SpecificationLenovo Legion 7i Gen 10 (16IAX10, 83KY000TCF)MSI Titan 18 HX AI A2XWJG-070
Release year20252025
ProcessorIntel Core Ultra 7 255HX; 20 cores (8 performance + 12 efficiency), 20 threads, up to 5.2 GHz, 30 MB Intel Smart Cache

This configuration also includes the Intel AI Boost NPU rated at up to 13 TOPS; the NPU is designed to run AI tasks at lower power than the graphics card.

Lenovo
Intel Core Ultra 9 285HX; 24 cores, up to 5.5 GHz, 36 MB cache

MSI says OverBoost Ultra can allocate up to 270 W combined to the CPU and GPU; the actual figure depends on the application.

MSI
GraphicsNVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Laptop GPU, 8 GB GDDR7; 2497 MHz boost, 115 W TGP, 572 AI TOPS

TGP is the power limit the graphics chip can use in this laptop; the same GPU runs slower in lower-powered chassis. The graphics chip is soldered and cannot be replaced. Lenovo also offers the RTX 5070 Laptop GPU in this chassis at 115 W.

Lenovo
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 Laptop GPU; 24 GB GDDR7

The laptop version does not share the desktop RTX 5090’s configuration or power, so its performance is not the same either.

MSI
Display16-inch WQXGA (2560 × 1600) OLED, 16:10; 165 Hz, 500 nits typical / 1100 nits HDR peak, 100% DCI-P3, 1,000,000:1 contrast, glossy surface, DisplayHDR True Black 1000, Dolby Vision, G-SYNC

165 Hz means the panel can show up to 165 frames per second; G-SYNC matches the refresh to the GPU’s frame rate to reduce tearing. 1100 nits is a peak value for small areas in HDR content; everyday SDR brightness is 500 nits. The panel is factory-calibrated with X-Rite and is not a touchscreen.

Lenovo
18-inch, 16:10, 3840 × 2400 (UHD+), 120 Hz, Mini LED, anti-glare

MSI lists VESA DisplayHDR 1000 certification and about 100% DCI-P3 colour coverage. Mini LED splits the backlight into zones, deepening blacks in dark scenes, though a faint halo can appear around bright objects.

MSI
Memory32 GB (2 × 16 GB) DDR5-5600 SO-DIMM; 2 slots, dual-channel

Memory is not soldered. The highest capacity Lenovo has tested for this platform is 32 GB; both slots are filled from the factory, so an upgrade means replacing the modules.

Lenovo
96 GB DDR5-6400 (2 × 48 GB); 2 SO-DIMM slots, 96 GB maximum

This configuration ships at MSI’s stated maximum; both slots are filled, so memory cannot be added, only swapped.

MSI
Storage1 TB M.2 2242 PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe SSD; 2 × M.2 2280 PCIe 4.0 x4 slots

The slots are 2280-length, so a second SSD can be added. PCIe 4.0 x4 offers a theoretical 8 GB/s of bandwidth; actual speed depends on the installed SSD.

Lenovo
6 TB total: 1 × 2 TB PCIe 5.0 and 2 × 2 TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSDs

MSI lists four M.2 slots: one PCIe 5.0 x4 and three PCIe 4.0 x4. This SKU ships with three drives; MSI mentions Super RAID 5 support.

MSI
Ports1 × Thunderbolt 4 / USB4 40 Gbps USB-C (USB PD 95–100 W, DisplayPort 2.1), 1 × USB-C 10 Gbps (USB PD 95–100 W, DisplayPort 2.1), 2 × USB-A 5 Gbps (one always on), 1 × HDMI 2.1 (up to 8K 60 Hz), SD card reader, 3.5 mm headset jack, slim-tip power input

Up to 3 external displays are supported alongside the built-in panel: HDMI up to 8K 60 Hz, USB-C up to 4K 60 Hz. Both USB-C ports accept 95–100 W USB-PD charging; Lenovo’s 140 W USB-C protocol works only with its own adapter. There is no wired Ethernet.

GPU power limit—Up to 175 W with Dynamic Boost; boost clock up to 2,160 MHz

Dynamic Boost shifts spare power to the GPU when the processor draws less; 175 W is the upper limit for this laptop GPU.

MSI
Thunderbolt—2 × Thunderbolt 5 (DisplayPort 2.1, up to 140 W charging over USB-PD 3.1)

USB-C charging is capped at 140 W; MSI recommends a 65–140 W USB-PD adapter. Full performance needs the included 400 W adapter.
