ProcessorIntel 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		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 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		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; 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.

Display18-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		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
Memory96 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		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
Storage6 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		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
Thunderbolt2 × 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.
