Gaming laptops are getting immensely powerful with each passing day and the ROG Strix Scar 3 is an immensely capable machine that can fuel your fantasies in the virtual worlds. Being a ROG series laptop, there is no surprise about what this laptop can do with its sheer computing power. However, what impressed me more is the design. Asus has finally gone for a design that makes its gaming laptop look elegant and aggressive at the same time. Kudos to the design inputs from the BMW Designworks for making a conventional gaming laptop so appealing. It won't be an exaggeration to say that this is one of the most exciting gaming laptops you can buy today.

In the third generation of the ROG Strix Scar, Asus again bets on a lot of RGB illumination. However, what is under the hood is much more important. We have already tested a similar model based on an Intel Core i9, and now we are looking at the slightly more affordable ROG Strix Scar with the Core i7. Find out in this review whether this is the more sensible alternative.
