Design
FORWARD-THINKING FUNCTIONAL DESIGN
Efficiency and innovation unite in the sleek, gunmetal grey ROG Strix SCAR III. Its strategic design is inspired by our collaboration with BMW Designworks Group, and carves out a cooling advantage with its 3D Flow Zone. The subtle, carbon-patterned interior is accented by Aura Sync lighting that extends across the new wraparound light bar, keyboard, and ROG logo. Whether you’re gearing up for competition or hopping into quickplay, this metal-capped machine is fine-tuned and ready for action.
INSPIRED LINES
The striking design is inspired by our collaboration with BMW Designworks Group to imagine the future of gaming laptops. Raised ridges riff off the swooping gills of the Face Off concept, adding a sculpted surface that draws your eye to the extra venting above the rear exhaust. Docking an ROG Keystone triggers a transformation that shapes the look and feel of the system with a distinctly physical interaction, evoking a deeper connection that parallels another key theme explored by the project.
LIGHTEN YOUR MOOD
Game in the glow of the all-new expanded light bar. Diffused RGB LEDs wrap around the rim of the chassis, illuminating the front and side edges with customizable colors and effects. Personalize illumination across your entire suite of compatible Aura Sync peripherals, and set the right mood for focusing your competitive mindset.
SLIM BEZELS FOR BIG IMMERSION
Super-narrow bezels frame the edges of the display, allowing us to fit a larger screen into a more compact footprint than typical laptops in this class. The bezels practically disappear, immersing you fully in the action without distraction. With a screen-to-body ratio of up to 81.5%, you get an expansive view of games, streams, movies, and more.
STRONG SCISSOR-DOOR HINGES
Inspired by gullwing doors, the silky scissor-door hinges effortlessly emerge when the lid is lifted and discreetly disappear back into the chassis when shut. This hidden hinge design keeps a low profile and opens up additional space for venting and cooling around the heatsinks at the back. The concealed hinges are also better protected from cracks that can affect exposed alternatives.
EASY-OPEN CHASSIS
The Strix SCAR III simplifies upgrades by making the memory slots and storage bays readily accessible. Standard screws secure the bottom of the chassis; they're well within reach and can be removed without special tools. The hooks holding the edges together are smaller and stronger than before, with a looser fit that makes it easier to separate the bottom panel and get under the hood.
KEYSTONE
INTRODUCING THE KEYSTONE
Keystones offer a versatile new way to personalize your machine and protect your personal data. These physical, NFC-enabled keys fit neatly into the Strix SCAR III’s chassis, adding a subtle accent along the trim. When docked, they instantly transform your machine with different effects and game-specific profiles, or unlock access to a secret Shadow Drive for covert private storage. This is only the beginning of the Keystone’s potential. Glimpse the future today.
INVISIBLE SECURITY
Secret away private files in a virtual safe linked to your Keystone. Used like a real key, it reveals a hidden Shadow Drive within your computer. The encrypted storage space offers additional security for personal data, programs, and files you don’t want to fall into the wrong hands. Link the drive to multiple Keystones to share access or create backup keys of your own.
THE KEY TO CUSTOMIZATION
Save personalized configs in Armoury Crate, and link them to Keystones to access profiles on command. Docking a Keystone makes your carefully tuned settings and customizations available through the ROG utility, so it’s easy to add a personal touch for your favorite games. When you’re gaming away from home or sharing your laptop with friends, Keystones provide a physical link to profiles through Armoury Crate.
