18-inch 240Hz WQXGA gaming laptop

This 18.0 inch WQXGA panel runs at 240 Hz and 2560x1600 resolution for smooth competitive play. The AMD Ryzen 9 8940HX processor delivers 16 cores and 32 threads with a 5.3 GHz turbo frequency. NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 graphics with 8GB GDDR7 memory handle modern titles at high settings. Windows 11 Home is pre-installed.

Sustained load behaviour

The 280W power supply feeds both the CPU and discrete GPU during extended sessions. A 90 WHr 4-cell battery provides mobility when mains power is not available. The system uses DDR5 SO-DIMM memory running in dual-channel configuration for consistent bandwidth. Wireless connectivity relies on 802.11ax WiFi 6E and Bluetooth 5.4 for stable network links.

Build quality and daily connectivity

Eclipse Gray chassis measures 15.75 x 11.75 x 1.4 inches and weighs 6lb for a portable desktop replacement. RGB keyboard backlighting and a built-in webcam support streaming and late-night work. Physical ports include HDMI output, a headphone/microphone combo jack and an RJ-45 Ethernet socket. No optical drive is fitted, keeping the profile slim.
