- Is the 300Hz screen worth it over a 165Hz panel?
- Yes if you play fast shooters or esports titles where frame rates run high. The 3ms response time and 100% DCI-P3 coverage also make it useful for color work, not just gaming.
- Can I upgrade the RAM and storage?
- Yes. The laptop supports up to 64 GB of DDR5 and has two M.2 slots, so you can add a second SSD alongside the 1 TB drive.
- How does the RTX 5070 handle 2560x1600 gaming?
- It is built for high frame rates at this resolution in most current titles, especially with DLSS. The most demanding games will need settings tuned down to keep the 300Hz panel fed.
- Does it have Thunderbolt?
- No. It uses USB 4 at 40Gbps on two ports, which covers fast data transfers and external displays but is not Thunderbolt-certified.
- What is in the box?
- The laptop with its power adapter and standard documentation. A mouse and headset are not included.
- Is it too heavy to carry to class or a LAN event?
- At 5.51 lbs it is manageable in a backpack but noticeably heavier than thin-and-light 16-inch laptops. Plan on the power brick coming with you.
