18-inch QHD+ 240 Hz Gaming Laptop

The MSI Crosshair 18 HX AI is an 18-inch gaming laptop built around a 240 Hz QHD+ IPS panel that covers 100% DCI-P3. It pairs an Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX 24-core processor with 64GB of DDR5 5600 memory and a 4TB PCIe Gen 4x4 NVMe SSD. An NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 with 8GB GDDR7 drives the graphics. The system ships with Windows 11 Pro.

Who This Suits and Who Should Look Elsewhere

This configuration suits users who need a large high-refresh display, 64GB of memory and 4TB of fast storage in a single chassis. The 24-core CPU and RTX 5070 handle modern titles and multithreaded workloads. Buyers who prioritise a lighter device, longer battery life or a smaller screen should consider other models.

The Specification That Decides Fit

The 18-inch 2560 x 1600 240 Hz IPS panel is the single specification that determines whether this laptop matches the buyer's needs. It dictates the physical footprint, the visual experience and the GPU load in games. If the screen size, resolution or refresh rate does not align with the intended use, the other components become secondary.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 4 TB drive or one of the smaller sizes?

The 4 TB PCIe Gen 4x4 NVMe SSD gives the most space for large game libraries and media files without adding a second drive.

How does the 240 Hz panel feel in actual games?

The 18 inch QHD+ IPS screen refreshes at 240 Hz and covers 100% DCI-P3, so motion stays sharp and colours stay accurate during fast play.

What does the Thunderbolt 4 port actually support?

The USB-C Thunderbolt 4 connection carries DisplayPort and Power Delivery 3.0, allowing external monitors and charging through the same port.
