The Need For Speed
Game with confidence thanks to Windows 11 Home and an Intel® CoreTM Ultra 9 processor 290HX Plus. Backed up by the serious gaming muscle of an NVIDIA® GeForce RTXTM 5080 Laptop GPU and 32GB of DDR5 RAM, the 2026 Strix G18 has the perfect amount of power to keep you gaming at peak performance. With additional features like NVIDIA Max-Q technologies, including Advanced Optimus, NVIDIA DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation, and a 2TB PCIe Gen 4 SSD, the Strix G18 is truly a force to be reckoned with.

ROG Intelligent Cooling
The cooling solution of the 2026 Strix G18 is designed to ensure that you get the best gaming experience with your machine, every time. We’ve relocated all of the exhaust vents to the rear of the hinge, keeping warm air away from your mousing hand. The sides and bottom of the machine act as an air intake, creating a natural, efficient path for airflow. Air also flows through the keyboard deck, keeping your hands cooler during intense gaming sessions. When pairing an end-to-end vapor chamber with a sandwiched heatsink, Tri-Fan Technology, and Conductonaut Extreme liquid metal on both CPU and GPU, the 2026 Strix G18 achieves a lower noise level in Turbo Mode compared to the previous generation, while still offering the same calculated excellence you expect from a Strix machine.

ROG Nebula HDR Display
Your laptop’s display is a window into new worlds, which is why we put the absolute best on our ROG Strix G18. This ROG Nebula HDR display with Mini LED technology features over 2000 dimming zones, 1200 nits of peak brightness, and beautiful colors thanks to 100% coverage of the DCI-P3 color space. The 2026 Strix G18 also features AGLR (anti-glare and low reflection) technology, which reduces reflections by 55% and provides up to 4.5x better contrast, ensuring the image stays punchy, vivid, and accurate. When combined with our own Nebula HDR engine, this display ensures every game and movie is done true justice. And with a blazing fast refresh rate of 240Hz and full NVIDIA® G-SYNC support, motion will be incredibly smooth, allowing you to see every enemy before they see you.
Victory, accelerated
The 2026 Strix SCAR 18 offers the very best Windows 11 Pro gaming experience, featuring an Intel® Core™ Ultra 9 290HX Plus processor and up to an NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 5090 Laptop GPU. Both the memory and storage are user-upgradeable, supporting up to 128GB (64+64) of DDR5-6400 memory and 8TB (4+4) of ultra-fast SSD space. A user-friendly tool-less design allows for easy upgrades to both the memory and SSD slots, letting you grow your game library without a hassle for years.
