18" UHD+ 240Hz Mini LED display

The 18-inch panel delivers a 3840 x 2400 resolution at a 240 Hz refresh rate using Mini LED backlighting. This combination targets competitive gamers and content creators who need both high pixel density and smooth motion clarity in a single mobile form factor.

Intel Core Ultra 9 290HX Plus 24-core processor

The CPU provides 24 cores with a 2.7 GHz base clock and a maximum turbo frequency of 5.5 GHz, supported by 36 MB of L3 cache. This specification determines whether the system can sustain heavy multi-threaded workloads such as 3D rendering, compilation or simultaneous streaming and gaming without throttling.

Gelid GC Extreme thermal compound

The builder applies Gelid GC Extreme on the CPU and GPU to lower operating temperatures under sustained load. Storage is configured as two 4 TB PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe drives totalling 8 TB, while 96 GB of DDR5 5600 MHz memory runs in dual-channel mode for high-bandwidth multitasking.

Questions about this item

What does the 5.5 GHz max turbo frequency mean for sustained workloads on the Core Ultra 9 290HX Plus?

The 24-core processor can reach 5.5 GHz on single threads; Gelid GC Extreme thermal compound helps maintain higher clocks longer by moving heat away from the CPU and GPU dies more efficiently than stock paste.

How does the PCIe 4.0 x4 interface affect the 8 TB NVMe storage in daily use?

Each 4 TB drive runs at PCIe 4.0 x4 speeds, so large game installs, project files and OS boot complete at the full throughput the Gen4 controller allows.

Will the 15.91 by 12.11 inch chassis with 0.94 to 1.26 inch height fit in a typical 18-inch laptop sleeve?

The footprint matches an 18-class chassis; most sleeves sized for 18-inch models accommodate the 15.91 x 12.11 inch dimensions and the tapered 0.94-1.26 inch profile.
