Frames Win Games
In gaming, there is one constant truth: having higher framerates is a competitive advantage. Not only will motion be crisper, but higher FPS also lowers input delay between your button press and the action on screen, meaning you have a chance to fire before your opponent even knows you’re there. NVIDIA®Advanced Optimus leverages the power of a MUX switch to improve framerates and lower latency on all 2023 Strix machines.
Buttery Smooth Motion
Nothing breaks in-game immersion like stuttering and screen tearing. Displays have a fixed refresh rate, but the framerate from your GPU can fluctuate depending on the complexity of a scene. With NVIDIA®G-SYNC®, the display’s refresh rate automatically synchronizes with the GPU in real time for smooth, tear-free motion. Strix machines feature displays with refresh rates up to 240Hz, and can push framerates even higher when paired with an external monitor, and all support tear-free NVIDIA®G-SYNC®.
More Real Than Real
Ray tracing is the ultimate in video game graphics. With NVIDIA®GeForce RTX™ graphics, and their dedicated Ray Tracing Cores, games can now accurately simulate how light behaves in the real world. Reflections, shadows, and lights of all kinds instantly look more realistic, in ways you might not have even realized you were missing. For peak immersion, look for an ROG Nebula Display together with a GeForce RTX™ Laptop GPU and sink deeper into your games. All 2023 ROG Strix machines come equipped with the latest NVIDIA GeForce 40 Series GPUs, unlocking the possibilities of real-time ray tracing for more gamers than ever before.
Modern Day Magic
Real-time ray tracing has always had a steep performance cost that kept it out of the mainstream. The latest ROG Strix laptops feature graphics cards with DLSS 3, a further refinement to DLSS technology that introduces frame generation for incredible smoothness and high framerates, even at 4K resolution, with a fraction of the performance hit. Prepare to enjoy the most lifelike visuals with no performance penalty on an ROG Strix machine equipped with a Nebula Display or an external monitor and a DLSS 3-capable GPU.
