ASUS has released the ProArt StudioBook Pro 17 (W700). It's the new laptop specifically designed for the workloads facing today's content creators.

ASUS Launches ProArt StudioBook Pro 17

Content creators face diverse challenges: Photographers and producers are more concerned with color accuracy, while designers, game developers, and other creative professionals need the highest possible rendering speed.

17 "NanoEdge display in a 15" chassis

Taking advantage of the ultra-thin frame of the NanoEdge display, ASUS has successfully installed a 17-inch display with a 16:10 aspect ratio into the 15-inch body of the ProArt StudioBook Pro 17. 5.3mm side edges maximize space Available on-screen and provide an experience similar to working with an external monitor. The panel supports the DCI-P3 color gamut at 97%, a color space that offers a much wider color palette than sRGB and is preferred in the video and film industry. In addition, PANTONE® validation guarantees extraordinary color accuracy.

The panel is factory calibrated with a Delta-E color accuracy of less than 1.5 that matches ASUS ProArt monitor specifications and exceeds PANTONE requirements. 178 ° viewing angles ensure colors stay vivid and bright from any angle, and the 180 ° hinge lets you open the screen however you want, even flat on the table; something that is very useful when you share the work with the clients and collaborators of the project.

Unmatched performance for demanding workloads

Design, 3D rendering, simulations and complex scientific calculations require the highest possible performance. The StudioBook Pro 17 is available with Intel Core i7 processors and NVIDIA Quadro RTX 3000 graphics. This GPU is ready to work with professional applications with high energy efficiency, which keeps fan noise to a minimum when working with large projects. Supports up to 64 GB of RAM. It also has two PCIe SSDs in a RAID 0 configuration connected to the CPU directly.

At its bottom, the 18.4mm chassis of the ASUS StudioBook Pro 17 features openings that extend across the width to increase airflow. Additionally, five heat pipes draw heat away from the CPU, GPU, and VRM, directing it toward the sides and rear of the laptop, while the sculpted covers of the two fans channel more air into them. This thermal solution keeps the temperature at bay and only produces 35 dB of noise, even if the CPU works at full load.

The StudioBook Pro 17 measures 382 x 286 x 18.4 mm, dimensions that make it the thinnest Quadro RTX notebook on the market. The Star Gray aluminum chassis features a textured finish that runs along the lid and palm rest. These diagonal lines are accented by rose gold diamond cut edges that highlight the slim profile of the notebook. Weighing 2.39 kg, this laptop is light enough to carry in a backpack or briefcase. In addition, it has passed the impact tests, temperature, humidity and altitude of the MIL-STD-810G military standard.

Other features

The backlit keyboard has 1.4mm of travel for comfortable typing, and the cursors are textured to find by touch. It incorporates shortcut keys that improve efficiency and a shortcut to turn the HD webcam on and off. Tapping the right corner of the touchpad activates the discreet NumberPad, an LED numeric keypad that makes it easy to enter numbers. Users can control the cursor with the touchpad even if NumberPad is activated.

Packed with HDMI 2.0 ports and USB-C with Thunderbolt3 support, this portable workstation also supports traditional multi-monitor setups. The Thunderbolt 3 version uses Intel's new JHL7340 'Titan Ridge' controller, which is compatible with DisplayPort 1.4 and 8K displays. These ports are accompanied by three USB 3.1 Gen. 2 type A ports that allow you to connect external storage drives and peripherals without having to use USB accessories.

With up to 2.4Gbps speed, the Dual Band WiFi 6 (802.11ax) standard is 3x faster than 802.11ac, enables large files to be transferred quickly, is more stable, and offers a superior range. The StudioBook Pro 17 also features a high-speed SD card reader (SD 4.0 / UHS-II).

The ASUS StudioBook Pro 17 can now be officially purchased at a price of 2, 249 euros, as confirmed by the brand itself.
