Pros and cons

According to our laptop expert

You can play very demanding games and stream your gameplay in 4K thanks to the RTX 4080 video card, the i9 processor, and 32GB RAM.
With the MSI Overboost Ultra technology, you get the absolute most out of the processor and graphic performance.
You can fully adjust the RGB lighting of the SteelSeries gaming keyboard and the Matrix RGB light bar to your liking.
If you want to play the most demanding games at high settings, we recommend an RTX 4090 / RX 6900 video card.

Powerful and beautiful

Super fast
Nice design
Fantastic graphics
Mediocre battery life

A beautiful, super fast and powerful gaming laptop, If you have the money, highly recommended. The only point is the battery life, but that is to be expected for powerful laptops

What can be better then Intel i9? There are simply no tasks or apps, games impossible for this laptop. GPU feels trustworthy in games. Fast and large capacity SSD really can store all my games. Fully satisfied!
