Why this and not the SCAR 18
The SCAR costs R8 370 less and has the same graphics card at higher sustained power in a much bigger body. This one has 64GB of memory instead of 32, an OLED panel instead of IPS, and weighs 1.4kg less. If your work is memory-hungry - large 3D scenes, many virtual machines, local AI models - and you have to carry the machine, this is the only laptop on this list that does both. If it stays on a desk, the SCAR is the better buy and we will tell you so.
The memory is soldered - and that is fine here
64GB of LPDDR5X-8533 is on the board and cannot be changed. On the cheaper Zephyrus models we flag that as a real limitation; at 64GB it stops mattering for almost anyone, and the payoff is memory bandwidth far beyond what SO-DIMMs deliver, which is part of how a chassis this thin keeps an RTX 5090 fed.

Questions
Before you buy
What is inside this laptop?
RTX 5090 24GB graphics, 64GB LPDDR5X of memory and a 16" OLED 240Hz display. The full configuration, including storage and ports, is in the Specifications section above.
Can I upgrade the memory or storage later?
It varies by model - some laptops have sockets you can reach behind a service panel, others solder the memory to the board. Whatever this one supports is listed under Specifications, and opening the machine yourself can affect the warranty. Ask us before you buy an upgrade and we will confirm what will fit.
Is it in stock, and when will it ship?
This one is out of stock at the moment. Stock does come back in - WhatsApp us on 079 491 0181 with the model and we will tell you what the supplier is showing and let you know when it lands, rather than leaving you to keep checking the page.
What does delivery cost, and how long does it take?
We deliver by courier anywhere in South Africa, and delivery is R180 on orders under R2 500 and free on orders of R2 500 or more. It takes 1-3 working days to Johannesburg, Pretoria, Cape Town, Durban and areas within 100km of them, and 2-4 working days to areas more than 100km from a major centre, counted from the day the order is dispatched. Need it sooner? Express delivery is 1-2 working days for R210, or R150 on orders of R2 500 or more - choose it at checkout. We do not ship outside South Africa.
Can I collect instead of having it delivered?
Yes. Collection is from 11 Voortrekker Avenue, Edenvale, Gauteng, by arrangement - message us first so we can have the order picked and waiting. We are open 09:00 to 16:30, Monday to Friday.
What warranty does it carry, and how do I claim?
The warranty period for this product is listed at the end of the Specifications section above. Claims go through us, not the manufacturer - contact us with your order number and a description of the fault and we will handle it from there. Separately from any warranty, the Consumer Protection Act gives you six months from delivery to return goods that are defective, unsafe or not fit for their intended purpose.
What if I change my mind?
You have 14 days from delivery to change your mind - longer than the seven days the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act requires. The item needs to be unused and in its original packaging, and we pay the return shipping. Refunds go back to the payment method you used, within 30 days of the return reaching us.
How can I pay?
Payments are processed by Stitch. At the last step of checkout you are taken to Stitch’s secure page to pay, and brought back here once it is done. Your card details are entered on Stitch’s secure, PCI-compliant page and never touch our systems.
