18-inch 2.5K 240Hz gaming laptop

The ASUS ROG Strix G18 is an 18-inch gaming laptop built around a 2.5K 240Hz display and an Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX processor with 24 cores. It ships with 64GB of DDR4 memory and a 4TB PCIe SSD. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Laptop GPU provides 8GB of DDR7 video memory. Windows 11 Home comes pre-installed.

Professional upgrade service and port layout

The supplier opens the factory seal to install the memory and storage upgrades, then tests the system before shipping. This reduces the chance of factory defects but means the original packaging shows signs of opening. The chassis includes three USB-A 3.2 ports, one Thunderbolt 4 port, one USB-C 3.2 port, one HDMI 2.1 FRL output and an RJ45 Ethernet jack.

Power, dimensions and upgrade limits

The unit measures 15.71 by 11.73 by 1.26 inches and weighs 7.05 lbs, so confirm your bag or desk space can accommodate it. The 64GB DDR4 configuration and 4TB PCIe SSD are already at the supplied specification; no further memory or storage slots are described in the data. Verify that your peripherals match the available USB-A, USB-C, Thunderbolt 4 and HDMI 2.1 connections.
