MSI Raider 16 Max HX laptop review: Faster than the Titan 18 HX

Name: MSI Raider 16 Max HX B2WJ
Brand: MSI

No performance compromises.

The new Raider 16 Max HX packs an insane level of power even when compared to most larger 18-inch gaming laptops, but be prepared for a somewhat thick and heavy system.

Verdict — Performance Of An 18-inch Gaming Laptop In A 16-inch Screen Size

The Raider 16 Max HX may be smaller than the massive Raider 18 or Titan 18, but it still prioritizes performance before anything else. The Arrow Lake-HX CPU and 175 W GPU are some of the fastest options available regardless of laptop size to make the Raider 16 Max HX one of the fastest solutions for gaming in the market. The glossy OLED display is equally as impressive if you can mitigate the inevitable glare while the subpanel is a practical feature we would love to see on all MSI gaming laptops moving forward.

The extreme performance comes with costs. Most notably, the Raider 16 Max HX is chunkier and heavier than many other 16-inch gaming laptops including the already large Alienware 16X Aurora. The plastic chassis doesn't feel as luxurious as the Alienware 16 Area-51 despite them costing around the same while the lack of G-Sync and Advanced Optimus is difficult to forgive at this price range. Users who like to travel and game on-the-move may find more value from lighter and more portable 16-inch solutions like the MSI Stealth 16 or Razer Blade 16 which come with similar RTX 5090 graphics running at slightly slower performance levels.

Pros

+ subpanel for easy access to M.2 SSDs and SODIMM slots

+ decent battery life considering the size and performance

+ high quality 240 Hz QHD+ OLED panel comes standard

+ one of the fastest mobile CPUs in the market

+ DisplayHDR1000 support

Cons

- no touchscreen, G-Sync, or Advanced Optimus

- very heavy even for the category

- very warm CPU temperatures

- extreme fingerprint magnet

- very glossy display

Price and Availability

The MSI Raider 16 Max HX is now shipping on Amazon for up to $4300 USD if configured with the GeForce RTX 5090 GPU.

Potential Competitors in Comparison

The MSI Raider 16 Max HX was unveiled at CES 2026 as the first 16-inch laptop in the Raider series. It also happens to be one of the first MSI gaming laptops with an OLED display instead of the usual IPS or Mini-LED. Much like with the Raider 18 series, the Raider 16 Max HX represents one of the fastest laptops that MSI has to offer.

Our test unit is the highest-end configuration with the Arrow Lake Core Ultra 9 290HX Plus CPU and 175 W GeForce RTX 5090 GPU for approximately $4400 USD. All SKUs at the moment ship with the same CPU and QHD+ 240 Hz OLED glossy display but may start with the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti instead.

Competitors include other high-end or flagship 16-inch gaming laptops like the Dell Alienware 16 Area-51, Asus Zephyrus Duo, or Razer Blade 16.

Case

The outer lid is smooth matte metal while the base is largely plastic. While not terrible by any means, surfaces flex and don't feel as rigid as competing models like the Alienware 16 Area-51 or Razer Blade 16. We expected a stronger or more premium chassis design considering the high asking price.

Maintenance

The bottom panel includes a subpanel for easier access to the two M.2 2280 SSD slots (one PCIe5 plus one PCIe4) and two DDR5 SODIMM slots. Otherwise, the entire bottom panel is still relatively easy to remove with a standard Phillips screwdriver.

Sustainability

MSI makes no mention of recycled materials used during manufacturing of the Raider 16 Max HX. The packaging is plastic-free.

Accessories And Warranty

There are no extras in the box other than the AC adapter and paperwork. The usual one-year limited manufacturer warranty applies if purchased in the US.

Input Devices

The keyboard and clickpad on the Raider 16 Max HX are identical to what is available on the Crosshair 16 HX even though the latter is a lower-end gaming model from MSI. On the Raider, however, the keys have per-key RGB lighting for more user customization whereas the Crosshair has more limited RGB zones.

Identical keyboard and clickpad (~13 x 8.3 cm) as on the Crosshair 16 HX

Display

Sharp RGB subpixels from the glossy overlay

MSI is beginning to turn more towards OLED instead of IPS or Mini-LED for many of its gaming laptops. For the Raider 16 Max HX, the 240 Hz QHD+ OLED panel is crisp with perfect black levels, accurate P3 colors, DisplayHDR1000 support, and no "halo" effect commonly found on competing mini-LED options.

The two most notable drawbacks to the display are its very glossy overlay and lack of G-Sync support in contrast to most older MSI gaming laptops where matte panels were standard. Be prepared to fight glare when gaming in bright indoor conditions.

Display Response Times

ℹ

Display response times show how fast the screen is able to change from one color to the next. Slow response times can lead to afterimages and can cause moving objects to appear blurry (ghosting). Gamers of fast-paced 3D titles should pay special attention to fast response times.

↔ Response Time Black to White
0.39 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↗ 0.21 ms rise
0.39 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↘ 0.18 ms fall
The screen shows very fast response rates in our tests and should be very well suited for fast-paced gaming. In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.1 (minimum) to 240 (maximum) ms. » 0 % of all devices are better. This means that the measured response time is better than the average of all tested devices (19.9 ms).
↔ Response Time 50% Grey to 80% Grey

The screen shows very fast response rates in our tests and should be very well suited for fast-paced gaming. In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.165 (minimum) to 636 (maximum) ms. » 0 % of all devices are better. This means that the measured response time is better than the average of all tested devices (31.1 ms).

Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)

ℹ

To dim the screen, some notebooks will simply cycle the backlight on and off in rapid succession - a method called Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) . This cycling frequency should ideally be undetectable to the human eye. If said frequency is too low, users with sensitive eyes may experience strain or headaches or even notice the flickering altogether.

Screen flickering / PWM detected

1440 Hz
Amplitude: 35 %

≤ 100 % brightness setting

The display backlight flickers at 1440 Hz (worst case, e.g., utilizing PWM) Flickering detected at a brightness setting of 100 % and below. There should be no flickering or PWM above this brightness setting.

The frequency of 1440 Hz is quite high, so most users sensitive to PWM should not notice any flickering.

In comparison: 52 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 7816 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 343500) Hz was measured.

Performance

Testing Conditions

We set MSI Center to Extreme Performance mode and discrete graphics mode prior to running the benchmarks below.

Processor

The Core Ultra 9 290HX Plus is essentially an overclocked Core Ultra 9 275HX with the exact same cache sizes and number of cores. Users can expect roughly 15 percent faster CPU performance when compared to the MSI Crosshair 16 HX. More interestingly, our MSI would run up to 10 percent faster than the Dell Alienware 16X Aurora with the exact same Core Ultra 9 290HX Plus processor as shown by the comparison charts below.

Gaming Performance

The mobile GeForce RTX 5090 arguably pairs better with a native 1600p display instead of 4K when considering that the desktop version can be two times more powerful. Keep in mind that the system must be set to Apex mode or Cooler Boost mode to fully exploit the advertised 175 W TGP.

Emissions

System Noise

Fan noise is intimately tied to the five power profile settings in order from lowest to highest performance: Eco, Balanced, Extreme Performance, Apex, and Cooler Boost. When running Cyberpunk 2077 on these profiles, fan noise tends to stabilize at 36.2 dB(A), 47.5 dB(A), 51.1 dB(A), 57 dB(A), and 60.2 dB(A), respectively. Pulsing behavior is generally minimal when set to Balanced mode or lower. Even so, 51.1 dB(A) when gaming on Extreme Performance mode is slightly quieter than competing models like the Lenovo Legion 7 16IAX10 or Razer Blade 16.

Stress Test

The CPU would boost to 4.5 GHz, 215 W, and 105 C for approximately a minute after initiating Prime95 stress. It would then fall to 3.9 GHz and ~152 W to maintain a more manageable core temperature of 96 C. The Alienware 16 Area-51, which ships with the exact same CPU as our MSI, would also stabilize at the high 90 C range when under similar conditions to suggest that the Core Ultra 9 290HX Plus is one of the warmest-running mobile CPUs in the market.

Note the steadily increasing average GPU clock rates when changing to faster power profiles as shown by the screenshots and table below.

Energy Management

Power Consumption

Power consumption is predictably very high considering the hardware involved. Running Cyberpunk 2077 on Extreme Performance mode is roughly 28 percent more demanding than the Razer Blade 16 even though the latter comes with the same RTX 5090 GPU. The large discrepancy can be attributed to the Arrow Lake-HX CPU when compared to the slower but much more efficient Panther Lake-H series.

We're able to record a temporary maximum draw of 405 W when from large (~18.8 x 8.8 x 3.4 cm) 400 W AC adapter.

Consumption would spike to 285 W when initiating Prime95 stress and it would remain relatively stable for excellent Turbo Boost sustainability
