ASUS Republic of Gamers (ROG) today announced G701VI, a slim gaming laptop with overclockable NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 graphics strong enough to power virtual-reality (VR) games. ROG G701VI has a wide-viewing-angle display that features NVIDIA G-SYNC technology and a 120 Hz refresh rate for fast gaming visuals. It also has an anti-ghosting keyboard with 30-key rollover technology.

Powered and designed for gaming, the ROG G701VI is powered by an unlocked Intel Core i7 ('Skylake') processor to give gamers desktop-grade gaming performance. It also features up to 64GB of 2400MHz DDR4 memory, which delivers up 20 percent more performance and 30 percent more energy efficiency over 1600MHz DDR3 RAM.

In addition, a built-in ESS DAC and amplifier provide more detailed in-game audio, strong bass and less distortion.

ROG G701VI has a thin 32.5mm profile and sports the new ROG Bio-Armor design and the new ROG Armor Titanium and Plasma Copper color scheme.
