Titan 18 HX A2WJ identity

This 18-inch laptop combines an Intel Core Ultra 9 290HX Plus 24-core processor with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 Laptop GPU carrying 24 GB GDDR7. The 3840 x 2400 Mini LED panel runs at 240 Hz. It ships with Windows 11 Pro, 96 GB DDR5 5600 memory and 32 TB of PCIe 4.0 NVMe storage in a Core Black chassis.

High-end creators and competitive gamers

The 5.5 GHz turbo frequency, 36 MB L3 cache and 24 GPU memory gigabytes suit 3D rendering, simulation and 4K gaming workloads. The 7.94 lb weight and 1.26 inch maximum thickness make it impractical for daily commuting or cramped airline trays. Buyers needing all-day battery life or a sub-2 kg device should consider thinner alternatives.

HIDevolution thermal and storage upgrades

Gelid GC Extreme thermal compound replaces the stock paste on both CPU and GPU, lowering peak temperatures and reducing throttling during sustained loads. The 32 TB array is assembled as two 8 TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe modules, doubling the factory capacity. Memory is populated as two 48 GB DDR5 5600 sticks for dual-channel bandwidth.

Questions about this item

What memory capacity and type must the laptop already support for the installed 96 GB DDR5 5600 MHz modules to run?

The system ships with 96 GB of DDR5 5600 MHz memory in a 2 x 48 GB dual-channel configuration, so the platform must support DDR5 at that speed and capacity.

How does the 24-core Intel Core Ultra 9 290HX Plus interact with the RTX 5090 GPU when both are under sustained load?

Gelid GC Extreme thermal compound is applied to both the CPU and GPU to lower temperatures and reduce throttling during heavy workloads.

How can I verify the 32 TB storage array is recognised and performing at PCIe 4.0 x4 speeds after first boot?

The 32 TB array consists of two 8 TB M.2 PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe SSDs; check Device Manager and run a sequential read benchmark to confirm both drives operate at Gen 4 throughput.
