To optimise the cooling within the ROG GR8 II, ASUS had placed vents as well as allocated dedicated chambers for both the CPU and GPU, providing the right amount of airflow to each component for stable performance. It also has a VR-friendly design with two HDMI ports, connecting both a VR headset and display simultaneously. Not forgetting, the GR8 II has Aura Sync RGB lighting, which can be set to synchronise in up to 12 modes with other ROG peripherals too.
