Is 165 Hz overkill for a gaming laptop? If you asked Eluktronics, that’d be a resounding “no.” The Delaware-based premium performance PC manufacturer has launched the MECH-15 G3 QHD, MAX-15 QHD, and MAX-17, which happen to be the world’s first gaming laptops with QHD (1440p) 165 Hz displays.
Aside from the bigger screen size on the MAX-17 model, all three laptops appear to have very similar hardware configurations. They leverage an Intel i7-10870H CPUs (with Liquid Metal), NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER, 16 GB of DDR4 RAM, and a 1 TB PCIe SSD.
“With QHD 165Hz, you can expect the most Crisp and Snappy experience out of any laptop on the market,” Eluktronics wrote. “You no longer have to choose between appearance and performance. We’ve brought this game changing display to our three most popular laptop models.”
