The ASUS ProArt StudioBook Pro 17 is a mobile workstation built for video editors, 3D artists, and engineers who need certified graphics performance in a laptop chassis. ASUS positioned it against the Dell Precision and HP ZBook lines, pairing workstation-grade Intel processors with Quadro-class graphics and a color-accurate 17.3-inch panel. It holds its value because that combination is rare in a laptop: ECC memory support, ISV certification for apps like AutoCAD and Maya, and ProArt's ASUS Dial for creative software, none of which show up in consumer laptops at any price. If you no longer need workstation-class rendering power, or you have moved to a desktop setup, this is a laptop worth cashing in rather than letting sit idle. Pick your processor and graphics configuration and your condition in the picker above for an instant cash offer, and see how the process works before you send it in. You can also browse what else qualifies if you plan to sell your ASUS laptop.

Confirm you have the ProArt StudioBook Pro 17

Press Windows key + R, type msinfo32, and hit enter to open System Information. The "System Model" field will confirm ProArt StudioBook Pro 17, and "Processor" will tell you whether you have a Xeon or Core i7 9th Gen chip. You can also check the GPU under Device Manager → Display adapters, which will list the specific Quadro RTX model installed.

Intel Xeon configuration

  • Xeon processor listed under System Information or Task Manager → Performance
  • Typically paired with ECC memory, confirmed in msinfo32 under Memory type
  • Targeted at ISV-certified workflows in CAD and simulation software

Intel Core i7 9th Gen configuration

  • Core i7-9xxx series listed under System Information
  • Non-ECC memory in most builds
  • Aimed at creative work like video editing and 3D modeling rather than engineering simulation

Prefer a visual check? Look for the physical ASUS Dial to the left of the trackpad, a signature ProArt feature not found on other ASUS lines. The lid carries a matte, dark gray finish with a small ProArt badge, and the hinge runs the full width of the base for stability under a heavy display.

Core hardware configurations

Processor

  • Intel Xeon (workstation tier)
  • Intel Core i7, 9th Gen (H-series mobile)

Graphics

  • NVIDIA Quadro RTX 3000 (mobile workstation GPU)
  • Certified for professional CAD, DCC, and rendering applications

Memory

  • DDR4 memory across dual SO-DIMM slots
  • Xeon configurations support ECC memory for data-integrity-sensitive work

Storage

  • Dual PCIe NVMe SSD slots, configurable independently or in RAID
  • Storage tier and RAM capacity move resale value more than processor choice, since both affect real-world render and editing speed

Display & audio

Display

A 17.3-inch panel factory-calibrated for color accuracy, aimed at users who need consistent output for print or video deliverables rather than the widest color gamut on paper.

Audio

Stereo speakers tuned for clear dialogue and reference monitoring, adequate for editing checks but not a substitute for external monitors on final mixes.

Security

A fingerprint reader integrated into the power button allows quick Windows Hello sign-in without a separate sensor pad.

Ports & connectivity

The ProArt StudioBook Pro 17 carries the port selection expected of a desktop-replacement workstation, including a wired networking option many thin-and-light laptops have dropped.

Left side
  • Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C)
  • HDMI
  • Gigabit Ethernet (RJ45)
Right side
  • USB-A ports
  • SD card reader
  • Headphone/microphone combo jack

Battery, build & more

Dimensions & weight

This is a heavy, thick chassis by design, built to house a full workstation thermal solution rather than to travel light. Expect a noticeably heavier feel than a consumer 17-inch laptop.

Build & finish

An aluminum-magnesium alloy chassis in a dark, matte ProArt finish, designed to withstand daily studio use rather than showroom styling.

Market positioning

Sits in the professional workstation tier rather than the consumer laptop market, so demand comes primarily from buyers who need certified graphics drivers, not general users.

Known issues

Fan noise under sustained load is commonly reported, a tradeoff of packing workstation-class cooling into a laptop chassis. Battery life runs short compared with consumer ultrabooks when the Quadro GPU is active.

Frequently asked questions

01 How do I find the model number or exact configuration?
Open System Information (Windows key + R, then msinfo32) and check the System Model and Processor fields. This confirms it is a ProArt StudioBook Pro 17 and tells you whether you have a Xeon or Core i7 9th Gen chip. For the graphics card, open Device Manager and expand Display adapters, where the specific Quadro RTX model will be listed. You can also find general guidance for locating model information on any ASUS model number if the sticker underneath is worn or missing.
02 How do I tell it apart from the ProArt StudioBook One?
Check for the ASUS Dial next to the trackpad and the processor listed in System Information. The StudioBook One uses a desktop-class Xeon and Quadro RTX 6000 pairing in a different chassis design, while the StudioBook Pro 17 offers the Xeon or Core i7 9th Gen and Quadro RTX 3000 combination described on this page. The System Model field in msinfo32 will show "StudioBook Pro 17" specifically, removing any doubt.
03 Can I sell it with damage, a weak battery, or if it won't turn on?
Yes, condition is simply reflected in the quote rather than being a reason to turn a device away. Cracked screens, worn batteries, and units that won't power on can all be submitted; select the matching condition in the picker above and the offer adjusts accordingly. Before shipping, make sure you have signed out of any Microsoft account tied to the machine, since a locked account can delay processing. If the laptop won't boot, you are not expected to remove the account first; just note the issue when you submit it.
04 What raises the trade-in value the most?
Storage capacity and installed RAM matter most, followed by overall cosmetic condition and whether the original charger is included. Because this is a workstation aimed at professional buyers, a fully functional Quadro GPU with no thermal throttling history also carries real weight. A clean chassis free of dents near the hinge, since that area takes the most stress on a 17-inch workstation, will also help the grade.
05 How do I erase it and get paid?
Go to Settings → System → Recovery → Reset this PC and choose to remove everything. Before resetting, remove the device from your Microsoft account under Settings → Accounts, and if BitLocker is enabled, suspend it so the reset completes cleanly. Once the reset finishes, ship the laptop in; shipping is free and insured. Payment goes out after our team tests the unit, and you can choose PayPal, Venmo, Zelle, CashApp, or a mailed check. Full erasure steps for every platform are laid out in our data erasure protocols.
