18-inch QHD+ 240Hz gaming laptop

The MSI Crosshair 18 pairs an 18.0 inch IPS panel at 2560 x 1600 resolution with a 240Hz refresh rate. An Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX processor with 24 cores and 5.4 GHz turbo drives the system. NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 graphics with 8GB GDDR7 memory handle rendering. 32GB DDR5 memory and a 2TB PCIe SSD complete the core specification.

Ports and user-upgrade access

The chassis provides one HDMI 2.1 output, three USB-A 3.2 Gen1 ports, one RJ45 jack, one audio combo jack and one USB-C Thunderbolt 4 port with DP and PD 3.0. The factory seal is opened by engineers for memory or storage upgrades before shipment. No SD card reader is fitted.

Thunderbolt 4 and wireless limits

The single USB-C Thunderbolt 4 connection supports DisplayPort and Power Delivery 3.0 but shares bandwidth with other high-speed traffic. Wireless connectivity uses Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3 for compatible routers and peripherals. The 720p webcam and 24-zone RGB keyboard with Copilot key round out the feature set.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the 18" QHD+ 240Hz panel is running at full refresh rate after setup?

Open Windows display settings or the NVIDIA control panel and confirm the refresh rate shows 240 Hz at 2560 x 1600. The IPS panel should deliver crisp motion in fast-paced titles without tearing when the RTX 5070 8GB GDDR7 GPU is driving frames at that rate.

What ships inside the box and what must I purchase separately?

The box contains the Crosshair 18 laptop with the Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX 24-core CPU, 32GB DDR5 memory, 2TB PCIe SSD, RTX 5070 graphics, 24-zone RGB keyboard with Copilot key, Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.3 and 720p webcam. No external peripherals, storage expansion or docking station are included.

Which configuration choice matters most between the listed versions for this Crosshair 18?

This model is a single SKU: 18" QHD+ 240Hz display, Ultra 9 275HX processor, RTX 5070 8GB GDDR7, 32GB DDR5 and 2TB PCIe SSD. There are no alternate screen, GPU or memory options to select; the only decisions are colour (black) and any post-purchase storage or RAM upgrades you may want.
