18-inch UHD+ 240Hz Mini LED

The 18-inch UHD+ Mini LED panel runs at 3840 x 2400 with a 240 Hz refresh rate. It is driven by an Intel Core Ultra 9 290HX Plus processor and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 laptop GPU with 24 GB of GDDR7 video memory. The system targets users who need desktop-class graphics and compute in a portable chassis.

Sustained load with Gelid GC Extreme

Gelid GC Extreme thermal interface material is applied to the CPU and GPU to lower temperatures during extended workloads. The 24-core processor reaches a max turbo frequency of 5.5 GHz, and the upgrade aims to prevent throttling when both the 8P+16E cores and the GPU are under continuous pressure. A burn-in stress test verifies thermal behaviour before shipment.

24 TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe storage limit

Storage consists of two 8 TB M.2 PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe SSDs for a total of 24 TB. The Gen4 interface caps sequential throughput at the PCIe 4.0 x4 ceiling, so sustained transfer rates cannot exceed that standard. System memory is 128 GB of DDR5 5600 MHz in dual-channel configuration, subject to platform capability.

Questions about this item

Will the 18-inch UHD+ 240Hz Mini LED display fit in a standard 17-inch laptop sleeve?

The chassis measures 15.91 inches wide by 12.11 inches deep, so it exceeds typical 17-inch sleeve dimensions and requires an 18-inch or larger bag.

Does the 24 TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe storage arrive as a single drive or multiple modules?

It is configured as two 8 TB M.2 modules for a total of 24 TB, installed in the laptop's M.2 slots.

Can the 128 GB DDR5 5600 MHz memory be upgraded later, or are all slots populated?

The 128 GB kit uses two 64 GB modules in dual-channel configuration; remaining slots depend on the mainboard layout, which is not detailed here.
