Next-Gen Intel Hybrid Performance
The Intel Core i7-13700F features 8 Performance-cores and 8 Efficient-cores, delivering up to 5.2 GHz boost speeds. This hybrid design means you can run games at full throttle while keeping background apps like Discord or streaming software running smoothly in the background without impacting frame rates.
RTX 3070 Graphics for Smooth Gaming
NVIDIA’s GeForce RTX 3070 with 8GB GDDR6 memory provides excellent 1080p and 1440p gaming performance. With dedicated RT cores for ray tracing and Tensor cores for AI-enhanced features like DLSS, you get realistic lighting and higher frame rates in supported titles without sacrificing visual quality.
High-Speed Storage and Expandability
The 1TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD ensures near-instant game loading and rapid system responsiveness. With four DIMM slots supporting up to 64GB DDR4 memory, you can easily upgrade later if your library or multitasking needs grow. The chassis also accommodates additional drives for expanded storage.
Advanced Cooling and Airflow Design
The mesh front panel maximises airflow to critical components, while the option for liquid or air cooling keeps thermals under control during intense sessions. This design maintains quiet operation even when the system is under heavy load, preventing thermal throttling that could impact performance.
Dynamic RGB Lighting and Aura Sync
ASUS Aura Sync lets you customise the RGB lighting across the front panel and compatible peripherals through Armoury Crate software. Create coordinated lighting effects that match your gaming setup, or choose subtle static colours that complement the Strix’s stealthy grey and black design.
Comprehensive Connectivity Options
With dual HDMI 2.0 ports, DisplayPort 1.4, multiple USB 3.2 Gen 2 and Gen 1 ports, and 7.1 channel audio support, connecting all your gaming peripherals is straightforward. The front panel includes USB-C for quick access to modern devices, while rear I/O handles everything from VR headsets to high-speed storage.
