Questions about this item

Does the 18-inch UHD+ 240Hz Mini LED panel cover the full 3840 x 2400 resolution at 240 Hz without scaling?

Yes, the native panel is 3840 x 2400 and runs at 240 Hz, so every pixel is driven at the advertised refresh rate.

Will the 128 GB DDR5 5600 MHz kit run at its rated speed or downclock?

The memory is installed as 2 x 64 GB DDR5 5600 MHz dual-channel; actual operating speed follows the platform capability of the Ultra 9 290HX Plus.

How much cooler does the Gelid GC Extreme thermal compound keep the CPU and GPU under load?

The upgraded TIM lowers system temperatures to reduce throttling during sustained CPU and GPU intensive workloads.
