Yesterday we introduced the ROG SCAR 8, today we will talk about its enlarged version, SCAR 8 Plus, also upgraded to the 14th generation Core, optional RTX 4060 or 4070 independent display, the initial price is 12499 yuan and 13999 yuan respectively, which is 1000 yuan more expensive than the same gun God 8.
The ROG SCAR 8 Plus also continues the mold of the previous generation SCAR 7 Plus, and in terms of exterior design, it belongs to the proportional enlarged version of the SCAR 8, with a triangular bevel design on the A side, ROG Logo breathing lights, eclipse gray with magic green sports trend color scheme, and incorporating graffiti and pixel art elements, and superimposed U-shaped chassis lights, which is very cool.
Thanks to the wide body, the SCAR 8 Plus has added a numeric keypad, which is also a single-key adjustable RGB shadow blade keyboard for a better typing experience.
The interface design layout of the SCAR 8 Plus is the same as that of the SCAR 8, with 2 USB-A3.2 Gen2, Thunderbolt 4, full-featured USB-C 3.2 Gen2, HDMI 2.1, R45, audio interface, and power jack.
The screen of this product reaches 18 inches, the vision is shocking, with 2560×1600 pixel resolution, 100% DCI-P3 wide color gamut, 240Hz refresh rate, 500nits high brightness, 3ms response time, support Dolby Vision and color gamut switching.
The SCAR 8 Plus's processor has also been upgraded to 14th Gen Core, and the specific model was lifted on the evening of January 9th, at least at the 5.8GHz i9-14900HX or higher.
The new product comes standard with 16GB DDR5-5600 memory, 1TB PCIe 4.0 SSD, optional RTX 4060 or 4070 independent graphics card, and dual-baking power consumption of 195W and 210W respectively.
The SCAR 8 Plus's cooling module is still Glacier Architecture 3.0, consisting of three dust-proof fans + CPU liquid metal thermal conductivity + seven heat pipes.
Overall, SCAR 8 Plus is a gaming laptop with a more stunning vision, combining good looks, cool lighting, an emperor-grade processor, and near-extreme power consumption. It's just that, its price is more expensive than the gun god 8000 yuan, in exchange for a larger field of vision, and at the same time it has lost its portable attributes, so it is only suitable for players who do not often go out with their books. If you want to completely replace the desktop, the performance of the Gun God 8 Plus may still be a little weak, and you need to upgrade the super competitive version of the RTX 4080 or 4090, but the price of the latter is 20,000 yuan, and the entry threshold is still too high.
