Asus, one of the world?s largest computer sellers, has launched a Republic of Gamers (ROG) Gaming Experience Zone at its concept store at Cyberzone SM Lanang in Davao City, the first of its kind in the Philippines.
The launch and the Asus ROG brand will help the company take an active part in the global gaming community, the company said in a statement.
“It will also develop the industry by sponsoring popular events such as QuakeCon, Dreamhack, BlizzCon and locally, Davao CyberExpo and Pinoy Gaming Festival,” the company added, saying these moves are part of helping “innovate technology and…put on a greater emphasis on PC gaming.”
The development of the ROG is based not just on the technology itself, but also on the needs and wants of its end-users, the company said.
With this in mind, Asus’s research and development engineers have set out to design an ultimate motherboard for notebooks; one with features never before seen by the world.
As a result, it has launched the New Asus Republic of Gamers (ROG) G550JK Gaming Notebook, which is now available in the Philippines.
The new G550JK is ROG’s latest 15.6 inch gaming notebook, featuring a slim, aluminum design and ROG-gamer looks. Featuring a full HD IPS display, with wide 178-degree viewing angles and anti-glare coating for comfort during long gaming sessions, while Asus’ Color Gamut Management gives accurate and lifelike colors, so it’s ideal for professional or prosumer applications too.
Equipped with Intel 4th-gen Core i7 processors NVIDIA GeForce GTX800 Series with TurboMaster Technology with a built-in GPU software that lets users tweak the GPU and gives you long-term stable five-percent overclocking experience.
Sound is provided by Asus SonicMaster Premium, incorporating ICEpower — a Bang and Olufsen technology ? the external SonicMaster subwoofer and ROG AudioWizard software. Together the trio gives an aural experience that mixes booming bass with tuned speakers inside the G550JK.
Like a hybrid car seamlessly transitions from gas to electric, NVIDIA Optimus technology automatically optimizes computing experience to give users longer battery life and good visuals without having to manually change settings. It is also equipped with the GeForce GTX graphics exclusive TXAA, antialiasing technology brings movie quality to games with higher in-game detail for sharp image quality.
The sleek and muscular low-profile aluminum lines of G550JK are enhanced by the signature ROG color scheme of matte black with fine red diamond-cut detailing. The subtle illuminated ROG logo on the lid adds a touch of exclusivity.
Just as cool is the red backlight on the seamless one-piece chiclet keyboard, making it easy on the eyes when gaming in darkened environments. Portability is maximized with just 27mm at the thickest point. With bundle gifts which include gaming mouse, backpack and external subwoofer, the G550JK can go anywhere.
