The Origin EVO16-S is a 16-inch boutique gaming laptop built by Origin PC, sold across two distinct hardware generations in 2019 and 2022. It was built for gamers who wanted desktop-class graphics in a portable chassis, without the compromises of a mainstream thin-and-light. Because Origin builds its laptops on configurable, high-end components rather than fixed budget specs, an EVO16-S in good condition holds resale value well after its release window, especially in configurations carrying a discrete RTX or Radeon GPU. Pick your processor, graphics card, and condition above to see a live cash offer. If you want the full breakdown of shipping, inspection, and payout before you commit, you can see how the process works, or head straight to the sell your gaming laptop page to compare it against other models.

Confirm you have the EVO16-S

Origin does not print a single model number on its laptops the way mainstream OEMs do, so the fastest way to confirm your exact build is through Windows. Press Windows key + R, type dxdiag, and check the listed processor and graphics adapter. For a fuller readout including motherboard and BIOS version, run msinfo32 instead. Cross-reference what you see against the two generations below.

2019 build (Intel & RTX 20-series)

  • Intel Core i7 (9th Gen) processor
  • NVIDIA RTX 2060 or RTX 2070 graphics
  • Sold through Origin PC's direct configurator

2022 build (AMD & Radeon)

  • AMD Ryzen 7 6800H processor
  • AMD Radeon RX 6650M graphics
  • Refreshed chassis revision from the 2019 model

Prefer a visual check? The 2019 Intel/RTX build and the 2022 AMD/Radeon build share a similar 16-inch chassis, so look at the rear I/O and keyboard deck lighting controls, which shifted slightly between revisions. The bottom panel sticker, where present, also lists the processor family even if the model number itself is missing.

Core hardware configurations

Processor

  • Intel Core i7 (9th Gen), paired with the 2019 chassis
  • AMD Ryzen 7 6800H, paired with the 2022 chassis

Graphics

  • NVIDIA RTX 2060 or RTX 2070 (2019 units)
  • AMD Radeon RX 6650M (2022 units)
  • Discrete GPU tier is the single biggest driver of resale value on this model

Memory & storage

  • Origin's gaming laptops typically use socketed DDR4 SO-DIMM memory rather than soldered RAM
  • Storage runs on M.2 NVMe SSDs, with most builds offering more than one drive slot
  • A higher RAM tier or larger SSD configuration adds value, but the GPU still matters more

Display & audio

Display

The EVO16-S carries a 16-inch panel sized for immersive gaming rather than portability. Exact resolution and refresh rate vary by the configuration originally ordered, so check your unit's display settings rather than assuming a spec.

Audio

Built-in stereo speakers sit above the keyboard deck, common on Clevo-based gaming chassis of this era. Most buyers pair the laptop with a headset for competitive play, so speaker wear rarely affects resale condition grading.

Ports & connectivity

As a desktop-replacement gaming laptop, the EVO16-S leans on a full-size port selection rather than dongles.

Wired
  • HDMI output
  • Multiple USB-A ports
  • USB-C
  • Ethernet (RJ45)
  • 3.5mm headset jack
Wireless
  • Wi-Fi
  • Bluetooth

Battery, build & more

Build & chassis

Origin builds the EVO16-S with serviceable internals, a common trait across its lineup, which makes component upgrades easier than on sealed mainstream laptops. This same design also means condition varies more from unit to unit, since prior owners may have opened the chassis.

Market positioning

The EVO16-S competes in the premium gaming laptop tier rather than the budget segment. Units carrying the RTX 2070 or RX 6650M hold noticeably more resale interest than the base RTX 2060 configuration, since the GPU tier defines what games and settings the laptop can still handle.

Software

The EVO16-S ships as a standard Windows laptop rather than one running a locked-down OEM shell, so a clean Windows install is enough to prepare it for resale.

Frequently asked questions

01 How do I find the model number or exact configuration?
Run dxdiag or msinfo32 from the Windows Run dialog (Windows key + R) to see your exact processor and graphics card. Origin does not stamp a single model number on the chassis, so the CPU and GPU pairing is the most reliable way to place your unit in the 2019 or 2022 generation. If you are still unsure after checking, the model finder can help narrow it down.
02 How do I tell it apart from the Origin EON16-S?
Check the processor and graphics card, since the naming alone will not distinguish them. The EON16-S is a separate Origin line with its own component pairings, while the EVO16-S sticks to the Intel/RTX and Ryzen/Radeon combinations listed above. If dxdiag shows a CPU or GPU that does not match either EVO16-S generation, you likely have an EON model instead, and it should be listed under its own product page rather than this one.
03 Can I sell it with damage, a weak battery, or if it won't turn on?
Yes, condition simply changes where the offer lands rather than whether we accept the laptop. A cracked hinge, dead battery, or a unit that won't power on can still be quoted, since the GPU and other components often carry value even when the whole machine does not work. If the laptop has a Windows login, BitLocker, or a Microsoft account tied to it, that account needs to be removed before shipping so the unit can be tested and resold.
04 What raises the trade-in value the most?
The graphics card tier matters more than any other single factor on the EVO16-S. An RTX 2070 or RX 6650M configuration will consistently price above an RTX 2060 unit in similar cosmetic condition. Beyond the GPU, a working battery, an intact keyboard deck with no missing keycaps, and original charger all help. Cosmetic wear on the lid or palm rest has a smaller effect than functional issues.
05 How do I erase it and remove my accounts, and how do I get paid?
Go to Settings → System → Recovery → Reset this PC, and choose to remove everything. Before resetting, sign out of and remove the laptop from your Microsoft account under Settings → Accounts, and if BitLocker is enabled, suspend or decrypt it first so the reset completes cleanly. Once the quote is confirmed, shipping is free and insured, and payment goes out after inspection via PayPal, Venmo, Zelle, CashApp, or check.
