ASUS Republic of Gamers Announces Sizzling Electro Punk Gaming Laptops and Peripherals

2020/04/02

Strix G gaming laptop and other ROG peripherals are refreshing in pink and black



TAIWAN, Taipei, April 2, 2020 ASUS Republic of Gamers (ROG) today announced a new series of Electro Punk special-edition gaming devices decked out in a bold black-and-pink color combination.
ROG has a long history of weaving Aura Sync into a huge ecosystem of devices to let gamers shine a light on their personalities through their gear. However, many gamers are looking for ways to express themselves without powering on their RGB lighting. That’s why the ROG color palette is expanding to include a new cyberpunk-inspired shade.

Punk-rocking pink

Creating a new color for any ROG device takes care. Selecting a shade, implementing it, and matching it across a variety of materials is complicated for just one device, much less an entire collection. Fortunately, ROG designers agreed early on to focus on cyberpunk-inspired pinks. After scrutinizing approximately 10 shades of robust roses and crisp corals in different lightings and environments, ROG designers settled on a high-energy hue with the hex color code #F7266B.
To make the colored highlights more impactful, classic black was selected as a backdrop. On a practical level, dark materials hold up well over time, which is crucial for heavily handled devices. Laptops are frequently pulled in and out of bags, mice can exhibit wear, and ear cups and bands on headphones endure constant use. Dark colors look crisp and clean, while adding the perfect contrast to brighter accents and RGB lighting.

A complete collection

The Electro Punk color combination is available across a full set of matching ROG devices that includes the ROG Strix G15 gaming laptop, ROG Strix Go 2.4 headset, ROG Strix Scope TKL keyboard, ROG Strix Impact II mouse, ROG Sheath mouse pad, and ROG Ranger BP1503 backpack. This collection of gaming gear has everything a player needs to compete and win in style, anywhere.

ROG Strix G15 Electro Punk gaming laptop

The 15-inch ROG Strix G15 focuses on gaming fundamentals to make gaming accessible to a wider audience. The Electro Punk edition puts a coral crown on a streamlined gaming machine. A sleek stripe around the chassis mirrors the outlined edge of the touchpad, while cybertext patterning adorns the deck. Brighter touches include highlighted WASD keys and an unmissable pink ROG logo across the lid.
Inside, up to the latest 10th Gen Intel® Core™ i7 CPU has 8 cores and 16 threads to speed through everyday work and play. Thanks to an exotic liquid metal thermal compound painted across the entire ROG 2020 lineup of laptops featuring 10th Gen Intel CPUs, these processors perform better with less noise. For solid frame rates in a variety of titles, Strix G is configurable with up to an NVIDIA® GeForce® RTX 2070 SUPER™ GPU. It’s combined with up to a 240 Hz gaming display that enables silky smooth graphics. The panel’s 3 ms grey-to-grey response time makes fast-paced movements crisp.
Strix G15’s versatility is rounded out with ultrafast WiFi 6 networking for lower latency and less lag on compatible networks, up to two NVMe PCIe® 3.0 SSDs running in RAID 0 for warp-speed load times, and a third upgradable SSD slot that lets users add terabytes of space. Strix gaming laptops all feature an easy-upgrade design that hugely simplifies memory and storage modifications.
