The ROG GX800 aims to dominate the local gaming arena, following the global recognition of the brand as one of the most powerful gaming laptops in the world today.

The ROG GX800 is a scion of the highly successful GX700, which set the gaming community ablaze during its reveal, thanks to the world’s first liquid-cooled gaming dock.

The flagship gaming laptop is equipped with an ambitious and unrivaled GX800 Housing and the latest NVIDIAGeForce GTX 1080 and is powered by Intel K-series CPU. It has also two 330W power adapters that promise a no-nonsense gaming experience.

The ROG GX800 has 4K UHD display – allowing gamers to experience visuals beyond their imagination with outstanding system stability. The 18-inch ROG GX800 is the world’s first gaming laptop to provide real 4K UHD gameplay with NVIDIA G-SYNC Technology.

It is no wonder that experts around the world are impressed with the ROG GX800. In 2016, Business Insider hailed the ROG GX800 “as one of the most powerful gaming laptops in the world right now”.

The GX800 is the world’s most powerful Windows 10 powered gaming laptop packed with an unlocked Intel Core-i7-7820HK Quad-Core processor partnered two of the latest and most powerful laptop graphics to date, the NVIDIA GTX1080 on SLI that transcends the gameplay of gamers to an unfamiliar realm – a frontier that boasts the fastest frame rates beyond imaginable and visuals rendered down to the tiniest of details.

It also has a plug-and-play compatibility with leading virtual reality headsets that offers a fully immersive VR environment.

The Hydro Overclocking System gives ROG GX800 superior cooling for real 4K UHD gaming so you experience more realistic visuals and smoother and faster frame rates. When compared with gaming laptops featuring a single GPU, ROG GX800 gives you double the frame rate and more detailed visuals for truly immersive gaming, even at ultra-settings.

The GX800 also has the thinnest mechanical keyboard with RGB LED and anti-ghost tech for each key.

Push it to the limits

The GX800’s capacity for superior overclocking performance pushes the Intel K-series CPU overclocking possibilities to 4.4GHz and beyond. Meanwhile, its graphic cards can be overclocked to 1961MHz while the VRAM and DRAM can reach up to 5200MHz and 2800MHz respectively.

Therefore it is no surprise that it scores 76% higher than other gaming laptops in 3DMark 11 graphics and Fire Strike Ultra benchmark tests.

What’s inside the box?

ROG GX800 comes with a bundled backpack, so when you’re on the move, it goes with you. In addition, the specially-designed ROG Command Case features foam liners to protect your gaming kit from bumps and knocks during transport.
