MSI Titan 18 HX Dragon Edition (Draco Epic)
Collector / limited edition
A limited-run collector's Titan 18: the full 175 W RTX 5090, a 4K-class 240 Hz Mini-LED (HDR 1000) panel, 64 GB RAM expandable to 128 GB, dual Thunderbolt 5 and an acid-etched "Dragon Edition" chassis. The catch is the price — roughly $7,000 to $12,000 depending on config, versus around $3,999 for a standard Titan 18 with an RTX 5080. You are paying a steep premium for largely cosmetic exclusivity on top of an already hot, heavy (~4.2 kg) flagship platform.
