MSI Creator 15: Good system performance meets bright UHD panel
MSI has enhanced this series' strengths with the Creator 15. The Comet Lake update offers a decent performance increase while the UHD panel scores points with its high luminosity and vivid colors. Only the battery suffers from this high performance.

MSI has chosen the Comet Lake CPU Intel Core i7-10875H for its Creator 15. This content creator notebook manages to make the most out of the processor's potential. The results of our CineBench R15 loop are good throughout with performance only dropping minimally and remain above that of the competition at all times. If you look at all CPU test results, the processor is positioned in the upper mid-range of our comparison field.
The notebook is also equipped with a Nvidia GeForce RTX 2070 Max-Q and 16 GB of RAM as well as two 1-TB RAID SSDs. While the SSDs and the RAM module both ensure good results in our PCMark system performance benchmarks, the graphics card can't quite live up to its expectations. But as the Nvidia GeForce RTX 2070 Max-Q was already installed in the previous year's model, we weren't expecting a performance increase here anyway.
The MSI Creator 15 not only provides a good case and reliable system performance, but also a good, high-quality UHD panel with great colors that can be further adjusted to various color spaces in the MSI Creator Center. The brightness is so high that the notebook can be used in any surroundings.

I carried out my first IT experiments with a 386-based system and a whole 4 MB RAM. This was followed by work on various PCs and laptops that I maintained and repaired for friends and acquaintances. After training to become a Telecommunications Systems Technician and gaining a few years of experience, I graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Industrial Engineering. Currently, I pursue my fascination for IT, technology, and mobile devices by writing reviews and articles for Notebookcheck. I have also worked for Gamestar, Netzwelt, and Golem, among others.

I completed my master's degree in translation at the University of Vienna a few years ago and have been working as a translator for English, German and French ever since. I first started translating for Notebookcheck in 2017 and have learned more about computers than I ever imagined, and I have even become the person my family turns to for advice when it comes to consumer electronics. Other than that I also focus on everything connected to sustainability and renewable energy.
