Power up with ASUS

ASUS, recognised for award-winning innovation and style, has dropped five new products onto the market aimed at a wide range of consumers. The new products cater to the dreamers, creators, gamers and hustlers after premium machines that deliver exceptional performance, while offering a unique sense of self-expression.

“With this launch, we moved away from our normal practice of individual product drops. ASUS creates exceptional machines that are diligently designed with specific users in mind. They are a literal extension of the user. Republic of Gamers is the global leader in performance gaming and that carries through with the new Zephyrus and Strix, but our new TUF Gaming model, the A15, brings that elite level performance to those in the entry or casual gaming segment, but also provides an affordable high performance option to STEM students. The StudioBook is a workstation that is purpose built, from the ground up, for professional designers, animators or architects. And finally, our VivoBook S is one of the sleekest, most stylish and efficient everyday laptops on the market, geared for young professionals who own the hustle. ASUS is dedicated to the 'Search for Incredible' and we show that we do this through starting with people, understanding what they need and then delivering that through an exceptional, personalised product experience. Whether you are a content creator, gamer or hustler, there is something just for you with ASUS,” said Juan Mouton, Country Marketing Manager, ASUS.

All Power Up launch products will be available at www.evetech.co.za.

ROG Scar Strix III (G732): The Competitor

Speed and agility are crucial stats in the world of esports, where razor-thin margins make the difference between victory and defeat. In a massive melee, you need a gaming machine that can keep up with the action. Staying competitive at the highest levels demands a high-refresh display and power-packed GPU that can deliver the fluid frame rates required to catch every moment.

The flagship ROG Strix SCAR 17 represents the pinnacle of professional esports. Its blisteringly fast 300Hz gaming panel surpasses the current tournament standard, while its larger chassis and cooling module can run up to the new GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER GPU at a full 150W. This config pumps out enough frames to saturate the expansive 17.3-inch display with the sublimely smooth gameplay required for competitive play.

Potent 10th Gen Intel processors up to a Core i9 deftly handle heavy duty gaming and extend the SCAR 17’s versatility into the realms of streaming, content creation, coding, and beyond. Exotic liquid metal thermal compound coats the CPU to boost cooling performance, and it’s part of a larger Intelligent Cooling system that blends extra ventilation, self-cleaning fans, and automatic optimisation to give you the best experience no matter the task.

Accelerate load times across a massive collection with an up to 1TB NVMe PCIe SSD and space for a second SSD.

Despite shrinking the proportions, the TUF Gaming laptops add a bigger 90Wh battery option so users don’t have to worry about longevity when classes, work, or life take them away from a power outlet. The combination of efficient AMD and NVIDIA hardware inside the TUF Gaming A15 and A17 deliver up to 8.7 hours of web browsing and 12.3 hours of video playback, so users can stay productive and entertained for longer.
