Inside the RTX 5090 Gaming Laptop
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 Laptop GPU at up to 175W
The headline component is the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 Laptop GPU with 24GB of GDDR7 VRAM. In this model it runs at up to 175W Maximum Graphics Power, which makes it a much stronger option than lower-powered RTX 5090 laptop configurations. DLSS 4 support helps lift frame rates in compatible games, while the large VRAM pool suits high-resolution textures, ray tracing and AI models.
Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX Processor
The Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX is a flagship 24-core mobile processor designed for demanding gaming and professional workloads. It delivers strong performance for multitasking, compiling, rendering, simulation and CPU-heavy applications, and it pairs with the RTX 5090 to create a balanced high-end system for both gaming and workstation use.
32GB DDR5 Memory with Upgrade Path
This configuration ships with 32GB of DDR5 RAM in a 2 x 16GB layout across two SODIMM slots, and the platform supports memory upgrades up to 96GB. If you need more for AI, virtual machines, engineering software or heavy multitasking, Elite Gaming PCs can provide a 64GB DDR5 upgrade using 2 x 32GB modules.
2TB NVMe SSD and Spare M.2 Slot
A fast 2TB PCIe Gen4 NVMe SSD gives you room for large games, AI models, development environments, applications, project files and video work. An additional M.2 slot compatible with PCIe Gen5 storage gives you an easy path to more capacity later.
17-Inch QHD+ 240Hz Display
The 17-inch QHD+ panel runs at 2560 x 1600 with a 240Hz refresh rate for smooth, responsive gameplay. Its 16:10 aspect ratio adds vertical workspace for timelines, code and tool panels, and its wide colour coverage makes it suitable for content creation and graphics work.
Ports, Connectivity and Portability
Connectivity includes Thunderbolt 5, USB-A, HDMI 2.1, 2.5Gb Ethernet, an SD card reader and headphone and microphone support, plus Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4 for fast wireless. At approximately 3kg, this RTX 5090 gaming laptop is a large desktop-replacement machine rather than an ultrabook, best suited to moving between desks, LAN events and client sites.
