15.6" QHD 165Hz Display

The 15.6 inch panel delivers a 2560 by 1440 resolution at a 165Hz refresh rate. An IPS anti-glare coating keeps colours consistent across viewing angles. This combination suits fast-paced gaming and detailed creative work alike.

Cooler Boost 5 Under Sustained Load

The Cooler Boost 5 thermal system manages heat from the 16-core i7-14650HX and RTX 5070 during extended sessions. Dual fans and enlarged heat pipes move airflow away from the CPU and GPU cores. Temperatures remain controlled so clock speeds hold steady rather than throttling after a short burst.

7-in-1 Docking Station With 1TB SSD

The bundled dock adds a 1TB PCIe drive plus multiple ports through a single Type-C link. It expands storage and connectivity without occupying the laptop's own USB 3.2 Gen2 Type-C, three Type-A ports or HDMI output. The 1TB MicroSD card and adapter further extend removable media options.

Questions about this item

How loud does the Cooler Boost 5 system run when the i7-14650HX and RTX 5070 are under sustained load?

The Cooler Boost 5 thermal design uses dual fans and enlarged heat pipes to keep the 16-core i7-14650HX and RTX 5070 8GB GDDR7 cool during long sessions; fan noise rises under heavy load but stays within typical gaming-laptop levels.

Which peripherals or cables must I already own to use the 7-in-1 docking station and its 1TB SSD?

The dock connects through the single USB 3.2 Gen2 Type-C port and includes its own Type-C data cable, 3-in-1 charging cable and 32GB MicroSD card with adapter, so no extra cables are required for basic operation.

Will my existing HDMI 1.4 monitor run at the laptop's native 2560 x 1440 resolution through the HDMI port?

The HDMI output supports up to 2560 x 1440 at 165 Hz, so an older HDMI 1.4 display will be limited to its own maximum refresh rate at that resolution.
