ASUS ROG just announced an entire lineup of products with black-and-pink color design. Welcome the Electro Punk Special-Edition devices.
ROG is looking for ways that gamers can express themselves outside RGB lighting, thus, the new cyberpunk shade. After scrutinizing various shades in various environments, the designers settled on a high-energy hue with black as a backdrop.
ROG Strix G15 Electro Punk gaming laptop
ROG Strix G15 is designed to make gaming available to a wider audience. This new Electro Punk Edition features a sleek stripe around the chassis that mirrors the outlined edge of the touchpad, combined with cyberpunk patterns, highlighted WASD keys and a pink ROG logo across the lid.
Under the hood is an Intel Core i7-10875H, up to 32GB of RAM, up to 2 PCIe 3.0 SSD’s in Raid 0 (plus a third upgradeable SSD slot) and a 66Whr battery. You get a Full HD screen with a 240Hz refresh rate and 3ms response time. For graphics, there’s an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060. The device is also equipped with Wi-Fi 6 networking.
ROG Strix Go 2.4 Electro Punk gaming headset
The newest addition to ROG’s lineup of gaming headsets is the Strix Go 2.4 Electro Punk – a USB-C 2.4GHz wireless headset that allows for stable connections for multi-platform on-the-go gaming, lag-free audio for PC, PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, and also smart devices.
Strix Go 2.4 charges fast and come with a USB-C to USB 2.0 adapter along with a 3.5mm connector. It’s got hot-pink details in and around the headband, ear pads, and ROG logo, while the rest stays bold black.
It features signal-diversion technology for a wide soundstage and full immersive game audio, while the boom mic is detachable and features industry-leading AI-assisted noise cancellation for clearer sound when chatting and gaming. Built-in buttons allow for fast access to volume and mic controls.
Strix Go 2.4 utilizes airtight chambers and 40mm ASUS Essence drivers to deliver rich sound.
ROG Strix Scope TKL Electro Punk gaming keyboard
The new Strix Scope TKL Electro Punk features Aura Sync lighting that shines under every key, through the ROG logo and even casts an RGB underglow from below.
This mechanical keyboard is specifically built for fast-paced multiplayer gaming, getting rid of the number pad for more space required for rapid mouse movements. The CTRL key has been enlarged, and Cherry MX switches allow gamers to punch in complex commands with confidence.
Thanks to its durable, aluminum-topped construction and compact size, Strix Scope TKL Electro Punk is easy to store in just about any backpack for travel to LANs, tournaments and other esports events.
ROG Strix Impact II Electro Punk gaming mouse
ROG Strix Impact II Electro Punk features programmable buttons, Aura-Sync-enabled RGB lighting integrated into the logo, scroll wheel, and front.
Designed with Pro Gamers in mind, its lightweight, 79g frame features a pivoted button mechanism for precision speed and a tactile feel. Its soft-rubber coated cord minimizes snags and drag.
A 6,200 dpi optical sensor ensures accuracy and responsiveness, while an on-the-fly DPI button can cycle between four sensitivity profiles. The push-fit switch socket design also makes it simple to change click resistances and extend a mouse’s lifespan, while its five programmable buttons can be customized to suit your playstyle.
ROG Sheath Electro Punk gaming mouse pad
The special ROG Sheath desk mat allows for pinpoint precision for gaming mice. At a size of 35 inches across and 17 inches deep, it provides unmatched comfort and cushion for ROG peripherals.
The product is made of tightly-woven fabric that tops a nonslip back that doesn’t budge. The reinforced stitches along its bright edge limit fraying, while the black fabric across the right-hand side helps minimize scuff marks in the most used areas.
ROG Electro Punk backpack
Completing the Electro Punk Collection is the ROG Ranger BP1503 backpack. Customized with pink piping, patches, and a saucy slash across the front.
The 15-inch laptop bag’s durable, lightweight water-repellent exterior is made to protect your gear from drizzle and everyday splashes, while mesh netting inside lets you organize cords in a tangle-free fashion, while a cushioned compartment keeps your laptop cozy.
