Best Buy now has the MSI Delta 15 AMD Advantage Edition for 36% off the US$1,399.99 list price. With a combined 4.3 stars out of 5 from 324 reviews, the MSI Delta 15 on sale comes well-rated. In addition to commendable gaming prowess, the notebook can also serve as a worthy day-to-day laptop thanks to its light weight, thinner profile, and good battery life.

The MSI Delta 15 AMD Advantage Edition is on sale for a massive US$500 off over at Best Buy (via slickdeals). The latest discounted price of US$899.99 is the lowest in over 120 days according to Honey’s price history. For the slashed rate, the MSI Delta 15 AMD Advantage Edition packs a 15.6 inch 1080p display with a superfast 240 Hz refresh rate, a powerful 8-core Ryzen 7 5800H, 16 GB of DDR4 memory, and 1 TB of internal PCIe storage. Finally, the GPU on offer is a Radeon RX 6700M with 10 GB of dedicated VRAM.

The MSI Delta 15 AMD Advantage Edition proved to be a very capable machine in our testing. The muted aluminum chassis appeared sturdy with solid craftsmanship. The weight and thickness of the laptop also came out better than all competing laptops.

On the performance side of things, the MSI Delta 15 AMD Advantage Edition will handle anything you can throw at it courtesy of a speedy Ryzen 7 5800H and the Radeon RX 6700M. For instance, the Ryzen 7 5800H scores 11,859 points in Cinebench R23 multi-core on average, putting the CPU on par with a 12th gen Core i7-1260p and a Ryzen 7 6800HS.

Similarly, the Radeon RX 6700M is an excellent mobile card for 1080p gaming. The board can go toe-to-toe with an RTX 3070 laptop GPU in both gaming and synthetic workloads. For instance, in Far Cry 6, the RX 6700M managed to output 74 fps at 1080p/Ultra when we tested the MSI Delta 15, matching the numbers posted by the RTX 3070 laptop board.

In fact, save for Crysis Remastered and Cyberpunk 2077 both of which are notoriously hard to run, the RX 6700M inside the MSI Delta 15 AMD Advantage Edition never dipped below 60 fps at 1080p/Ultra in all the games we ran on the card.

Long story short, the MSI Delta 15 AMD Advantage Edition on sale for US$899.99 is definitely worth a look for folks interested in a relatively thin and light laptop for 1080p gaming.
