    The media could not be loaded.

    La laptop es un monstruo delgado, tiene muy buen rendimiento, hasta ahora la he probado en 3 juegos, Doom Eternal (lo corre de maravilla en gráficos altos) Just Cause (unos 40 a 60 fps en altos, pero eso ya es cosa de la optimización) y Control (30 fps a gráficos medios), quizás los corra mucho mejor haciendo Overclock. El teclado no es iluminado, pero en lo personal la prefiero así, le da un toque más discreto a la hora de trabajar con ella, aún así durante la noche si se logran distinguir bien cada tecla (adjunté foto), ya que el brillo de la pantalla refleja en la letra blanca que tiene cada tecla. No es tan ruidosa comparándolas con otras, en el video parece que es ruidosa, pero en persona muy apenas la escuchas, vengo de una asus, esa parecía avión a punto de despegar… Sin duda alguna Vale la pena cada centavo.

    Obs: no tiene la tecla ñ, pero funciona, poniendo tu mapeado del teclado en español, así podrás escribir sin ningún problema (siempre y cuando te sepas el teclado de memoria)

    Edito: después de actualizar los drivers de nvidia y Windows, el juego control lo corre a. 60fps en medios

    Gears of war lo corre a 60fps en ultra y starwars JFO lo corre a. 60fps en altos

    Muy buena maquina, con buen rendimiento, el único pero que le pondría es la duración de la batería.

    I’m a huge fan of MSI. This notebook is probably the best purchase I made late last year. The performance isn’t bad whatsoever. Playing games like Rogue Company, Destiny 2 Rainbow Six Siege at over 100 to 200 fps makes it a better option than that of most home console. But at 1080p at high or medium settings of course. Some cons that I have to address though. 1. The battery dies fast even while playing small, less demanding games and can clock in at less than 2 hours before needing a charge again. 2. Unplugging the notebook from the power cable can cut performance in half or more. 3. Not much USB connectors so you’re limited to what you can use unless you shell out for a usb hub. It’s worth IMO. 4. Storage is murder if you want to install some if the best AAA games since it in only has 512gb out of the box plus the 16gb Ram is enough for gaming but editing needs more though. The best solution is upgrading to more storage and adding more ram once you feel you really need it. Check YouTube for any good tutorial videos once ready for upgrade. Finally 5. Temperature and noise levels. This notebook can get exceedingly hot and loud during sessions, I use a Tecknet cooler to help but it just manages to keep it a better temperature than reliying on the notebooks loud fans. Using headphones is only way bypass this annoyance, cause the “jet engine” like sound will put you off in just about an hour. Even with all these cons, I can’t recommend this laptop enough. The performance is just too good and it’s probably the best way to enter pc gaming at a decent price due to the ongoing GPU drought thanks to the chip shortage.

    I got this laptop a few days ago and have tested it for nearly 48h.

    Some things to consider
    • Pretty good screen for a laptop. 144hz and good looking out of the box
    • Laptop frame feels solid but isnt overly heavy.
    • The 6gb RTX 3060 runs games really well. Division 2 averaged over 120 fps at max settings at 1080p. I tested war thunder, escape from tarkov and mordhau as well and both were extremely smooth (both hit 144hz reliably at ultra 1080p). No noticable input or screen lag in mordhau so fast shooters will benefit as well.
    • No noticeable micro stutters when switching from
    • The laptop top doesn’t feel hot under pressure but I wouldn’t play this on my lap.
    • I added a 1tb WD Blue NVMe stick to this laptop, its easy to do and there are videos of how to do it.
    • The GPU runs cool for a laptop (avg 78 under pressure) but the CPU doesn’t. You can fix this by limiting the max power in power settings for the CPU or undervolting it. The cpu has initial spikes in temp but usually ends up in the mid 80s which is a little hot but expected.
    • Use dragon center to tune the performance. Don’t run extreme performance without cooler boost.
    • Buy a cooling pad and watch temps for the CPU, the CPU is the only thing that holds this beast back because it tends to hit high temps (95c max from what I saw) if left at max settings.
    • It has 2x USB3.2and 2x USB-C so you might need to buy an usb dongle. It has a single jack for a headset so you might need to buy a splitter depending on your headset.
    • One HDMI only. No displayport at all which is something to consider. The HDMI is capable of 4k 60hz but at the end of the day its HDMI. Should be compatible with g sync or g sync supported monitors.

    I recommend this computer to anyone who is your avid gamer. I was able to run games that were not easy to run on your typical pc. However, I will say that some of these games only work smoothly if you have the battery connected most of the time. For example, when I run the sims, it works smoothly when it’s fully charged, but after it gets to 50% or less, the whole game runs so much slower. Almost like the laptop isn’t a gaming laptop with good core and hz. I did research and came up with this laptop multiple times. I only really play the sims so I didn’t think to get a whole pc setup, with a well working component. Either way, besides the battery drainage, it works just as intended. I was a bit disappointed about the fact that I can’t really decorate the laptop since it’s red and black themed already. It looks awesome, but I would’ve liked to decorate to whatever mood I’m in at the time I use it. Not to mention that I use this laptop for school, so it’s kind of awkward having a whole gaming laptop with loud noises in the middle of class. It does get hot on the sides, so if you can afford it, definitely get a laptop cooling pad. Amazon has plenty.

    Great laptop. I upgraded to 16GB RAM and put in a 1 TB SSD immediately when I got it. Super easy and there’s a great YouTube video out there if you need extra help. Still running great and I’ve had it for 2 years now.

    Compre esta laptop porque necesitaba mas poder y portabilidad de en mi trabajo (soy diseñador y escritor)
    La laptop cumple con lo que promete y fue un gran salto de una Macbook Pro 2015.

    Rendimiento: PROS

    – Al tener una grafica dedicada, puedes jugar practicamente cualquier juego desde fall guys hasta juegos pesados como GOW en graficos bajos medios.

    – En programas como PS, el rendimiento es exepcional y muy fluido.

    – El SSD M.2 es de poca capacidad pero veloz, lo cambiaré para tener mayor espacio. (Ojo solo tiene un slot para M.2)

    RENDIMIENTO: CONTRAS

    – Nunca había comprado una laptop gamer, y mi sorpresa fue que cuando tienes poca batería el rendimiento (más en juegos) se ve muy afectado, limitando la potencia al grado de no poder jugar fluidamente.

    – Los 8 GB de RAM son suficientes unica y exclusivamente si no la usaras mas que para tareas de ofimatica, para cualquier uso diferente si o si necesitaras 16 GB.

    CALIDAD – PROS

    – Los materiales son en su mayoria plastico, por lo que el peso es muy bajo.

    CALIDAD – CONTRAS

    – Tiende a ensuciarse DEMASIADO, si eres una persona que le sudan mucho las manos se notara aún más.

    Tips adicionales:

    En mi PC de escritorio cuento con un Ryzen 5 5600X y una RTX 3070Ti, el rendimiento de la de escritorio claramente es muy superior, pero aún y cuando comparto archivos para continuar el trabajo fuera de casa, la laptop se comporta bastante bien y a la altura.

    Desde el día 1 opte por colocar 32 GB RAM, no hace falta decir que el rendimiento mejoro MUCHISIMO. (Tiene 2 modulos y soporta hasta 64 GB)

    El panel es IPS, por lo que si ya tienes una PC de escritorio con un panel VA o TN, notarás que los colores son mas fríos pero a su vez más reales.

    Téllez

    Es un buena laptop su ventaja es el precio y el rendimiento es muy bueno, al instante en que la prendes ya la puedes usar, corre todos los juegos actuales en configuración mediano/alto entre 40/50 fps a 1080p, su temperatura no rebasa de los 85° no se si sea bueno

    Las desventajas que encontre;
    La bateria no dura lo que prometieron (8 horas) apenas alcanza 4 horas de duración aunque solo la uses para navegar o enviar mensajes de whatsapp, viene con una gráfica 1650 max Q diferente a la 1650 que prometieron y no viene con camara integrada, la ranura nada mas da la fachada de que tiene pero windows no la detecta y no existe ningun driver detectable para instalar, otra deesventaja es el almacenamiento, es muy poco y se acaba muy rápido pero se puede ampliar

    Y el acabado es de aluminio, metal cepillado
