18-inch QHD+ 240Hz gaming laptop

The MSI Crosshair 18 HX AI pairs an 18.0-inch 2560 x 1600 display with a 240Hz refresh rate. An Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX processor with 24 cores and a 5.4 GHz turbo frequency drives the system. NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 graphics with 8GB GDDR7 memory handle rendering. 64GB DDR5 memory and a 4TB PCIe SSD complete the core specification.

Suited for high-refresh competitive play

The 24-core CPU and 64GB memory give headroom for streaming, encoding and running multiple applications alongside games. The 240Hz panel benefits fast-paced shooters and esports titles. Buyers who need a smaller chassis, longer unplugged runtime or a lower-resolution screen with higher frame rates should evaluate other models.

4TB PCIe SSD and 64GB DDR5 provide large capacity

The 4TB drive stores extensive game libraries, media projects and virtual machines without frequent cleanup. 64GB memory supports heavy multitasking, large texture packs and memory-hungry creative workloads. Storage expansion depends on available internal slots not detailed here. Memory is likely at the platform maximum, limiting further upgrades.

Questions about this item

What external display connection does the HDMI 2.1 port provide for the 2560 x 1600 panel?

Will the Thunderbolt 5 ports work with my existing Thunderbolt 3 dock and peripherals?
