Vector 16 laptop with Core Ultra 9 275HX

The Vector 16 is a 16 inch gaming laptop built around an Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX processor with 24 cores and a maximum turbo frequency of 5.4 GHz. It pairs that CPU with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 laptop GPU equipped with 16 GB of GDDR7 memory. The system includes 64 GB of DDR5 memory and a 1 TB PCIe SSD, running Windows 11 Home out of the box.

240 Hz QHD+ display and Thunderbolt 5 connectivity

The 16 inch panel delivers a 2560 by 1600 resolution at a 240 Hz refresh rate for sharp, fluid motion in fast-paced titles. Two Thunderbolt 5 Type-C ports provide high-speed data and display output, alongside two USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A ports, an HDMI 2.1 port, RJ45 LAN, a combo audio jack, a DC-in jack and an SD card reader. Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth handle wireless duties.

Sustained performance with 24 core CPU and RTX 5080

The 24 core processor maintains high clock speeds across extended workloads, supported by a 36 MB L3 cache that reduces latency during long rendering or compile sessions. The RTX 5080 GPU with its 16 GB GDDR7 frame buffer sustains high frame rates in demanding scenes without throttling. The chassis measures 14.05 by 11.18 by 1.12 inches and weighs 5.95 pounds, providing thermal headroom for prolonged heavy use.
