18-inch UHD+ Mini LED display

The 18-inch UHD+ panel runs at 3840 x 2400 resolution and a 120 Hz refresh rate. Mini LED backlighting provides high contrast and bright highlights for gaming and content work. The 16 GB GDDR7 video memory on the RTX 5080 feeds the panel with high frame rates in modern titles.

Gelid GC Extreme thermal compound upgrade

HIDevolution applies Gelid GC Extreme on the CPU and GPU to lower temperatures under load. This helps prevent throttling during sustained compute or graphics tasks. Buyers who prefer stock thermal paste or who do not run long heavy workloads may not need this modification.

16 TB dual NVMe storage and 96 GB DDR5 memory

Two 8 TB PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe SSDs give 16 TB total capacity for fast boot and load times. Two 48 GB DDR5 5600 MHz modules provide 96 GB dual-channel memory for memory-intensive applications and multitasking. Windows 11 Pro is pre-installed by the builder.
