18-inch Mini-LED 250 Hz display

The 18.0-inch Mini-LED panel delivers 2560 x 1600 resolution at 250 Hz with 1000 nits brightness and G-SYNC. The non-touch screen targets competitive gamers and creators who need high refresh rates and HDR highlights in a laptop form factor.

Verify Thunderbolt 5 and HDMI 2.1 dock compatibility

Two Thunderbolt 5 ports and one HDMI 2.1 output drive external displays and peripherals. Confirm that your existing dock, monitor cables and power delivery hardware support these exact interfaces before ordering.

24-core CPU with NPU and RTX 5080 thermals

The Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX runs a 2.1 GHz base clock and 5.4 GHz boost across 24 cores and threads, paired with a 13 TOPS NPU and GeForce RTX 5080 Laptop GPU. Sustained loads engage the advanced cooling system; expect elevated fan noise under heavy gaming or AI workloads while the chassis manages combined CPU and GPU power draw.

Questions about this item

Will this 18-inch laptop fit in a standard 18-inch laptop sleeve?

The screen diagonal is 18 inches, so a sleeve sized for 18-inch laptops should accommodate the chassis; check the sleeve's internal depth and width against the laptop's exact dimensions.

Does the Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX require a specific cooler or power adapter beyond what ships in the box?

The laptop includes its own cooling system and power adapter matched to the 24-core CPU and RTX 5080 GPU; no extra cooler or adapter is needed for normal operation.

Can I add a second SSD later without voiding the warranty?

The unit ships with a 1 TB SSD installed; internal upgrade procedures depend on the manufacturer's service terms, so review the warranty documentation before opening the chassis.
