It features the world&#8217;s first laptop-based 18&#8243; 4K 200 Hz display and Thunderbolt 5 along with up to 64GB 5600MHz RAM, 4TB SSD, and GeForce RTX 4090 (16GB GDDR6 VRAM). These features, along with the Intel Core i9-14900HX provide true desktop-level power. It&#8217;s relatively thin, but quite heavy at 6.8 lbs.
