MSI Katana 15 HX 15.6” 165Hz QHD+ Gaming Laptop: Intel Core i9-14900HX, NVIDIA Geforce RTX 5070, 32GB DDR5, 1TB NVMe SSD, RGB Keyboard, Win 11 Home: Black B14WGK-016US

Great quality. Good value for money. It’s completely worth it

I wanted a new laptop for personal use as well as mostly moderate gaming, and this laptop is great for all my purposes (i9, 32GB RAM, 1TB storage). I consider the price I paid ($1746) reasonable compared with similar laptops, but it does go on sale sometimes. The laptop is a little on the heavy and slightly bulky side for casual use, but I wouldn’t have minded if it was even bigger than it is if that meant better cooling, less cost, etc. It really not too bulky for a gaming laptop. Size aside, it looks great. Stylish and sleek, and the customizable and dimmable keyboard backlighting is a nice touch. I like the keyboard layout for typing as well as gaming, I find it to be very functional. The number pad is small but usable. The function keys are well thought out (function keys for screen brightness, keyboard backlighting brightness, enable/disable touchpad, mute mic, etc.), which I find to be rare with laptops. There’s a light for function lock and mic muting. WASD are a different color for gaming. The laptop runs Windows 11 well and seems very fast and powerful (although I haven’t done anything yet to truly push its limits). The BIOS is pretty reasonable, based on my experience (IT professional). The MSI app with designated function key lets you quickly change the power mode for your purposes, although my limited experience with the AI mode has not been great so far (it throttled the power down when I needed it, reasons unknown, and it turned off the keyboard backlighting at night). I’ve only played a few games on it so far, but it handles Fortnite like a champ without needing its full capabilities (power setting on “balanced” works perfectly). I haven’t run into any major issues with other programs or OS yet. Worth noting, the laptop does not always shut down properly. I’ve had to disable sleep and hibernation in Windows, as the laptop frequently does not resume from those states gracefully. Sometimes the laptop does not shut down completely at all, and the Embedded Controller keeps the fans running indefinitely, until I hold down the power button to manually power it off. That’s not ideal, but for me it’s not too big a deal either. The laptop also runs hot when in performance power mode or when gaming. I would never use a gaming laptop without a cooling pad, but if you’re new to gaming laptops, take note. The laptop seems to manage its built in fans well (and there’s a keyboard function key to let you immediately turn all the fans on to max speed), but again, I advise a cooling pad with fans to ensure you don’t overheat it during any use more intensive than watching videos. Definitely don’t ever put this down on a soft surface (like a bed or couch) without a hard flat surface under it or you’ll probably melt it. The power supply is bulky, as you would expect for a laptop that needs extra power for gaming, and the power supply also gets hot. Best to keep it where it can easily cool when in use. The power cord has a third prong/ground. All around, a great gaming laptop for a reasonable price.

Amazing

Hasta el momento que llevo ocupando la laptop, ha sido un gran uso y una gran compra, eh jugado varios títulos la máximo en 4k, y la verdad no me ha dado problemas como tal, una recomendación es que manténgala actualizada, además, viene con una suscripción gamepass pc de base no la ultimate, además si tienen dudas por el precio si viene con windows 11, viene con un sistema rgb de teclado de 4 zonas y sobre todo el acabo es plástico, tampoco se puede esperar otro material por el precio, pero aun así el material se siente de calidad, el sistema cooler boost 5 se siente muy bien, casi no esta tan caliente, a diferencia de la serie G de dell, gestiona muchisimo mejor el calor, para todo lo demás que vayas a ocupar si no es para gaming o productividad, saca todo el trabajo, un señalamiento si vás a utilizar la laptop para edición etc., te recomiento un monitor externo, ya que por el precio el mayor sacrificio es pantalla, wifi 6e (no 7), y que el teclado si eres hispano no trae ñ pero para escribirla por defecto en el teclado, recomiendo configurarla en español, para que la teclado a lado de L funcione como ñ.

La mejor computadora que he tenido en muchisimo tiempo. Viene perfecta para todo lo que uno necesite
