DDR5 and a 1TB PCIe SSD complete the platform. Windows 11 Home and an Office 2021 licence ship pre-installed.

240 Hz QHD+ panel

The single specification that decides fit is the 18-inch 2560 x 1600 display running at 240 Hz. This resolution and refresh combination targets competitive titles where motion clarity matters more than 4K detail. If your workflow or favourite games need a different aspect ratio, a touch layer, or a lower refresh rate to save battery, this panel will not match those requirements.

Opened for upgrade and test

The factory seal is broken by engineers to install the listed memory and storage, then the system is stress-tested before shipment. This means the laptop arrives with the upgraded components already verified, but it also means the original packaging shows signs of opening. Buyers should inspect the chassis for cosmetic marks on arrival and confirm that the upgraded RAM and SSD are recognised in BIOS before relying on the machine for critical work.
