PERFORMANCE
PEERLESS PERFORMANCE
Draw more frames and win more games with the gaming horsepower of the 2023 ROG Strix SCAR 17 with Windows 11 Pro. Tackle any enemy with an AMD Ryzen™ 9 7945HX processor, paired with an NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 4090 Laptop GPU powered by an incredible 175W max TGP. A dedicated MUX Switch with NVIDIA Optimus support lets the SCAR 17 intelligently prioritize gaming performance or battery life automatically. Leave loading screens behind thanks to PCIe Gen4x4 solid state storage. With DDR5 memory bringing more bandwidth to the table than ever before, the SCAR 17 is ready to leave the competition in the dust.
Ryzen to the Challenge
Power through any game or project with an AMD Ryzen™ 9 7945HX processor, featuring up to a 65W TDP. Bringing 16 cores and 32 threads to a laptop form factor, this processor is here to help you dominate all of your games, no matter what you have running in the background.
GPU Power Unleashed
Powered by NVIDIA DLSS 3, ultra-efficient Ada Lovelace arch, Max-Q Technologies, the NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 4090 Laptop GPU is fully unleashed with a max TGP of 175W on Strix SCAR 17. Higher power limits unlock even more performance from this cutting-edge silicon, ensuring you have the absolute best gaming experience.
NVIDIA® Advanced Optimus
With NVIDIA® Advanced Optimus, the laptop can automatically route frames from the discrete GPU directly to the display using a MUX switch, bypassing the integrated graphics. This pathing improves performance 5-10% compared to machines without a MUX Switch, making sure you get the absolute best gaming experience—all without needing touch a single button. This automatic switching also preserves your machine's battery life, as it can dynamically transition between the high- power discrete GPU and the lower power integrated GPU. No matter what you’re doing, your machine will switch to the most optimized mode without you having to lift a finger.
Blazing Fast DDR5 Memory
Leveraging the brand new DDR5 standard, enjoy a huge generational performance jump to 4800Mhz, with write times 50% faster than DDR4 equipped machines. This ultra-fast memory makes all aspects of the laptop feel snappy, from intense gaming to light web browsing.
Better. Faster. Stronger.
Take on even the largest projects with confidence thanks to a PCIE Gen4 performance SSD. With raw throughput up to 7000MB/s, massive files and detailed game worlds will load in the blink of an eye.
Powerful components require a robust cooling solution. The 2023 ROG SCAR 17 utilizes Thermal Grizzly’s Conductonaut Extreme liquid metal on both CPU and GPU. An ultra-high performance thermal interface material, Conductonaut Extreme can keep these components up to 15°C cooler than traditional thermal pastes. When paired with a custom vapor chamber and four dedicated exhaust vents, this thermal solution transfers heat out of the system incredibly efficiently. ROG’s Intelligent Cooling™ technology allows critical components like the CPU and GPU to maintain higher boost frequencies for longer periods of time, keeping your framerates smooth and steady even during extended gaming sessions. The SCAR 17 keeps noise in check, too: when in Performance mode, the machine does not exceed 40 dB.

Powerful components require a robust cooling solution. The 2023 ROG SCAR 17 utilizes Thermal Grizzly’s Conductonaut Extreme liquid metal on both CPU and GPU. An ultra-high performance thermal interface material, Conductonaut Extreme can keep these components up to 15°C cooler than traditional thermal pastes.

The SCAR 17 keeps noise in check, too: when in Performance mode, the machine does not exceed 40 dB.
Beat the heat
Heat dissipation is faster and more efficient with our vapor chamber design, which vastly increases surface area compared to traditional heatpipe systems. Unlike conventional heat pipes that only transfer heat along their axis, vapor chamber designs spread heat across their entire surface, rapidly absorbing and dissipating waste heat without adding extra bulk to the machine. This efficient transfer also keeps the surface of the laptop cooler, keeping your hands comfortable for the entire game.
Unleash the Grizzly
The 2023 Strix SCAR 17 features Thermal Grizzly’s cutting-edge Conductonaut Extreme liquid metal on both the CPU and GPU. Compared to traditional thermal pastes, this indium- and gallium-based compound offers 17X higher conductivity, in addition to CPU and GPU temperature reductions of up to 15 degrees. Used exclusively by ROG, this material offers the highest thermal transfer available on a laptop.
*Temperature improvements compared to the previous gen thermal compound, as tested internally by ASUS. Thermal conductivity compared to industry standard.
SOFTWARE
ENDLESS CUSTOMIZATION
When you want to tweak settings, monitor temperatures, or tinker with your laptop, Armoury Crate is your command center. Real-time monitoring allows you to see what your GPU, CPU and memory are doing. RGB can be adjusted on a game-by-game basis with Aura Sync. Fan and power profiles allow you to change the acoustics, power delivery, and thermal characteristics of the laptop on the fly. And exclusive game deals keep your library topped off at all times.
MACRO KEYS
Armoury Crate also supports full customization of the dedicated hotkeys. By default they act as volume control, microphone mute and a quick launch for Armoury Crate, but with a few adjustments you can make them work for you. Create a function key for quick toggle when needed, a macro for complicated button combinations, or even a quick launch button for the application of your choice. Make your machine uniquely yours.
PERFORMANCE MODES
More than just simple fan curves, Armoury Crate’s performance modes serve to transform your machine from a silent, power sipping web browser to a full gaming battlestation with maximum horsepower. And for those that require even more granular control, Manual mode removes all limiters and lets you make a custom profile that suits your exact needs. For more information on Performance Modes, check out our full guide here.
GAME VISUAL
ROG GameVisual software offers six expertly tuned graphic modes designed to optimize your visual experience for specific game genres. First Person Shooter (FPS) mode, for example, enhances visibility in dark environments, allowing you to get the drop on any enemies lurking in the shadows. Use GameVisual to get the best experience for every game in your library.
AURA CREATOR
Customize the RGB lighting on Aura-compatible peripherals to suit your gaming style. Aura Creator’s easy-to-use control panel allows you to alter a brilliant spectrum of lighting effects and colors, in addition to swapping preset lighting modes, you can also activate Aura Sync to match colors and effects across multiple devices.
AURA WALLPAPER
This brand new feature in Armoury Crate 5.0 allows you to synchronize an animated desktop wallpaper with your laptop's RGB lighting. Choose between multiple ROG-themed wallpapers and RGB effects to give your rig a completely unified look. Additional wallpapers can be downloaded directly from Armoury Crate, and the application can easily be controlled from the Windows system tray.
SCENARIO PROFILES
Automatic switching between Silent, Performance, and Turbo modes is just the beginning for Scenario Profiles. You can also define application-specific preferences for other vital system settings, like the lighting configuration and whether the Windows key or touchpad are enabled. Armoury Crate makes adjustments in an instant to best fit the task at hand, and you can configure each profile exactly how you want.
The Strix SCAR 17’s sporty Armor Cap adds even more personality to the machine. Subtle cut-outs and icons adorn the exterior and add even more intrigue to the bottom of the laptop, setting the system apart at any angle.
Wrapped into a robust milled aluminum chassis, the Strix SCAR 17 is ready to go with you anywhere.
A lightbar adds a bit of glow and is configurable with Aura Sync. Paired with the RGB keyboard, you can easily illuminate your domain.
DISPLAY
LIGHTNING FAST, CRYSTAL CLEAR
You can’t beat the enemy if you don’t see them coming. The Strix SCAR 17 has ultra-fast panel options for every scenario, making sure you’ll never miss a moment. This 17-inch machine offers either a QHD 240Hz panel. With refresh rates that fast and response times as low as 3ms, you can make pixel-perfect decisions even in the most frenetic firefights. Each IPS panel offers fantastic color, Dolby Vision HDR, and Adaptive-Sync for a stellar gaming and viewing experience.
AUDIO
STUDIO-QUALITY SOUND
Dolby Atmos-powered speakers create an authentic sound stage for your games. Hi-Res audio ensures you hear your music in the same quality it was recorded. Two-Way AI Noise Cancelation processes both incoming and outgoing audio to filter any errant background noises, making sure that your calls, chats and streams come through without distraction.
TWO-WAY AI NOISE CANCELATION
Our advanced Two-Way AI Noise Cancelation technology runs on the CPU, which frees up the GPU to hit higher FPS. It works with any input device and also with downstream connections, letting you remove noise from both your own mic input and from incoming feeds. Noise-canceling settings can even be customized per program, filtering specific apps like voice chat without affecting game audio you want to remain untouched.
CONTROL
PRESS THE ATTACK
Built to last, the Strix SCAR's keyboard switches are rated to last over 20 million presses. The WASD keys can rest easy, durable enough to stand the test of time. Per-key RGB lighting allows for unlimited flexibility via Aura Sync, including game specific lighting layouts.
