Built for competitive gaming and content creation

The MSI Crosshair 18 HX AI is an 18-inch gaming laptop powered by an Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX processor with 24 cores and 32GB of DDR5 5600 memory. An NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 GPU with 8GB of GDDR7 video memory drives a 2560 x 1600 IPS panel at 240 Hz. The system ships with Windows 11 Pro and a 2TB PCIe Gen 4x4 NVMe SSD.

Display interface limits at HDMI 2.1

The laptop includes one HDMI 2.1 port for external monitors, supporting 4K at high refresh rates. Three USB-A 3.2 Gen1 ports and one USB-C Thunderbolt 4 connection handle peripherals and display output. Wired networking runs over a 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ-45 jack. Wireless connectivity uses Intel Wi-Fi 6E AX211 and Bluetooth 5.3.

GPU memory decides 1440p ultra texture headroom

The RTX 5070 Laptop GPU provides 8GB of GDDR7 memory, which determines how high you can push texture quality at the native QHD+ resolution. The 240 Hz IPS panel covers 100% DCI-P3 for colour-critical work. A 90 Wh battery and 240 W adapter power the 6.83 lb chassis.
