MSI unveiled its 40th-anniversary flagship laptop at Computex 2026, and we got to see its impressive design up close. The MSI Titan 18 HX Dragon Edition Draco Epic limited edition laptop certainly lives up to its name, thanks to a physical design with impressive metal etching and art inspired by the Draco constellation, including anodized color embedded directly into the metal chassis.
It's a limited-edition design that comes in a special collector's edition bundle and packaging that includes a gaming mouse, a large mouse mat, and a commemorative coin. Yes, it's a stunning creation, but also a flagship gaming laptop packing some of the most impressive mobile hardware currently available. From a CPU and GPU perspective, it features the 24-core Intel Core Ultra 9 290HX Plus processor and the GeForce RTX 5090 Laptop GPU with 24GB of GDDR7 memory.
The MSI Titan 18 HX Dragon Edition Draco Epic is also on the larger side, with the 18 in the naming referring to its 18-inch 4K Mini LED display that sports a 240 Hz refresh rate and 100% DCI-P3 color accuracy, with VESA DisplayHDR 1000 Certification. The MSI Titan 18 HX Dragon Edition Draco Epic is also built to unlock the full potential of its hardware, with vapor chamber cooling and a total power rating of 270W thanks to MSI's OverBoost technology.
And it gets even more impressive on the storage side, with four SSD slots supporting a RAID configuration (for its PCIe Gen 5 and Gen 4 slots) that can deliver up to 18,000 MB/s read speeds. Throw in 48GB of dual-channel DDR5 memory, 4TB of internal storage, a mechanical keyboard co-developed with SteelSeries, dual Thunderbolt 5 ports, WiFi 7, 2.5G Ethernet, and an RGB-lit haptic touchpad, and yeah, it's a beast worthy of the Dragon branding.
