ASUS is gearing up for the launch of a new high end gaming laptop. A new leak has revealed that the company will be launching a next gen ROG Strix Scar 15 laptop with top tier specs like an AMD Ryzen 6000 series processor and NVIDIA RTX 3000 series graphics card.
According to a MyLaptopGuide report (Via WccFTech), the Taiwanese PC maker will launch the top end ROG Strix Scar 15 gaming laptop with some beefy specs. This includes the a Ryzen 9 6900HX ‘Rembrandt’ CPU and an RTX 3080 Ti GPU. Reportedly, the laptop is set to be unveiled during the CES 2022 event that will be held in January, so its surprising that the leak with key specs arrived two whole months prior to its official announcement.
Notably, the laptop was even confirmed through the FCCID registration. For those unaware, the new CPU sports 8 Zen 3+ cores along with 16 threads, which are based on the 6nm process technology. The clock speeds have not been revealed as of right now, but it is likely to be higher than the current gen Ryzen 9 5900HX CPU. On the other hand, the RTX 3080 Ti is based on NVIDIA’s latest Ampere GA103 GPU SKU and would likely have a TDP rated between 150W and 200W.
Other features of the laptop include a 15.6 inch QHD display with a 165Hz refresh rate. It will run Windows 11 Pro out of the box and arrive with up to 32GB of DDR5 4800MHz RAM along with 1TB PCIe Gen 4 NVMe M.2 SSD storage. In other words, this is also one of the first AMD powered laptops that feature DDR5 memopry and PCIe Gen 4 support, which will take on the Alder Lake counterparts from Intel. The pricing and availability of the laptop is currently unknown, but it will likely be pricey considering its high end specs.
