Product description
Practical tips
The 18-inch Mini LED display gives this Predator a large canvas for gaming and creative work. Its dual-mode display lets you choose 4K at 120Hz for detailed visuals or FHD at 240Hz for a higher-refresh experience. The Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX processor and GeForce RTX 5090 Laptop GPU bring powerful hardware to demanding games and workloads.
For a desktop-style setup, connect a monitor or other peripherals through the laptop’s ports, or use Wi-Fi 7 for a wireless connection. The built-in SD card reader is handy when transferring media, while the backlit per-key RGB keyboard and numeric keypad support both game control and everyday input. Ethernet is also available for a wired network connection.
Benefits
The combination of an Intel Core Ultra 9 processor and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 Laptop GPU is suited to intensive gaming, rendering and creator tasks. The graphics card has 24GB of GDDR7 memory, while 64GB of DDR5 RAM supports multitasking across demanding applications. For users who need one machine for play and project work, that mix keeps processing, graphics and memory capacity together in a single laptop.
The display’s two refresh options make it easier to prioritize fine detail or smoother motion for different games and activities. A 4TB PCIe SSD provides substantial space for a large game library, media files and active projects. Wi-Fi 7 and Ethernet offer wireless and wired ways to connect, and Thunderbolt 5 and HDMI 2.1 provide options for connecting displays and accessories. Compared with a smaller-screen gaming laptop, the 18-inch format gives games and creative timelines more viewing area, this model pairs that larger format with a high-refresh display and dedicated graphics.
