The Intel Core Ultra 9 290HX brings 24 cores and 24 threads with boost speeds up to 5.5GHz, plus 40MB of L2 and 36MB of L3 cache. It is built for demanding multi-threaded work such as gaming while streaming, rendering and compiling. An integrated NPU with up to 13 TOPS supports compatible AI-assisted Windows features.
Graphics are handled by the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Laptop GPU with 8GB of GDDR7 memory. Support for DLSS 4 and ray tracing helps deliver high frame rates and realistic lighting in supported games, making this a capable RTX 5070 laptop for both play and GPU-accelerated creative apps.
The display is a highlight. A 2560 × 1600 OLED panel delivers deep contrast and rich colour, while the 240Hz refresh rate keeps fast-paced games smooth. NVIDIA G-SYNC synchronises the panel with the GPU to reduce tearing and stutter, and 500-nit brightness with an anti-glare surface keeps the image clear.
Wi-Fi 7 and Gigabit Ethernet cover fast online play, while Thunderbolt 4 connects high-speed docks, storage and displays. HDMI, two USB-A ports and a USB-C port take care of monitors, headsets and controllers.
With a 280W power adapter in the box, the laptop has the power it needs to drive the Core Ultra 9 and RTX 5070 under heavy gaming and creative workloads. Every configuration keeps the same processor, graphics and 240Hz OLED display, so you only decide how much memory and storage you need.
