Raider 18 HX AI A2XWIG-014US 18" UHD+ 120Hz Mini LED

This 18-inch gaming laptop pairs an Intel Core Ultra 9 285HX 24-core processor with an NVIDIA RTX 5080 GPU carrying 16 GB GDDR7 video memory. It runs Windows 11 Pro on 96 GB DDR5 5600 MHz dual-channel RAM and a combined 4 TB PCIe NVMe storage array. Gelid GC Extreme thermal compound is applied to the CPU and GPU during assembly.

Suits users who need 96 GB memory and 4 TB storage

The 96 GB capacity supports heavy multitasking, large dataset analysis and professional content creation workloads that exceed typical 16–48 GB configurations. Buyers whose primary work fits in 16–48 GB memory or who prioritise a lighter chassis should evaluate smaller models instead.

96 GB DDR5 5600 MHz dual-channel memory

This specification determines whether the system can hold your active projects without paging to the 4 TB PCIe 5.0 x4 and 4.0 x4 NVMe SSDs. Verify that your applications require this capacity before choosing this configuration.
