MSI Crosshair 18 HX AI 18" QHD+ 240Hz RTX 5070 Ultra 9 275HX 64GB 4TB Gray gaming laptop

18-inch QHD+ 240 Hz gaming laptop

This MSI Crosshair 18 HX AI model pairs an 18.0 inch IPS panel at 2560 x 1600 resolution with a 240 Hz refresh rate and 100 percent DCI-P3 coverage. It runs on an Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX processor with 24 cores and 24 threads reaching 5.4 GHz, an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 with 8GB GDDR7 video memory, 64GB DDR5 5600 memory and a 4TB PCIe Gen 4x4 NVMe SSD under Windows 11 Pro.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

The 240 Hz QHD+ display, 24-core CPU and RTX 5070 suit competitive gamers and creators who need high frame rates and colour accuracy in a large chassis. Buyers wanting a thinner, lighter device or longer unplugged runtime from the 90 Whr battery should consider smaller alternatives.

Deciding specification — 240 Hz 18-inch QHD+ panel

The 18.0 inch 2560 x 1600 IPS screen running at 240 Hz with full DCI-P3 coverage is the single spec that determines fit; if you need that refresh rate at this size and resolution, this laptop matches, otherwise a different panel configuration will serve you better.
