Why is the STRIX G17 G713QR-HX094TS showing an 144hz screen when everyone else gets a 300hz in other countries? This may be a misprint since Asus’s website shows 300hz.
Hello! There are different variants of the STRIX G17 with varying refresh rates. Some have 300hz, others 165Hz. For the the G713QR-HX094TS variant that will be available here in PH, however, has 144Hz refresh rate. You can check the specs here on the product page for confirmation: https://rog.asus.com/ph/laptops/rog-strix/2021-rog-strix-g17-series/spec.
Hope this helps. 🙂
That isn’t really fair since the United States quit selling the 144hz. Will the 300hz be available in the Philippines because the competition now has 300hz? I am better to get the laptop in the United States then get it here in the Philippines if that is the case.
AFAIK, that variant won’t be available here on official channels, at least for now. And I doubt that would change. You can try your luck on the gray market. But if you really want to, feel free to order it from the US. 🙂
Thank you for all the info. I might just spend more money on the STRIX SCAR 17 G733QR-HG021TS with the 3070 RTX GPU since it comes with 30,000 php worth of freebies. That way I will get a better keyboard and display.
