  • 4 TB PCIe NVMe storage via 2 TB PCIe 5.0 x4 plus 2 TB PCIe 4.0 x4 SSDs

18-inch UHD+ 120Hz Mini LED display

The 18-inch panel delivers a 3840 by 2400 resolution at 120 Hz using Mini LED backlighting. It targets creators and gamers who need a large, high-detail canvas for colour-critical work or immersive play. The form factor suits stationary setups where screen real estate outweighs portability.

128 GB DDR5 5600 MHz and 4 TB PCIe SSD

Memory comes as two 64 GB modules running at 5600 MHz in dual-channel mode, giving ample headroom for virtual machines, large datasets and heavy multitasking. Storage splits across a 2 TB PCIe 5.0 x4 drive and a 2 TB PCIe 4.0 x4 drive, so the operating system and active projects sit on the faster volume while bulk media uses the second. Both capacities are fixed at the time of purchase.

Gelid GC Extreme thermal compound upgrade

The builder replaces the stock thermal interface material with Gelid GC Extreme on the Core Ultra 9 285HX and the RTX 5090 laptop GPU. Lower junction temperatures reduce the likelihood of throttling during sustained loads such as rendering or extended gaming sessions. The improvement matters most when the chassis is pushed continuously rather than in short bursts.

Questions about this item

Will my existing DDR5 5600 MHz SO-DIMM kit run at its rated speed alongside the factory 128 GB (2 × 64 GB) DDR5 5600 MHz memory?

The system ships with 128 GB of DDR5 5600 MHz in a dual-channel 2 × 64 GB configuration; any additional modules must match that speed and form factor to operate at 5600 MHz.

How can I verify the RTX 5090 GPU with 24 GB GDDR7 is performing to specification after setup?

Run a GPU benchmark or stress test and confirm the 24 GB GDDR7 video memory is detected and the core clocks reach expected boost levels under load.

What storage drives are included and what must I purchase separately for expansion?

The laptop includes a 2 TB PCIe 5.0 ×4 NVMe SSD and a 2 TB PCIe 4.0 ×4 NVMe SSD totalling 4 TB; any extra M.2 NVMe drives for the remaining slots are sold separately.
