The display delivers a 1920 x 1200 resolution at 165Hz with 500-nit brightness and 100% DCI-P3 coverage. An NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 GPU with 6GB GDDR6 handles graphics workloads.

14-Core i7-12700H and RTX 3060

This configuration suits users who want a high-refresh IPS-level panel with Adaptive-Sync and factory colour validation for creative work. The 16GB DDR5 4800MHz memory and 8TB NVMe storage support heavy multitasking and large project libraries. Buyers needing more than 16GB of RAM or a higher-tier mobile GPU should evaluate other models.

Dual 4TB M.2 PCIe 3.0 x4 NVMe

Verify that your workflow can utilise the installed 16GB DDR5 memory, as the specification lists 8GB on-board plus one 8GB module. Confirm the physical dimensions of 13.98 x 9.57 x 0.78 inches and 4.19 weight units fit your transport requirements. Ensure your peripherals and external displays are compatible with the available I/O ports.

Questions about this item

Does the laptop need any extra RAM modules to reach its 16 GB DDR5 4800MHz configuration?

No, the 16 GB is already populated as 8 GB soldered on-board plus an 8 GB DDR5 4800MHz module, so the system runs at full capacity out of the box.

Can I keep using my existing PCIe 3.0 NVMe drives alongside the two 4 TB M.2 PCIe 3.0 x4 NVMe SSDs installed?

Both M.2 slots are occupied by the 4 TB drives, so additional PCIe 3.0 NVMe storage would require replacing one of the existing SSDs.

How can I verify the 16.0" WUXGA panel is running at its 165 Hz 3 ms Adaptive-Sync mode after setup?

Open Windows display settings or the NVIDIA control panel and confirm the refresh rate is set to 165 Hz; Adaptive-Sync will show as enabled when a compatible full-screen application is running.
