skyfire Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 I love MSI due to their loaded configurations which make them perfect developer and creator machines that can handle RAM and graphics load. This machine is pretty good though it has 15inch screen. https://ca.msi.com/Laptop/GF63-Thin-10SX-GTX/Specification Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 To be honest, you can get more modern budget gaming laptops with better specs for around the same price. That machine is a budget laptop from 2018 and is certainly underpowered compared to modern budget machines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empire Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 Not bad, I think this is good enough with a bit lower GTX 1050Ti performance but kept good CPU performance, good temperature control and longer battery life within a such small and slim 15" gaming notebook! There are new and better options though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are new and better options though Agreed - there are far better options nowadays. A 1660 Ti laptop is around the same price and it offers way more performance than the 1050 TI or the RTX 3050 TI laptops as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I go even more deeper then that, You can pickup systems/laptops with 3000 series GPU in them 🙂 But yeah, I myself have a 1660TI And can't go wrong with that now.

Shole Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 The more I use my ROG the more I am annoyed by the heat and the really bad battery life 😞 , how is this one with battery life? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, the battery life will probably be great because the GPU is low powered one plus the CPU is more than capable of handling anything. Do you use a laptop cooling pad with your laptop though?

skyfire Posted August 10, 2021 Author Share Posted August 10, 2021 I think running the laptops on full on settings like PC does not go well. Kind of like lifespan reduces. otherwise medium settings for most games would keep it working for few more better years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Using a cooling pad while running it at max settings definitely prolongs its lifespan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted August 11, 2021 Author Share Posted August 11, 2021 It may work but kind of not sure how that would go though. Have to test this myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I have a gaming laptop with better specs and the cooling pad makes a world of a difference - believe me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
