Design.
DEFYING CONVENTION: The stealthy ninjas are the inspiration for ROG Strix GL12CX, which sports an all-black chassis with sharp angles and cuts that resemble katana blows on armor. Some of those slashes function as intake or exhaust vents, while others have Aura Sync LEDs for countless customization options and compatibility with peripherals.
Overlocked For Formidable Firepower.
The ROG Strix GL12CX is powered by the absolute finest CPUs. It has a brand-new 9th Generation Intel Core i9-9900K CPU that has been factory overclocked to a maximum speed of 5.1GHz for a significant performance gain. Although the Strix GL12CX is excellent for gaming, it is also capable of doing a lot more: multitasking, playing, streaming, and recording your gaming experiences, all with lots of additional performance.
Graphics.
UNRIVALEDÂ GRAPHICS PERFORMANCE: In order to provide incredibly smooth 4K UHD gaming visuals and VR experiences, ROG Strix GL12CX is equipped with the most cutting-edge gaming GPU to date, with up to NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Ti graphics. Real-time ray tracing effects and DLSS is also supported by the new GeForce RTX 20-series graphics cards for increased realism. NVIDIA G-SYNCTM also eliminates visual tearing and removes input latency as well as apparent stuttering.
Game Test.
GEARED FORÂ THE LATEST GAMES: Hours of playtesting guarantee that ROG Strix GL12CX performs the most recent and well-liked games without a hitch. When playing games like Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 and Rise of the Tomb RaiderTM at its maximum graphic settings, this gaming desktop pushes the limits.
Storage.
INNOVATIVE DIMM.2 MODULE FOR SSDS: The ROG-exclusive DIMM.2 module for two M.2 SSDs, which are cooled by a specialized heatsink, and the newest Intel Z390 chipset are what make up the ROG Strix GL12CX motherboard. With the Strix GL12CX, you have even more storage options. You may combine the two NVMe drives in a quick RAID configuration or utilize one SSD as your system drive and one stick of Intel OptaneTM memory to speed up your HDD. ROG Strix GL12CX NVMe PCI Express technology offers blazing-fast transfer rates to shorten app and game load times. Compared to typical SATA 3 SSDs and HDDs, the M.2 PCIe 3.0 x4 SSD in the Strix GL12CX is substantially quicker.
Lighting.
YOUR MACHINE, YOUR STYLE: You may create your own RGB combinations using customizable Aura Sync lighting, which offers more than 16 million colors and a number of preset effects, or you can utilize them in compatible games to respond to events and surroundings in-game. Even some of the components have internal lighting, which is all visible via the side panel’s customizable transparency. Using Aura Sync-enabled keyboards, mice, headsets, and other peripherals, you can even synchronize effects and colors to give your gaming setup a uniform appearance.
HOT-SWAP SSD TRAY.
ENGINEERED FOR ESPORTS: Fans and participants alike are kept on the edge of their seats by the pace and intensity of the top-level esports competitions. Players must store their customized settings on a hot-swap SSD before entering the stage in esports competitions like Rift Rivals, ESL One, and ROG Masters. Esports has unquestionably ingrained in the ROG Strix GL12CX thanks to its hot-swap 2.5-inch SSD tray!
UPGRADABILITY.
ARMED AND READY: Maintain a modern arsenal by keeping up with the arms race and using a design that is easy to update. The ROG Strix GL12CX offers plenty of capacity for growth: a clever interior structure provides you room for extra fans and storage drives, with good cable management to keep everything tidy and arranged. When you need extra storage, all you have to do is insert a drive into the hot-swap 2.5-inch SSD tray without even opening the case.
Thermal Design.
KEEP IT COOL UNDER PRESSURE: For long sessions of gaming, the ROG Strix GL12CX offers reliable cooling. Two separate, specialized air chambers are part of its sophisticated cooling system, which helps with heat dispersion. The cutting-edge interwoven HyperStream architecture found in the Strix GL12CX enables optimal heat dissipation and airflow into the chassis. Additionally, the three fans on the top and bottom of the chassis guarantee continuous airflow throughout the system to keep the power supply and storage devices cool during intense combat.
Exclusive Software.
UNIFIED SYSTEM TUNNING AND PERSONALIZATION: With only one application, ROG Armoury Crate gives you access to all crucial systems and lighting control. You may configure up to four game profiles that will automatically make changes when you start your favorite games, and you can simply alter the settings for both. The ROG Strix GL12CX CPU may even be manually cranked up beyond the factory overclocked speeds thanks to Armoury Crate. These choices are only the beginning of a tool that will have far more possibilities.
Audio.
PREMIUM AUDIO EXPERIENCE: The audio output of the ROG Strix GL12CX is particularly warm and natural thanks to the use of premium components. Clear and immersive sound is produced by the exclusive ROG Sonic Studio software, which also offers a number of increased features, such as virtual surround sound for stereo headphones and improvements to internet calls, audio streaming, and recording quality.
EXTENSIVE CONNECTIVITY.
HASSLE-FREE COMPATIBILITY AND FASTER DATA TRANSFERS: There are more than enough connectors for your gamepad, headphones, microphone, and camera on the ROG Strix GL12CX to guarantee that you’re always game-ready.
