Minimum Requirements
Recommended Requirements
What's Inside?
Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX
- Intel Core Ultra series is the newer, stronger, and more efficient Core i series - and enhanced with AI.
- The '9' CPU is a true powerhouse, sometimes considered overkill, but it gets the job done fast and without fuss. It's built for demanding tasks like live-streaming, video editing, and AI model training.
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090
- The 5090 is the most powerful GPU available, handling any game at max settings. It runs hot and is found only in premium builds. Very pricey.
- The 5000 series the latest generation of NVIDIA GPUs. Interestingly, they're only an average of ~9% more performant than last generation.
32 GB of RAM
- 32 GB is heading to become the new standard, but isn't as widely available as you'd think. It's ideal for power users, video editing, multitasking (like running VMs), and moderate AI training.
2 TB SSD
- Anywhere between 2 and 4 TB is for those who know they need a fair amount of storage. Games can exceed 100 GB, and pictures and videos are getting larger as well.
- The modern SSD is around 20-40x faster than conventional hard drives, and far more physically resilient.
18.0" Mini LED, (2.5K+ / WQXGA)
- 17" and 18" screens offer the best visibility for gaming or productivity but are somewhat bulky.
- Mini LED screens are very bright and offer high contrast, though not as vibrant as OLED.
