18-inch 2.5K 240Hz display

The 18.0-inch WQXGA panel runs at 2560 x 1600 resolution with a 240Hz refresh rate. It delivers sharp detail and smooth motion for fast-paced gaming and content creation workloads. The larger canvas also provides more room for multitasking across windows.

Intel Ultra 9 275HX with RTX 5070 Ti 12GB

The 24-core processor reaches 5.4GHz turbo and pairs with the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti laptop GPU carrying 12GB GDDR7 memory. This combination suits competitive gamers and creators who need high frame rates and GPU acceleration. Buyers seeking longer unplugged runtime or a lighter chassis should consider smaller alternatives.

16GB DDR5 memory and 2TB PCIe SSD

The system ships with 16GB of DDR5 memory and a 2TB PCIe SSD. The memory capacity is the key factor for buyers who run memory-heavy applications or virtual machines and cannot upgrade later. Verify that 16GB meets your workload before purchasing.

Questions about this item

Will my existing Thunderbolt 4 dock work with the two Thunderbolt 5 ports on this laptop?

Yes, the Thunderbolt 5 ports are backward compatible with Thunderbolt 4 and USB-C devices, so your current dock will function normally.

How can I verify the 240 Hz panel is actually running at 240 Hz after I set up Windows 11?

Open Settings > System > Display > Advanced display and confirm the refresh rate dropdown shows 240 Hz; the on-screen display can also report the active rate in games.

What accessories are included in the box and what must I buy separately for the 18" 2.5K 240Hz model?

The box contains the laptop, its power adapter and documentation; extra USB-C or Thunderbolt cables, an external mouse and a laptop sleeve are not included.
