If you were in the market for a new gaming machine to play the hotly anticipated Doom: The Dark Ages, Newegg is now running a pretty solid offer. You can now get Doom: The Dark Ages completely free and a free Logitech G502 Lightspeed wireless gaming mouse with the MSI Vector 16 HX AI. The laptop also comes with the “Intel Spring CPU Bundle” promotion, which gives users two free games: Civilization VII and the upcoming Dying Light: The Beast.
To put it simply, buying the MSI Vector 16 HX AI from Newegg gets you a $99.99 Logitech G502 wireless gaming mouse, a copy of Doom: The Dark Ages ($70) as part of an "Nvidia GeForce Bundle", a copy of Civilization VII ($70), and Dying Light: The Beast which is scheduled to release in Summer 2025.
MSI Vector 16 HX AI hardware specifications
MSI unveiled the Vector 16 HX AI gaming laptop earlier this year at CES 2025. The notebook is a high-end machine that marries the latest Intel Arrow Lake-HX mobile CPUs and Nvidia RTX 50 laptop GPUs with a 16-inch high-refresh rate display.
The MSI Vector 16 HX AI SKU on sale on Newegg costs $1,599.99 and brings a Core Ultra 7 255HX CPU, an RTX 5070 Ti laptop GPU, 16 GB of expandable DDR5 memory, and 512 GB of PCIe Gen 4 storage, also upgradable. Around the front, there is a 16-inch FHD+ panel. Sadly, we don’t know why MSI keeps pushing a disappointing 45% NTSC panel on a $1,600 machine.
For what it’s worth, there are plenty of cost-effective 1440p gaming monitors on sale on Amazon that would make the MSI Vector 16 HX AI a solid desktop replacement.
Finally, the MSI Vector 16 HX AI also brings niceties like two Thunderbolt 5 ports, a 24-zone RGB keyboard, and a large 90 Wh battery.
