80% MSI Vector 16 HX AI review – As long as it’s plugged in
Source: Stuff Magazine English
It may not sound like it, but the R64,000 price for our review Vector 16 HX AI is actually on the safe side of reasonable. Sure, it’s lacking the looks of a more qualified gamer, but it’s what’s under the hood that really counts. The Intel Core Ultra 9 CPU and Nvidia RTX 5070 Ti offer decent gaming performance when paired with this choice of display. Bumping up the resolution might make things look a little sharper, but that will also affect your framerates if you’re aiming for a balance between pleasant visuals and smooth gameplay. It might leave a few boxes unticked, but the display of our review unit is more than enough for most folks. It’s a pity that the battery life isn’t quite as capable, but what does it matter? You’ll be leaving this one at home, right?
