Developed by Eurocom, a pioneer in high-performance portable computing, the customized Raptor X18 is engineered for extreme gamers and hardcore enthusiasts who demand nothing short of total domination.

Powered by the latest Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX processor and supercharged by the

Unmatched Gaming Power

At the heart of the customized Raptor X18 is the Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX processor with 24 cores, 24 threads, and a massive 36MB cache - this CPU is built for serious multitasking and extreme overclocking potential.

Extreme gamers have a choice between two of the most powerful laptop GPUs ever:
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 (24GB GDDR7, 680 Tensor AI Cores) – The king of laptop GPUs, delivering real-time ray tracing, AI-enhanced visuals, and sky-high FPS for buttery-smooth gameplay—even at 4K ultra settings. Imagine dropping into Warzone or exploring the massive universe of Starfield at ultra settings with no frame drops—this GPU can handle it all.
