MSI Raider 16 HX · B2WH-270MA

Core Ultra 9 and RTX 5070 Ti,
in 2.45 kg.

A 24-core Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX, a 12 GB GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Laptop and 32 GB of DDR5: this configuration is built for gaming in QHD+ at a high refresh rate as much as for editing and 3D software, which load both the processor and the graphics card.

215 W for the processor and graphics card

The RTX 5070 Ti Laptop has 12 GB of GDDR7 and reaches up to 140 W with Dynamic Boost, at a 2,220 MHz boost clock. When a task loads both chips at once — a recent game in QHD+, a 3D render, a video export —, MSI OverBoost technology allows up to 215 W for the processor and graphics card combined. The Core Ultra 9 275HX brings together 8 performance cores and 16 efficient cores, reaches 5.4 GHz and integrates a dedicated AI processing unit (NPU). A 280 W power adapter supplies the whole system.

A display designed for gaming and for imaging

16-inch IPS-Level panel, 2560 x 1600 pixels

The 16-inch panel displays 2560 x 1600 pixels in 16:10 format, which gives more usable height than a 16:9 screen for an editing timeline or a long document. Its 240 Hz keeps up with competitive games, and its 100% coverage of the DCI-P3 colour space, as a typical value, serves photo retouching and video grading.

Room to grow without changing machines

The 32 GB supplied fill both DDR5 slots, as two 16 GB modules; the motherboard accepts up to 128 GB of DDR5-6400 by replacing them. For storage, the 1 TB NVMe PCIe Gen4 SSD uses only one of the two M.2 slots, one of which supports PCIe Gen5: a second drive for the game library can be added without touching the system.

The whole desk plugs into it

The two Thunderbolt 4 ports carry the DisplayPort signal and accept Power Delivery 3.1 charging; the HDMI 2.1 output drives a monitor up to 4K at 120 Hz or 8K at 60 Hz. Three USB-A 3.2 Gen 2 ports remain for the keyboard, mouse and an external drive. On the network side: 2.5 Gbit/s Ethernet by cable, Killer BE1750 Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4 wirelessly, plus an SD Express card reader to empty a camera's card.

The 91.8 Wh battery has four cells.
