ROG GT51CH

ROG GT51CH is no ordinary gaming machine. It is powered by the latest 7th Generation Intel® Core™ processor, and features up to NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 1080 2-way SLI graphics and overclockable memory. With all this firepower, the GT51CH delivers mind-blowing gaming experiences you won’t find anywhere else!

With a 7th Generation Intel Core i7-7700K processor, ROG GT51CH is armed for victory. ROG engineers handpicked Core i7-7700K processors and subjected them to a 40-hour testing and tuning process to achieve performance figures that are 14% faster than anything else on the market.

The flagship NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 graphics card is the most advanced gaming graphics card ever created. Powered by the new NVIDIA Pascal™ architecture, GeForce GTX 1080 has up to 3x the performance of previous-generation graphics cards, delivering innovative gaming technologies for breakthrough VR experiences and superior energy-efficiency.

NVIDIA VRWorks™ technology provides next-gen VR performance, the lowest latency, and plug-and-play compatibility with leading VR headsets. Meanwhile, NVIDIA G-SYNC™ gets rid of lag, minimizes perceived stutter, and eliminates visual tearing – providing smooth and fast gaming graphics, without affecting system performance!

ROG GT51CH supports up to NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 2-way SLI graphics to generate stunning 4K UHD gaming worlds. In product development tests, the GT51CH performed 60% better¹ than a GeForce GTX 980 SLI-equipped system. It was able to run Watch Dogs 2 at “Ultra" graphics settings in 4K UHD at frame rates averaging 67fps!

Discover next-gen VR performance, the lowest latency, and plug-and-play compatibility with leading VR headsets on the GT51 — all driven by NVIDIA VRWorks™ technologies. VR audio, physics and haptics let you hear and feel every moment.

So strap on your VR headset and let ROG GT51 and the latest NVIDIA VR technologies immerse you in expansive gaming worlds.

Next-generation innovations such as NVMe PCI Express® SSDs, super-fast DDR4 memory and USB 3.1 help speed things up. The latest NVMe PCIe RAID 0 SSD delivers data access speeds of up to 3.2Gbps — that’s 6x faster than SATA SSDs!

ROG GT51CH has USB 3.1 ports to facilitate quick and easy data transfers. In addition, the USB 3.1 Gen 2 port on its front panel features the reversible USB Type-C™ connector, so connecting devices is easy and there’s no chance of damaging the cable or port by plugging in a device the “wrong” way. The USB 3.1 Gen 2 port offers data transfer rates of up to 10Gbps and supports Quick Charge for faster device charging.

The Aegis III system performance monitoring app enhances gaming experiences by allowing you to track CPU/memory usage as well as download and upload status. It also allows you to control fan speeds and lighting effects, and automatically alerts you if system temperature or voltage thresholds are exceeded.

Turbo Gear triggers full-core overclocking to boost CPU speed to 4.8GHz, it also overclocks one of the GTX 1080 graphics cards² for a 15% performance boost. System memory can be overclocked, too, with Intel XMP technology providing a 17% jump in performance³.

XSplit Gamecaster lets you stream or record gameplay easily. An in-game overlay allows for easy streaming and recording, and allows you to make in-game annotations to highlight what’s happening onscreen. You can also interact with your audience while broadcasting on Twitch.

ROG GT51CH won the CES® Innovation and iF Design awards in 2016. Its aggressive, aerospace-inspired look features sharp, chiselled edges and smooth surfaces. These details combine to draw your eye toward its centerpiece – the turbine-like air intake on the front of the chassis. But its bold look isn’t just for show: The intake is fully functional and houses a Pulse Width Modulation fan that draws air into the cooling system.
A mesh window on the chassis side panel lets you admire the inner workings of the GT51CH, offering a view of the motherboard, internal LED effects and neatly routed internal cables.

ROG GT51CH features dynamic ASUS Aura lighting effects across its parallel light strips, iconic ROG logo and central air intake. ASUS Aura can be customized in up to 8 million different colors to suit the feel of the game you’re currently playing. There’s even a pre-set OC mode that automatically activates when you overclock the system.
For internal ASUS Aura lighting, ROG engineers doubled the number of LEDs on the motherboard from five to ten, to create even more intense effects. Similar to the chassis lights, the motherboard light settings can also be customized to match the feel of your game.

To cope with the cooling demands of such a high performance machine, ROG designers created a three-way cooling solution that caters to each heat-generating component. The Hydro Overclocking System cools the CPU to ensure rock-solid stability during overclocking, while a dedicated air channel helps cool the GPU. Additionally, the power supply unit, found in the bottom corner of the chassis, has its own isolated airflow design.
This multi-zone cooling system ensures efficient heat management and decreases system temperatures by up to 31%, even during marathon gaming sessions.

Sonic Studio offers a host of functions designed to provide high-end gaming audio and improved internet calls, audio streaming and recording quality. ASUS Perfect Voice technology provides upgraded noise cancellation for crystal-clear VoIP calls, while Casting Enhancer improves streaming and audio recording quality, reduces noise and stabilizes the overall volume of voice communications.
