ProcessorIntel Core Ultra 9 processor 290HX Plus; Intel AI Boost NPU MSIIntel 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.

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.
