ProcessorIntel Core Ultra 9 275HX; 24 cores (8 P + 16 E), 24 threads, 36 MB L3, up to 5.4 GHz

The chip also includes an Intel AI Boost NPU, a block set aside for running AI tasks at low power.

MSI
Intel Core i7-13650HX: 14 cores (6 P + 8 E), 2.6 GHz, up to 4.9 GHz, 24 MB cache ASUS
GraphicsNVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 Laptop GPU; 16 GB GDDR7; up to 2287 MHz

The RTX 5080 Laptop GPU is not the same product as the desktop RTX 5080 card; its power limit and cooling conditions differ.

MSI
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop GPU, 8 GB GDDR6; 2420 MHz at 130 W (2370 MHz boost + 50 MHz OC; 105 W + 25 W Dynamic Boost)

130 W is the maximum GPU power when Dynamic Boost shifts budget from the CPU; 25 W is added to the sustained 105 W depending on load balance. This laptop GPU is not the same product as the desktop RTX 4060.

ASUS
GPU power limitUp to 175 W with Dynamic Boost; up to 240 W combined CPU + GPU with MSI OverBoost Ultra

MSI notes the figure may vary by scenario. 175 W is the upper limit NVIDIA allows for the RTX 5080 Laptop GPU; the card draws less in lower power modes and on battery.

Display16-inch QHD+ 2560 × 1600 (16:10), 240 Hz, IPS-level panel; 100% DCI-P3 (typical)

MSI describes the panel as "IPS-level", which does not necessarily mean it is an IPS panel. 240 Hz makes motion smoother in fast games, provided the game produces high frame rates.

MSI
16-inch WUXGA (1920 × 1200) 16:10 IPS-level, anti-glare; 165 Hz; sRGB 100%, Adobe 75.35%; G-Sync

165 Hz means motion at up to 165 frames per second in suitable games; G-Sync matches refresh to frame rate to reduce tearing. The colour gamut suits sRGB content; it is not a wide-gamut panel.

ASUS
Memory32 GB (2 × 16 GB) DDR5; two SO-DIMM slots, up to 96 GB, up to DDR5-6400

The MSI USA table lists the installed modules as DDR5-5600; the 6400 in the spec sheet is the top speed the platform supports. The slots take replaceable modules.

MSI
DDR5 SO-DIMM, two slots, dual channel; capacity depends on SKU

The modules are not soldered and can be upgraded. According to ASUS, memory speed depends on the processor.

ASUS
Storage2 TB NVMe PCIe Gen4 SSD; two M.2 slots (one Gen4, one Gen5)

MSI says storage upgrades should go through a service centre. The Gen5 slot can give higher sequential speeds than Gen4 with a compatible SSD.

MSI
PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 SSD; two M.2 PCIe slots in total (one used)

Capacity can be 512 GB, 1 TB or 2 TB depending on SKU; a second SSD can be added in the free slot.

ASUS
USB-C / Thunderbolt2 × Thunderbolt 5 (DisplayPort and Power Delivery 3.1)

The Thunderbolt 5 ports carry data, an external display and charging over one cable with compatible devices. The laptop reaches full performance on its 330 W adapter; USB-C charging runs at lower power.
