BEST SELLERS

In Laptop / Notebook

The Ryzen 5 8640HS CPU is very powerful for the $400 price range, and is a 6 core/12 thread CPU with an itegrated Radeon 760M graphics processor that is more in line with a low-end dedicated card than what many think of as "integrated graphics" For intel fans, it would be more like the Arc graphics in a Core Ultra chip than the integrated intel graphics in earlier chips. I upgraded the system with an 8 GB DDR5-5600 RAM card to bring the system to a symmetrical 16 GB DDR5 RAM. Despite the listed specs on New Egg, it is DDR5-5600 RAM, not DDR4. The 8640HS is a Zen 4 chip. It was easier to open than a Dell Latitude to upgrade the RAM but it still takes patience to open the tabs. The build quality looks decent, especially for the price. I got it for travel, but it seems capable of light gaming too. It won't handle something demanding like Witcher III, Cyberpunk 2077, or Baulder's Gate III well, but Alien: Isolation and Subnautica seems to run well. Older less demanding games like Skyrim should too. Full disclosure, I am running Ubuntu 24.04 LTS testing the games, so "mileage may vary" on Windows 11. Fan will run higher gaming of course. I read 72-76 C while playing Alien Isolation wandering around the ship at the start. This Ryzen 5 has a max thermal throttle temperature of 100 C like it's intel counterparts, so that is actually fine. It's meant more as a media/work laptop, and for the the laptop has more than enough power.

Ryzen CPU, shared memory, excellent pricepoint @ <$600

So much fun! Handles graphics very well with the NVidia 5050. The display is beautiful. Laptop super quiet. Completely silent during regular work and the airflow is done so well that the fans are still very quiet under load. Dont even notice them.

The price is great for this MSI Laptop.

I love everything about this laptop. The i9 and the 3080 ti plus the 150-165 watts make every game buttery smooth. It even gets a solid 35-45 fps in the Witcher 3 with all ray tracing on @ 1440p. No other computer or laptop I have used could do this. I went through 5 laptops before I found this one. M16, Razer Blade 15, Razer Blade 17, and the Helios 300. This thing outdoes all of them. Both Razers' had the 3080 ti and the Helios 300 pushed 150 watts into the 3070 ti and this one still wins. I ran 3D mark tests without using anything but the included software set to extreme. It adds 200mhz to the memory and the core clock. I got 6448 in Time Spy Extreme, 8696 in Fire Strike Ultra, and 8483 in Port Royal. The screen is one of the best panels I have seen with hardly any back light bleed. It almost glows perfectly even all across the screen. It does not have HDR but it gets plenty bright. I personally wouldn't want a super bright laptop screen because it would be too much. It came with a Samsung SSD, not sure the exact specs but it is still very nice. 32gb of ram. The bottom panel is a little harder to get off than others I have taken apart but with the right plastic pry tool it will be good. There are two ram slots so I put in 64gb. I believe that is the max. In a game the CPU runs around 80c and the GPU around 73c. That is with auto fans. They are audible but definitely not the loudest fans I have heard. You can set it to "Cooler Boost 5" which turns the fans to max and it is pretty loud. The Helios 300 sounds like a leaf blower when those fans are on max. The keyboard stays cool including the touch pad. Above the numbers the metal gets really warm but still not painful. It blows the heat out of the sides and the back.
