The ASUS ROG Strix SCAR 18 is built for gamers and creators across South Africa who refuse to compromise. At its heart is the Intel® Core™ Ultra 9 290HX processor — 24 cores boosting up to 5.5 GHz — paired with the formidable NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 5090 Laptop GPU running at up to 175W via ROG Boost. With a MUX Switch and NVIDIA Advanced Optimus, plus a 13 TOPS Intel AI Boost NPU, it delivers desktop-class performance for the most demanding games and workloads. Visuals are every bit as serious as the silicon. The 18-inch ROG Nebula HDR display uses Mini LED technology for a dazzling 1600 nits peak brightness, a 100,000:1 contrast ratio and 100% DCI-P3 colour. A 4K (3840 × 2400) 16:10 panel runs at a blistering 240Hz with G-Sync, Dolby Vision HDR and a Pantone-validated, anti-glare low-reflection finish — so everything from fast-paced shooters to colour-critical creative work looks superb. This SCAR ships with 32GB of fast DDR5-6400 memory across two SO-DIMM slots and a speedy 2TB PCIe® 4.0 NVMe™ SSD. Thanks to dual SO-DIMM slots (expandable to 128GB) and dual M.2 slots, there’s plenty of headroom to upgrade memory and storage down the line, keeping the laptop future-ready for years…
