MSI Crosshair 18 HX AI A2XWGXKG-096IN 18″ Ultra 9 275HX 32GB 1TB RTX 5070 240Hz Gaming Laptop
The MSI Crosshair 18 HX AI (A2XWGXKG-096IN) is an 18-inch gaming laptop with the Intel® Core™ Ultra 9 275HX and an NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 5070 Laptop GPU carrying 12 GB of GDDR7. The GPU runs at up to 115 W, and MSI OverBoost lets the CPU and GPU share up to 170 W together. Crosshair is the line that replaced MSI’s Sword series.
The screen is the big draw: 18 inches, QHD+ (2560 × 1600) at 240 Hz, with 100% DCI-P3 colour. It comes with 32 GB of DDR5 across both slots (up to 96 GB supported) and a 1 TB SSD, with a second M.2 slot free for more storage. You also get Thunderbolt 4, HDMI 2.1, Gigabit LAN, a 24-zone RGB keyboard and a webcam shutter. It weighs 3.1 kg and runs on a 90 Wh battery with a 240 W charger, so it’s more of a desk machine than a carry-everywhere laptop.
MSI gives a 2-year on-site warranty on this model (on-site service in selected regions). It covers manufacturing defects, not physical, burn or liquid damage. Register the serial number at register.msi.com soon after purchase, because the warranty depends on it. You can check the laptop and pick it up at our Koramangala store, open Mon–Sun 10:30 AM to 9 PM. Call +91 9739221133.
