ASUS Republic of Gamers has officially taken the wraps off of their new Strix SCAR II GL704 gaming notebook. While the notebook is similar to the recently locally released 15-inch SCAR II that we reviewed a few weeks ago, the Strix SCAR II GL704 stuffs an even bigger 17.3-inch display into a chassis that’s less than 400mm wide.

This particular feat is achieved thanks to the use of ultra-thin side and top bezels on the 17.3-inch display. The panel is made specifically for gaming, and sports a 3ms response time, complete sRGB coverage and a 144Hz refresh rate.

The notebook also sports the same kevlar and camouflage-textured design as its smaller brother, as well as Aura Sync RGB lighting, HyperCool Pro cooling system, Armoury Crate software as well as a keyboard made for gaming.

The notebook can be had with Intel processors up to Core i7-8750H — and an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 GPU with 6GB of video RAM. Rounding up the specs is up to 16GB of DDR4 2666MHz RAM, a 256GB PCIE NVME m.2 SSD and a 1TB hybrid HDD.

There is no local pricing as of yet for the GL704.
