16.0" QHD+ 240Hz display

The 16.0 inch panel delivers a 2560 x 1600 resolution at a 240Hz refresh rate. This combination targets gamers who want sharp detail and smooth motion in fast titles. The screen covers the full panel without a touchscreen layer. It suits competitive play and content review alike.

RTX 5060 8GB GDDR7 graphics

The laptop GPU provides 8GB of GDDR7 video memory for modern rendering workloads. Frame rates stay high at the native 2560 x 1600 resolution in many current games. Heavier ray-tracing or upscaling features will push the 8GB buffer toward its limit. Thermal headroom in the 1.1 inch chassis governs sustained boost clocks.

Ryzen 9 8940HX with 32GB DDR5 and 2TB PCIe

The 16-core processor reaches 5.4 GHz turbo across 32 threads for multi-tasking and creative work. 32GB of DDR5 memory handles large project files and background apps without paging. The 2TB PCIe SSD stores a deep game library and media cache. Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth keep wireless links stable. Windows 11 Pro and Office 2024 are pre-installed.
