ASUS announces ROG STRIX G15 and G17 Advantage Edition laptops with AMD Radeon 6800M graphics

As part of the Computex 2021 announcements, ASUS has announced the ROG Strix G15 and G17 Advantage Edition gaming laptops featuring the all new Radeon RX6800M GPUs. 

The ROG STRIX G15 and G17 gaming laptops are both powered by the AMD Ryzen 9 5900HX mobile CPU with 32GB DDR4 RAM and up to 1TB PCIe SSD for storage and feature either a 15.6” (G15) or 17.3” (G17) IPS display in either FullHD (300Hz/3ms) or WQHD (165Hz/3ms) resolution, both with support for FreeSync Premium.

But the big news is the Radeon 6800M Graphics. The newly announced Radeon RX 6800M graphics is a powerful option, with AMD promising high-performance gaming that can support 1440p/120 FPS gaming. The new cards are based on RDNA 2 architecture which basically brings ray tracing, their Infinity Cache for reduced latency. 

The STRIX G15 and G17 are the first laptops carrying the ‘Advantage Edition’, a new program AMD has introduced with their partners to improve high-end laptop gaming. The lAMD Advantage Framework means laptops can playback 10+ hours of video playback, include screens of 300+ nits brightness with 144Hz refresh and of course, the laptops support a minimum 100fps gaming experience. 

The laptops both include a Backlit chiclet keyboard with 4 Zone RGB, and come with Dolby Atmos support and 2-way AI Noise Cancellation. 

ASUS hasn’t confirmed pricing and launch dates for the ROG STRIX G15 or G17, but we’ll let you know as soon as they’ve got something to announce.
