When is a laptop more than a laptop? When it's a "desktop replacement," a class of machine that packs the most powerful components available into a portable (if hefty) chassis. The MSI Titan 18 HX is a perfect example, built around the formidable combination of an Intel Core Ultra 9 processor and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 mobile GPU.
Those top-tier parts power an impressive 18-inch UHD+ Mini LED display, a bright, color-accurate screen with a 120Hz refresh rate that’s ideal for both high-end gaming and professional creative work.
