ProcessorIntel Core i9-14900HX: 24 cores, 32 threads, 2.2 GHz, up to 5.8 GHz, 36 MB cache

HX-series chips are laptop processors that run at high power limits for gaming and content creation; in multi-core work the chassis cooling decides the result.

ASUS
Intel Core i9-14900HX: 24 cores (8 P + 16 E), 32 threads; P-core 2.2/5.8 GHz, E-core 1.6/4.1 GHz; 36 MB Intel Smart Cache; Intel HM770 chipset Lenovo
GraphicsNVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop GPU, 8 GB GDDR6; 2225 MHz at 140 W (2175 MHz boost + 50 MHz OC; 115 W + 25 W Dynamic Boost)

140 W is the maximum GPU power when Dynamic Boost borrows budget from the CPU: 25 W is added to the sustained 115 W depending on load balance. This laptop GPU is not the same product as the desktop RTX 4070.

ASUS
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 Laptop GPU, 12 GB GDDR6; 2280 MHz boost clock, 175 W TGP, 542 AI TOPS

175 W is the highest total graphics power Lenovo allows in this model; going above NVIDIA’s 60–150 W base range for the RTX 4080 Laptop GPU relies on Dynamic Boost 2.0. The desktop RTX 4080 is a different product.

Lenovo
DisplayROG Nebula Display: 16-inch, 2560 × 1600 (16:10), IPS-level, anti-glare; 240 Hz, 3 ms; 100% DCI-P3; G-Sync; Pantone Validated

240 Hz makes motion smoother when a game approaches 240 frames per second; G-Sync matches refresh to frame rate to reduce tearing. 100% DCI-P3 means a wide gamut covering the cinema colour space; Pantone validation refers to factory colour calibration.

ASUS
16-inch WQXGA (2560 × 1600) IPS, non-touch, 500 nits, anti-glare, 16:10, 1200:1, 100% DCI-P3, 240 Hz; DisplayHDR 400, Dolby Vision, G-SYNC, X-Rite factory calibration

DisplayHDR 400 is VESA’s entry-level HDR tier; it does not require local dimming, so HDR looks less striking than on OLED or Mini LED. 240 Hz and G-SYNC give smooth, tear-free motion in fast games. Lenovo notes that “IPS” may also cover similar panel types such as PLS, ADS and AHVA.

Lenovo
Graphics switchingMUX Switch + NVIDIA Advanced Optimus

The MUX connects the display directly to the RTX GPU to cut latency and performance loss in games; Advanced Optimus can switch without a restart.

Memory32 GB: 2 × 16 GB DDR5-5600 SO-DIMM, dual channel; up to 32 GB

Both slots are populated and ASUS lists 32 GB as the maximum for this model; the modules are not soldered. ASUS notes memory speed varies by CPU.

ASUS
1 × 16 GB DDR5-5600 SO-DIMM; two slots, dual-channel capable; up to 32 GB in Lenovo’s offering

This configuration ships with a single module, so memory runs single-channel until a matching module is added to the second slot. Lenovo’s 32 GB limit is based on the modules it has tested.

Lenovo
Storage2 TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 SSD; two M.2 PCIe slots in total

ASUS counts two M.2 PCIe slots including the used one; a second SSD can go in the other slot.

ASUS
2 × 1 TB M.2 2280 PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe SSD; two M.2 2280 PCIe 4.0 x4 slots (both used)

PCIe 4.0 x4 allows up to 8 GB/s in theory; real speed depends on the SSD. There is no card reader.

Lenovo
Ports1 × Thunderbolt 4 (40 Gbit/s, DisplayPort), 1 × USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C (10 Gbit/s, DisplayPort / power delivery / G-SYNC), 2 × USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A (10 Gbit/s), 1 × HDMI 2.1 FRL, 1 × RJ45, 3.5 mm audio

ASUS lists G-SYNC only for the USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C port, which also accepts charging from the 100 W USB-C adapter. HDMI 2.1 FRL allows high refresh rates at high resolution on compatible TVs and monitors.

ASUS
1 × Thunderbolt 4 / USB4 40 Gbit/s (DisplayPort 1.4), 1 × USB-C 10 Gbit/s (Lenovo PD 140 W, DisplayPort 1.4), 4 × USB-A 5 Gbit/s (one Always On), 1 × HDMI 2.1 (up to 8K/60 Hz), 1 × RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet, 3.5 mm audio

140 W charging over USB-C needs Lenovo’s own adapter; other adapters may deliver less. Up to four independent displays including the internal one are supported; Lenovo lists up to 4K/60 Hz for external outputs. Ethernet is 1 Gbit/s, not 2.5G, and supports Wake-on-LAN.

ASUS lists a 100 W USB-C adapter in the box as well; the 280 W brick is for full performance. Included adapters and accessories can vary by country.

ASUS
99.9 Wh lithium-ion, Super Rapid Charge; 330 W slim-tip GaN adapter

Lenovo says Super Rapid Charge reaches 30% in 10 minutes, 70% in 30 minutes and 100% in 80 minutes. 99.9 Wh sits just under the usual airline battery limit. Lenovo quotes 10.4 hours of 1080p video playback at 150 nits.
