The 18-inch WQXGA (2560x1600) display in this Gray colourway gives noticeably more screen space than the more common 15-16 inch gaming laptop format, well suited to competitive/immersive gaming as well as multitasking with reference material open alongside a game. 16GB of dual-channel DDR5 memory (2xSD, i.e. two SODIMM modules) and a 1TB NVMe SSD cover system and game storage. This bundle notably includes an official ROG backpack, a padded laptop bag intended for transporting the (relatively large and heavy) 18-inch chassis safely between home, LAN events or a desk at the office. Runs Windows 11 Home, the consumer-focused edition more typical of gaming-first laptops than the Pro edition business/creator machines usually ship with, and the 18-inch chassis size also allows for a larger internal cooling system than ASUS's smaller 15/16-inch Strix models.
