REDEFINE HOW YOU PLAY
Laptops limit cooling and lock you into a fixed position that's needlessly rigid for desktop replacements, so we've reimagined the form factor to raise your game. ROG Mothership is a portable Windows 10 Pro powerhouse with an innovative standing design that enhances cooling for its factory overclocked GeForce RTX™ 2080 GPU and 9th Gen Intel® Core™ i9 eight-core CPU. Choose between G-SYNC™ displays with a detailed 4K resolution or blazing 144Hz refresh rate, and use the detachable keyboard to adapt to how you play. SSD RAID storage and 2.5G Ethernet bring ultra-fast performance to every part of this revolutionary gaming machine.
DESIGN
RETHINK THE FORM FACTOR
Each aluminum unibody is milled to perfection with a precise CNC machining process. The chassis stands tall to improve airflow and cooling, enabling a slimmer and more portable design. It leans back on a stepless hinge to suit any setting and separates from the keyboard for additional versatility. Detach and reposition the keyboard for your ideal gaming stance, or replace it with your favorite desktop peripherals. ROG Mothership can deploy on the road or power a full battlestation at home.

UNIBODY
Machined metal
jacket
CNC machines carve blocks of solid aluminum to create the main pieces for the chassis and keyboard. The painstaking process takes 114 tooling stages and nearly 20 hours to shape every little detail, then each piece is brushed and anodized to add a premium finish. This produces an exquisite body that's stylish enough to turn heads and strong enough to withstand the knocks and bumps of life on the road.
Stand up or lean
back
The kickstand pops out
automatically when ROG Mothership is placed on a
desk. It props up the display at a conventional
angle or tilts back at up to 127°, so you can
sit in a normal position or hover over the
battlefield. The stepless hinge rotates
smoothly, requiring only the push of a finger to
go from standing tall to fully reclined. Choose
the best position for the game and situation.
Aura Sync from the inside out
RGB LEDs glow from behind slits cut into the case, complementing per-key lighting embedded in the keyboard. You can customize colors and effects to add a personal touch to the striking aesthetic. Aura Sync matches the lighting with compatible peripherals like ROG keyboards, mice, and headsets to synchronize illumination across your rig, elevating the look of your entire setup.
THERMAL
STAND TALL TO BREATHE DEEPER
Laptops have limited airflow because most intake is from vents under the chassis, where there's little room to breathe, but ROG Mothership's unique design inhales cool air freely from the back. Standing tall lowers temperatures by up to 14°C*, and liquid metal takes CPU cooling to the next level. Seamless switching between Scenario Profiles optimizes performance and acoustics for the task at hand.

Exotic Thermal Compound
Liquid metal compound from Thermal Grizzly reduces CPU temperatures by up to 13°C* compared to standard thermal paste. The right amount must be applied meticulously for the best results, so we commissioned custom equipment that automates the process with mechanical precision. The block that sits on the CPU also has a special internal fence that prevents liquid medal from leaking out over time.
*Unless otherwise stated, figures are based on theoretical performance. Actual figures may vary in real-world situations.
Eight pipes for full coverage
Transferring heat away from vital parts helps maintain performance and stability, especially beyond stock speeds, so ROG Mothership snakes heatpipes across its CPU, GPU, and the VRM supplying their power. Heat spreaders add the VRAM and additional power components to the network, while sintered walls inside each pipe accelerate thermal transfer and help keep the power components under 80 °C.
More ultra-thin heatsink fins
Thermals are dissipated by four heatsinks lining the top corners of the chassis. Each one is filled with ultra-thin copper fins that measure just 0.1mm, allowing higher density and lower air resistance than typical fins that are twice as thick. With 375 fins and 198,276mm2 of total surface area, the cooling system can handle the heat output of high-end hardware at overclocked speeds.
Self-cleaning cooling system
To keeping the heatsinks free of dust and debris that can compromise cooling performance over time, ROG Mothership ejects particles through special anti-dust tunnels in its fans. This self-cleaning system helps preserve the cooling efficiency required to sustain high clocks and peak performance, and it improves long-term stability and reliability to keep your system running smoothly for longer.
High‑performance 12V fans
ROG Mothership's dual fans run on 12V power that lets them spin faster and generate more airflow than typical 5V fans. They draw air in directly from the back of the chassis, free from the restricted airspace endured by traditional laptops that sit flat. Exhaust is pumped through four outlets at the top corners of the chassis, keeping warm air from blowing onto your mousing hand.
The right mode for the moment
Expertly tuned system profiles let you quickly adapt to different scenarios using a convenient keyboard shortcut. With the highest fan speed and frequencies, Turbo mode is the best for maximum performance. Balanced mode optimizes performance and cooling to lower noise levels under 40 dB for gaming, while Silent mode goes further to take acoustics below 35 dB for lighter workloads like watching movies.1
PERFORMANCE
TAKE THE LATEST HARDWARE
TO THE NEXT LEVEL
ROG Mothership raises the bar with a factory overclocked GPU and CPU that are unlocked for further tuning. The GeForce RTX™ 2080 boosts up to 1880MHz at 200W, and its 8GB of GDDR6 VRAM is clocked at 7200MHz, setting a new standard for laptop gaming and VR performance, while the 9th Gen Intel® Core™ i9 CPU unleashes eight cores and 16 threads on heavy workloads.* They're paired with up to three NVMe SSDs in RAID 0, with two drives connected to the CPU to reach an insane 8700MB/s.

The cutting-edge GPU is paired with 8GB of GDDR6 VRAM and capable of powering advanced lighting, shadow, and reflection effects that make graphics more lifelike than ever before.
Three-drive SSD RAID
HyperDrive Extreme combines up to three PCIe 3.0 x4 SSDs in a RAID 0 array that achieves high capacity with unmatched performance. The secret is connecting two drives directly to the CPU, which sidesteps the DMI link to the chipset and enables top speeds up to a staggering 8700MB/s. All three M.2 NVMe drives are covered by a heat spreader that improves cooling for sustained workloads.
* Actual performance may vary according to system configuration.
* To reach speeds of up to 8700MB/s, a Samsung PM981 and two Intel 760p SSDs (for the CPU-attached slots) are required for a RAID 0 setup comprising of three NVMe PCIe 3.0 x4 SSDs.
