The latest ROG Strix Scar 17 Special Edition brings game-changing enhancements to your eSports experience. It is equipped with an aluminium lid, which features a new covert design overhaul. Additionally, all Strix SCAR 2022 staples are still present in the special edition, along with the high-resolution QHD 240Hz 3ms panel. The chassis, keyboard, and trackpad maintain the well-known advantages of the SCAR 2022. 

Along with the use of liquid metal on both CPU and GPU, SCAR SE has introduced a new Vapor Chamber that replaces the heat pipes to improve heat dissipation as it covers up to 48.8% of the motherboard area. The ROG slash pattern hides a wealth of Easter Eggs under invisible ink, some of them with a close connection to our new Citadel game, SCAR Runner, which is a free-to-play game with cutting-edge product-display functionality, that will allow you to understand ASUS products interactively.

Commenting on the launch, Arnold Su, Business Head, Consumer and Gaming PC, System Business Group, ASUS India, stated, “We at ASUS believe in constantly nurturing the gaming journey of e-sports enthusiasts and providing the right infrastructure for the rising talents.
