One of the most exciting announcements in recent years is the introduction of water-cooling in a laptop. ROG is the world’s first to have a laptop benefit from water-cooling, with this amount of cooling higher performance hardware (which of course generates more heat) can be implemented, hardware can be pushed much harder and the system can be overclocked much easier. Even the Intel 6th Gen. processor can be overclocked while connected to the new water-cooling dock. ROG GX700 incorporates the latest Nvidia graphics to power games in 4K on the gorgeous 17-inch 4K IPS display – which is also a world’s first.
On the exterior the new ROG theme was shown off at IFA 2015, the Armor Titanium and Plasma Copper color scheme makes the GX700 irresistible inside and out.
ROG G752 Gaming Laptop
Like the ROG GX700, both laptops feature backlit anti-ghosting 30-key rollover to make sure key-presses are registered in the heat of the battle, and also a new dust-release thermal solution to effectively increase system stability and durability. At the core, there is the new Intel 6th Gen. processor paired with up to an Nvidia GTX 980M with 8GB of GDDR5 VRAM for heavy-duty gaming requirements. The successor to the G751 also adds Thunderbolt 3.0 technology for speeds up to 20Gb/s and a new chassis with the new ROG theme. For storage, there is the option of adding an M.2 PCIe X4 SSD with NVMe support for extreme speeds when booting-up, loading a game or transferring files. ROG G752 will come in three tasty flavors – G752VL, G752VT and G752VY.

ASUS Announces Strix Brand and Strix Pro Gaming Headset
Gaming headset boasts 60mm neodymium-magnet drivers, 90% environmental-noise cancellation, and PC, Mac, PS4 and smart-device compatibility
ASUS today announced its new Strix brand and Strix Pro, a multi-platform gaming headset engineered with powerful 60mm neodymium-magnet drivers, full-size hexagonal ear cushions (130mm across at the widest point) and technology that filters our over 90% of environmental noise. Strix Pro is compatible with PCs, Macs, PlayStation® 4 consoles and many smartphones and tablets. Taken from the ancient Roman and Greek word for owl, Strix is the brand name for the stunning new ASUS gaming-gear series. Strix means the keenest hearing and sharpest eyesight and the ability to feel the environment, enabling the player to detect and react to even the slightest movement. Strix means survival on the very edge of instinct. Strix is in gamers’ blood, just as it is in ours. The Strix brand will this year expand to include a wide variety of gaming gear, including exceptionally-agile mice, boundary-pushing keyboards, super-cool graphics cards and awesome gaming headsets. The first products to appear are graphics cards and Strix Pro — a high-style gaming headset inspired by the owl’s unique combination of supreme hunting agility, great speed and highly-attuned hearing.
Game immersed — thunderous 60mm drivers
The Strix Pro gaming headset is engineered with powerful 60mm neodymium-magnet drivers that deliver unrivalled punch and audio immersion that is utterly convincing. Gamers are treated to an audio experience that allows them to hear every gunshot and know enemies are nearby from their footsteps alone. Strix Pro also offers a superb listening experience for any kind of audio, adapting to faithfully reproduce roomy stadium rock and crisp, clear spoken-word audio. The thunderous bass produced by Strix Pro’s large drivers brings movie soundtracks to life.
Game with enhanced clarity — greater than 90% environmental-noise cancellation
Strix Pro is supplied with a USB-powered control box that includes a built-in microphone (mic) to enable highly-effective environmental-noise-cancellation (ENC) technology. Strix Pro’s ENC technology actively detects and effectively counters more than 90% of environmental noise.[1] In this mode, gamers are assured that teammates won’t be distracted in chat by noises occurring nearby, such as the tapping of mechanical keyboards.
Game across devices — compatibility with PCs, Macs, PlayStation 4 and smart devices
Strix Pro is an exceptionally versatile gaming headset that works with most popular devices and it is engineered for convenience and flexibility. The USB control box is accompanied by a 1.5m extension lead with separate headphone and mic plugs, for great compatibility with PC and Mac. The unique five-pole connector eliminates crosstalk for audio, giving communication quality that surpasses many other headsets. Strix Pro is also perfect for smartphones, tablets and PlayStation 4, with a combined audio/mic supplied for instant compatibility. ASUS research shows that a 1.2m cable is the perfect length for mobile or PlayStation 4 controller use, so Strix Pro is equipped with precisely this span. The connecting cable is manufactured with a braided-fiber sheath for added style, comfort and superb durability.
Game everywhere — travel-friendly foldable design, low weight and great comfort
Strix Pro’s full-size hexagonal ear cushions provide a snug fit, great comfort and easy customization — the cushions are user-replaceable. The headset also benefits from a clever foldable design that allows the ear cups to lay flat, making it ideal for packing and bringing to a LAN party or tournament, while the detachable microphone boom is perfect for easy removal, travel and storage. Weighing just 320g, Strix Pro is also highly portable and supremely comfortable to wear.
