If you're a fan of unique-looking PCs, then MSI has you covered with the MEG Aegis Ti5. Being a high-end gaming PC, the Aegis Ti5 isn't going to have a shocking list of specifications, but the case all of that hardware is arranged in definitely isn't just a box. In fact, the Aegis Ti5's case looks like something straight out of Tron.
MSI today launched the MPG Artymis 343CQR monitor, which features a 1000R curved display. This monitor was first revealed back during CES 2021, but today is launch day for the new display. In a sea of other curved gaming monitors, MSI is hoping this one stands out from the bunch not only because of its price point, but also because of its AI feature set.
As with a number of other laptop manufacturers, MSI took the stage at CES 2021 today to announce a new lineup of gaming laptops for the year ahead. Like many of the other laptops we heard about yesterday, a number of these new laptops are sporting mobile versions of NVIDIA's new RTX 30-series GPUs. Some of MSI's flagship gaming laptops are getting refreshed for 2021, so let's dive in and see what's new.
An "individual sales subsidiary working under MSI" was found selling brand new MSI RTX 3080 graphics cards on eBay this week. This is bad news for the individual sales subsidiary and MSI, as these brand new RTX 3080 graphics cards are supposed to be sold by MSI direct to consumers for their original MSRP. This situation is particularly unwelcome at this moment due to the extreme difficulty gamers have had in finding the NVIDIA graphics card hardware available for sale from either NVIDIA or their partner manufacturing brands on the open market.
In the realm of laptops, MSI has built a reputation for itself in the gaming space, but that all changes today with the company introducing its first laptops aimed squarely at business and enterprise customers. The group of 10 laptops were announced today during a livestream event, and as you might expect following yesterday's Intel news, these laptops will use Intel's new 11th-gen Core laptop CPUs.
MSI has given its performance notebook range a 10th Gen Intel Core upgrade, slotting the new H-Series processors into its GS66 Stealth, GE66 Raider, and Creator 17 laptops. Two of the three can be had with up to Intel's new Core i9-10980HK CPU, overclockable and with single-core Turbo Boost of up to 5.3GHz.
Among the laptop models it introduced in recent days is MSI's Creator 17, the first laptop to feature a Mini LED display. With this next-generation technology, the display makes Creator 17 the first laptop model to offer HDR 1000 standards, making it ideal for photographers, artists, filmmakers, and other professionals in need of precise color control.
Mobile gaming is a big thing these days but while nearly everyone has a smartphone, not everyone has a gaming-worthy smartphone. There might also be times when you simply can't play on your smartphone when you're busy on your computer. And there are also times when you'd want to have more than one phone to run two instances of the same game. If you fall in one or all of those categories, then MSI's new App Player might be the PC app you need.
There's an MSI monitor for gaming in the world, and it's called Oculux NXG251R. For some reason MSI can't stop naming their products with masses of letters and numbers that make them sound like droids from Star Wars - but the hardware is legit. The Oculux Esports Gaming Monitor we're looking at today is 24.5-inches diagonally and rolls with Full HD resolution.
Generally gaming-focused PC-maker MSI revealed a new notebook this week af IFA called the MSI P65 Creator. This new PC is not made for gaming. Instead, MSI suggests that this PC was made "for content creators and professionals." They suggest that the reason this notebook is good for content creators and professionals is that it has "desktop-grade power in a form factor they can easily carry around."
MSI brought a number of new products to Siggraph this year, but unquestionably the star of its lineup is the WS65 mobile workstation. If you've used MSI's GS65 Stealth Twin, then this new laptop will probably look familiar, as the company has outfitted it with a similar black chassis. While the laptop certainly looks sleek, it's what's on the inside that really makes it earn its "workstation" designation.
Computex is, naturally, all about computers but of late it has been dominated by gaming PCs, laptops, and peripherals. Perhaps hinting at where the PC industry is headed, PC makers are showing off their latest wares designed to take a beating as far as high-end gaming goes. We’ve heard from ASUS’ ROG brand and, unsurprisingly, MSI isn’t going to take the challenge sitting down. Spanning laptops, towers, and monitors, MSI’s new gaming products have on thing in common: they don’t look like hulking technobeasts.
