The ThinkPad X1 Extreme introduces a 15-inch form factor to the X1 series and is the first to include NVIDIA discrete graphics.

It is ideal for data intensive workloads; video and photo editing; graphics rendering; and virtual and mixed reality applications. Compatible with leading headsets, users can enjoy low latency immersive experiences, making it a strong performer in multiple fields such as education, training, healthcare and modelling. NVIDIA GeForce® 1050Ti graphics let users can also sneak in time with their favorite games.
The ThinkPad X1 Extreme is incredibly tough too. Four layers of reinforced carbon fiber form the top cover structure including a core layer that absorbs shocks. And with so much power on tap generating extra heat, a new aluminum alloy bottom cover keeps it running cool by dissipating the heat more efficiently.
Work Hard
Work spaces can be anywhere from home to office, coffee shop to airplane. Weight is a critical consideration when moving between environments. Starting at just 3.76 pounds (1.7kg), the X1 Extreme is 12 percent lighter than its popular cousin, the ThinkPad T580, however users do not want to compromise on performance to get a thin and light package.
The combination of 8th generation Intel® CoreTM processors, including the six-core Intel® CoreTM i9 coming soon1, up to 64GB of memory and dual PCIe SSD storage option with Raid 0/1 capability brings the highest performance ever seen on a X1 Series.

Casual gamers will relish the recipe of a stunning 15.6-inch UHD display, a whole new world of sound with Dolby Atmos® through supported headphones and smoother gameplay with the NVIDIA GeForce® 1050Ti MaxQ discrete graphics.
What’s more, that stunning display includes support for Dolby VisionTM HDR enabled content allowing users to relax in front of their favorite show or movie from their chosen streaming provider.
The new X1 Extreme isn’t just a high-performance workhorse, it transcends the gap between work and play and offers prosumers a smart laptop that delivers on all fronts.
