16-inch QHD+ 240Hz display

The laptop uses a 16.0-inch IPS panel with a QHD+ resolution and a 240 Hz refresh rate. Thin bezels keep the frame compact while the 100% DCI-P3 coverage delivers accurate colour for creative work and gaming alike.

AMD Ryzen 9 8940HX and RTX 5070 Ti GPU

The system pairs an AMD Ryzen 9 8940HX processor with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Laptop GPU that carries 12GB of GDDR7 video memory. This combination targets enthusiasts who want high frame rates at QHD+ without moving to a larger desktop replacement chassis.

16GB DDR5 and 1TB NVMe SSD

Memory is supplied as a single 16GB DDR5 module and storage uses a 1TB NVMe drive in an M.2 2242 slot. The single-module layout leaves one slot open for expansion while the 2242 form factor limits future drive choices to shorter modules.

Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4 connectivity

Wireless networking relies on Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4 for low-latency links to routers and peripherals. The 90Wh lithium-polymer battery supports mobile use but the 5.95 lb weight means the machine is best suited to semi-portable setups rather than daily commuting.

Questions about this item

Will the 16GB of soldered DDR5 memory limit future upgrades?

The laptop ships with a single 16GB DDR5 module and one free slot, so you can add a second stick for dual-channel performance.

Does the 1TB NVMe drive leave room for a second SSD?

The chassis supports one M.2 2242 drive, so the included 1TB NVMe occupies the only slot; external storage is required for expansion.

What real-world gaming battery life can I expect from the 90Wh pack?

Light workloads reach several hours, but demanding titles on the 240Hz panel will drain the 90Wh battery in roughly two hours.
