Questions about this item

Will the 16.0 inch 2560 x 1600 240Hz panel fit my desk setup?

The laptop measures 14.13 x 10.49 x 1.1 inches and weighs 5.51 pounds so it needs a surface at least that deep and wide plus room for the power brick.

Can the 32GB DDR5 and 2TB PCIe SSD be upgraded later?

The system ships with 32GB DDR5 and a 2TB PCIe SSD installed; both slots are accessible after removing the base cover for future expansion.

Does the RTX 5060 8GB GDDR7 drive an external 4K monitor at high refresh?

The HDMI port supports 4K output and the USB Type-C ports carry DisplayPort signalling so a 4K high-refresh display will run from the discrete GPU.
