The Asus ROG Strix Scar 16 launched alongside its larger 18-inch sibling this year, boosting the brand’s top-shelf gaming laptop with new Intel 13th generation CPUs and Nvidia GeForce RTX 40-Series graphics. That makes this one of the most powerful gaming laptops on the market right now, and once you get your head around that fact, the $2,899.99 price for an RTX 4080 configuration certainly doesn’t look so bad. Yes, this is an investment piece, but if you’re looking for a high end rig to see you through for years to come, it’s a solid contender for best gaming laptop status.
