18-inch UHD+ Mini LED display

The 18-inch UHD+ Mini LED panel delivers a 3840 x 2400 resolution at a 240 Hz refresh rate. High pixel density and local dimming provide sharp detail and deep contrast for creative work and competitive gaming alike.

Intel Core Ultra 9 290HX Plus sustained performance

The 24-core processor with 36 MB L3 cache reaches a 5.5 GHz max turbo frequency. Gelid GC Extreme thermal interface material on the CPU and GPU lowers temperatures under prolonged loads, reducing throttling during extended rendering or simulation sessions.

PCIe 4.0 NVMe storage interface

Dual 2 TB M.2 drives operate on a PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe link, giving a combined 4 TB capacity. Sequential throughput is limited by the Gen 4 interface rather than the drive controllers, so sustained writes settle at the bus ceiling during large project transfers.

Questions about this item

How hot or loud does the Core Ultra 9 290HX Plus and RTX 5090 run during all-day loads with the Gelid GC Extreme paste?

The Gelid GC Extreme thermal interface material on the CPU and GPU lowers system temperatures to prevent throttling during intensive tasks, which also helps keep fan noise down under sustained heavy workloads.

Does the 4 TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe storage and 96 GB DDR5 5600 MHz memory come installed, or must I add them myself?

The laptop ships with 4 TB of PCIe 4.0 NVMe storage configured as two 2 TB drives and 96 GB of DDR5 5600 MHz memory configured as two 48 GB modules, all installed and tested before dispatch.

Will my existing PCIe 3.0 NVMe drives work if I swap them into the M.2 slots later?

The M.2 slots support PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe SSDs and are backward compatible with PCIe 3.0 drives, so older NVMe storage will function at PCIe 3.0 speeds.
