Customers are saying

Customers regard the ROG Strix 18" QHD 240Hz Gaming Laptop as a high-performance machine, particularly praising its powerful processing capabilities, stunning visuals, and smooth refresh rate. The large screen size is also a major plus for many, though some users note the significant weight and relatively short battery life as drawbacks. Positive feedback frequently highlights the impressive frame rates achieved in various games. However, the substantial size and weight may be a consideration for those who frequently transport their laptop.

    Most of my workload is on Photoshop or Illustrator. I also work with AI and was looking for at least an RTX 4080. My desktop setup is an i9 11900k with the 3090 vision. The mobo is also a vision motherboard. All the pieces are from Giga. The laptop outperforms my current desktop. So now I am also looking to upgrade the PC, I also game in my free time. Mostly COD and Starfield or the DRL. I am getting more frames on the laptop compared to the desktop. My monitor for the desktop is an Alienware 27" 240hz ips panel. I know 50 series is around the corner, but I found this at under $1800 in excellent condition so I jumped. If you are waiting to go to the 40 or 50 series, its probably worth it. I think that ddr5 is just much faster than ddr4 for workloads. Gaming probably around 20% better than ddr4. Workloads is up 40% for me. Battery life is decent when doing work (4-5 hours). Everyone knows its plugged in for gaming. I would say that this was very worth the price. I also like that this is an 18", coming from 16, I didnt think it would make a big difference, but it does.

    It's so good that I almost feel bad by saying that the battery is a bit disappointing. I guess we can't have everything acing when so many variables are involved.

    works really great, is an absolute spec monster with no issues heating or anything. ONLY issue is battery life is about an hour and a half off the start. BUT that's no big deal and i'm sure you can optimize it.

    This is the perfect laptop for my needs. It is great for gaming and other tasks. I wanted to get a tower computer, but with a small house this fits the bill perfectly. I can use this in my dressing room then move out to the living room to be with my wife. I use this more as a portable within the house desktop computer than a "Take with me to work, etc." laptop, so the weight and poor battery life that others mention really doesn't affect me. Plus, when not in use it can be put away!!!!

    Beast of a machine

    So far so yood! I bought this computer for photo editing, snd it id a BEAST. My old computer was crashing for multiple reasons, and I waited about 2 years to try and find the right machine for me. I think this should hold me stable for quite a while since it seems to be expandable! The lights are a super cool touch that although are superflous, but also very fun. The screen is interesting though. Its not your typical size and is actually quite square. The computer is massive, so expect to need to buy a new laptop case if you do not already have a beast of a laptop. Its not going to fit in most. The batter life is not as long as I expected while working in lightroom, but given what its doing ill take the 1.5ish hours of time without a chord.

    Very solid machine that will run just about any game you throw at it on max settings, although battery life is to be expected for a gaming laptop I haven't had issues as it's meant to be used while plugged in. Final thoughts: If you want a high end laptop this is a great pick if you don't want to shell out extra cash for their scar series.
