This is Next-Generation Elite Performance.
This is not an upgrade; it’s a new standard. The Predator Helios Neo 16 is one of the first laptops engineered with the brand-new Intel® Core™ Ultra 7 255HX processor. With 16 cores and 24 threads, this is a desktop-class “HX” chip designed to handle elite gaming, 4K streaming, and heavy-duty creative workloads all at once.
The RTX 5070 8GB: A New Era of Graphics
The game has changed. This laptop is powered by the next-generation NVIDIA® GeForce RTX 5070 GPU. Built on the new “Blackwell” architecture, it features a massive 8GB of GDDR7 VRAM. This is double the memory of previous 70-series cards, giving you the power to run modern AAA games at 1600p Ultra settings with AI-powered DLSS 4.
See More, Win More, Create Better
This is not a standard 1440p screen. The Helios 16 boasts a stunning 16-inch WQXGA (2560×1600) display.
- 16:10 Aspect Ratio: Taller, for more vertical screen space.
- 240Hz Refresh Rate: Elite-level smoothness for competitive gaming.
- 100% DCI-P3: Pro-grade colour accuracy for content creators.
- DDS (Dynamic Display Switch): Get every last frame by switching directly to the RTX 5070.
Pro-Ready for Work and Play
This machine is a “sleeper” workstation. It comes pre-loaded with Windows 11 Professional, giving you BitLocker encryption, Remote Desktop, and domain-join capabilities. Cooled by 5th Gen AeroBlade 3D fans and connected with Killer™ Wi-Fi 6E, it’s the perfect “Work-by-Day, Game-by-Night” laptop for a developer, engineer, or content creator.
Recommendation
PERFECTLY CONFIGURED, BUT READY FOR MORE:
This laptop comes with 16GB of DDR5-5600 RAM (2x 8GB). This is a great, high-speed dual-channel setup for gaming.

To unlock this machine’s true workstation potential, we STRONGLY recommend our 32GB (2x 16GB) DDR5 5600MHz upgrade. This is essential for 4K video editing, 3D rendering, or running multiple virtual machines.
