14th Gen Intel Core i9-14900HX Processor Capabilities on ROG Strix SCAR 18 (G834JYR)
The 14th Gen Intel Core processor is the latest generation of Intel processors based on a hybrid architecture, which combines Raptor Cove cores for high performance and Gracemont cores for power efficiency. Apart from supporting the latest DDR5 memory, the 14th Gen Intel Core processor is also equipped with exclusive features such as Intel Deep Learning Boost which can speed up AI computing, as well as Intel Smart Cache Technology which can improve cache performance by using a shared L3 cache between the Raptor Cove and Gracemont cores.
Apart from having the most powerful processor, ROG Strix SCAR 18 (G834JYR) is also equipped with the latest NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 series GPU graphics card, gamers can experience playing games with good graphic quality and maximum framerate without stuttering or tearing effects. Meanwhile, content creators can also complete their work faster thanks to a much shorter rendering process and multitasking capabilities.
For additional information, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 is part of the GeForce RTX 4000 Series, namely the latest generation graphics chip from NVIDIA which uses the Ada Lovelace architecture. This graphics card offers much better performance than the previous generation, with superior features such as ray tracing, DLSS 3.0, and NVIDIA Advanced Optimus.
ROG Strix SCAR 18 (G834JYR) again uses ROG Intelligent Cooling technology as the basis for its cooling system. The difference is, this new laptop is equipped with a new fan and heatsink configuration which allows this gaming laptop to always operate optimally.
The fan used in the ROG Strix SCAR 18 (G834JYR) cooling system uses a Tri-Fan configuration which combines not two, but three special fans to cool all the components in this gaming laptop. The Tri-Fan configuration presented by ASUS is said to be very effective in maintaining the operational temperature of the new ASUS laptop so that the performance provided is always optimal.
Tri-Fan isn’t the only new feature in the new ROG Strix cooling system. This latest ROG gaming laptop also has a unique heatsink design called Full-Width Heatsink.
The heatsink design stretches along the back of the new ASUS laptop body, thereby maximizing the heat dissipation process. Coupled with a fan with Arc Flow Fan technology and thermal compound in the form of liquid metal Thermal Grizzly Conductonaut Extreme, ROG Strix SCAR 18 (G834JYR) manages to maintain CPU and GPU temperatures very well.
ROG Strix SCAR 18 (G834JYR) has a 16 inch screen with QHD resolution (2560 x 1600) and a refresh rate of 240 Hz. This screen also supports NVIDIA G-SYNC technology, which can synchronize the GPU frame rate with the screen refresh rate to eliminate tearing and stuttering.
However, what makes this ROG laptop different from other gaming laptops is ROG Nebula HDR technology, which uses a Mini LED panel to create an HDR effect. Mini LED panels have smaller diodes than regular LEDs, so they can be packed into separate zones that can be turned off individually.
This makes blacks darker and light colors brighter, creating a contrast ratio of 100,000:1. ROG Nebula HDR is also equipped with a special local lighting algorithm called ROG Nebula HDR Engine.
The algorithm was trained with more than 150 videos and 2000 photos, so it can dynamically adjust HDR lighting to minimize the blooming effect around dim zones. Thus, the image looks more lively and immersive.
ROG Nebula HDR technology also ensures good visual presentation on gaming laptops thanks to 100% DCI-P3 color gamut support and has received PANTONE Validated Display certification. Apart from that, ROG Nebula HDR technology is also equipped with an Eye Care feature which can minimize the impact of blue light radiation on eye health. That’s why the ROG Strix SCAR 18 (G834JYR) can
It is said to be a gaming laptop that has the best screen quality.
For other features, this ASUS laptop comes with Windows 11 Home, Wi-Fi 6E, 4-speaker system with Smart Amplifier Technology, AI noise-canceling technology, Dolby Atmos, and Hi-Res certification. There is an FHD camera with IR, Windows Hello support and a battery with a capacity of 90WHrs and a weight of 3.1 Kg. ASUS ROG Strix SCAR 18 (G834JYR) is offered at a price of IDR 75,999,000.
