These are the world’s first laptops featuring AMD’s latest Radeon™ RX 6800M GPU. The new graphics processor is paired with a powerful Ryzen™ 9 5900HX CPU to deliver a phenomenal gaming experience for everything from elite esports to everyday entertainment. AMD-exclusive SmartShift and Smart Access Memory technologies help the CPU and GPU work more intelligently together to maximize performance and efficiency. You can tailor the visuals with a choice between a competition-ready 300Hz/3ms panel or gorgeous WQHD 165Hz/3ms display, both of which complete the AMD synergy with FreeSync Premium technology that makes graphics ultrasmooth.

ROG Intelligent Cooling pushes performance to the next level, utilizing cutting-edge techniques to give gamers the sustained power needed to play longer and multitask more. The Advantage Edition uniquely features liquid metal thermal compound on not only the CPU, but also the GPU. To further accelerate heat dissipation, we developed a highly efficient vapor chamber that covers critical components, including the muscular 16-phase VRM.

Wrapped in a sporty chassis inspired by athletic gear, the Strix Advantage Edition is designed to impress in every gaming arena. The unique aesthetic includes subtle references to the AMD DNA, along with Customizable Armor Caps and Aura Sync lighting that let you fully personalize the looks.

See more frames per second in richer detail with the all-new Radeon™ RX 6800M GPU. The Strix G15 and G17 Advantage Edition are the first gaming laptops featuring the flagship from the Radeon RX 6000 Series. These new graphics processors bring next-generation performance and power efficiency to gaming laptops. They’re built on an AMD RDNA™ 2 architecture that combines ray tracing, computational, and traditional effects to enable more lifelike visuals and deepen immersion. The Radeon RX 6800M has ample power for silky graphics in a wide variety of games. Thanks to exclusive ROG cooling upgrades and clever AMD SmartShift technology, the Strix can sustain high GPU clock speeds.

AMD-exclusive SmartShift and Smart Access Memory technologies provide a distinct advantage by allowing the CPU and GPU to work more closely together. SmartShift amps up performance on the fly by dynamically shifting power between the CPU and GPU depending on the demands of the workload. Whether you’re pushing high FPS in the latest games, rendering complex 3D objects, or editing cinematic videos, it constantly optimizes to ensure power is available where it’s needed the most. The hardware boosting interface and machine learning algorithms can improve performance by up to 15%.

Smart Access Memory pumps up performance in many gaming scenarios by improving data transfer between the GPU and CPU. Conventional systems create a bottleneck by only giving the CPU to access a small fraction of graphics memory at once. Smart Access Memory removes this restriction to harness the full potential of PCI Express®, allowing the CPU to access all the GPU memory at once.

Support your multitasking habit with up to 32GB of high-performance DDR4-3200 RAM. Do more in the moment, fill your games library, and save your best plays on up to 1TB of superfast NVMe SSD storage that loads everything at warp speed. The Strix G also comes with an additional M.2 slot that makes it easy to upgrade your experience with terabytes of extra space.

Keep your cool in combat

ROG Intelligent Cooling brings out the best in the powerful Ryzen CPU and Radeon GPU, lifting peak performance while lowering noise levels. In addition to enabling high clock speeds right out of the box, our sophisticated design has enough thermal headroom to go beyond. Turbo mode increases the GPU wattage above stock, and you can push even more power through the processors using the Manual mode in Armoury Crate.

The cooling upgrades start with exotic liquid metal thermal compound that coats both processors, improving heat transfer and lowering temperatures by as much as 14°C. The right amount must be applied meticulously for the best results, so we developed a patented process that works at scale. For 2021, we overcame the unique challenge of applying liquid metal to AMD processors. They feature conductive components around the die, so we add an insulating compound to protect the CPU and GPU package. The Strix G15 and G17 Advantage Edition are the first mass-produced laptops with liquid metal on both processors.

Thermal efficiency is further improved by a massive vapor chamber that covers the CPU, GPU, VRAM, and voltage regulation circuitry. Artfully laser-engraved to highlight the hardware underneath, this cooling feature was designed specifically for the Advantage Edition. Compared to conventional heat pipes that only transfer thermal energy along their axis, vapor chambers spread it across their entire area, which improves dissipation in small spaces. The comprehensive coverage and huge footprint maximize redistribution to the heatsinks, raising the thermal headroom by 25W compared to the standard Strix thermal module. 

scenario-2

The Strix Advantage Edition also adopts the latest Intelligent Cooling features found on other 2021 ROG gaming laptops. Like the rest of the Strix series, it radiates heat from four heatsinks and fan outlets in the flanks. Two Arc Flow fans improve airflow by up to 17% for the CPU and 20% for the GPU with no increase in noise. Each fan spins 84 blades capped by special tips that follow an aerodynamic wave pattern that reduces turbulence. The blades each taper down to just 0.1mm at the base to move more air, and they’re made of a liquid-crystal polymer strong enough to maintain its structure at high speeds.

To further amplify airflow, we improved our self-cleaning cooling system. Dust accumulation on the heatsinks and fans slowly compromises cooling over time, so Strix laptops channel particles out of the chassis to ensure reliable long-term performance. Shorter anti-dust tunnels in the latest models clear the way for 15% more airflow while still preventing harmful buildup.

Advanced cooling technology extends to the keyboard, which takes player comfort into careful account. Many laptops can become uncomfortably warm to the touch during prolonged play, so we created a CoolZone design that strategically places vents under the keyboard to reduce surface temperatures. In the Advantage Edition, it’s paired with a new IR sensor that monitors those temperatures in real time, allowing the system to make adjustments to keep the keys below 40°C.

Stunning gameplay

To make team communication clearer, Two-Way AI Noise Cancelation eliminates up to 95% of background noise from both input and output audio. Developed using a deep neural network for super-high accuracy, this algorithm can be applied to any mic and configured on a per-app basis, so you can target chat software while preserving in-game sound. The two-way filtering is especially useful, processing output audio to help you hear teammates better. And because noise canceling runs on the CPU, the GPU is free to hit higher FPS.

Game in style anywhere

The Strix Advantage Editions empower gamers to take on new challenges while staying compact, mobile, and stylish. The laptops pack serious gaming power into portable chassis with footprints up to 7% smaller than the previous generation. Larger 90Wh batteries enable long life on the road with up to 11.4 hours of video playback, while fast charging gets you back to 50% in just 33 minutes. Support for Type-C charging adds the flexibility to run everyday activities like web browsing and streaming videos off a smaller USB-C adapter up to 100W. You can also charge from USB power packs to break free from wall sockets.
