Katana 15 15.6” 165Hz QHD Gaming Laptop: Intel Core i7-13620H, NVIDIA Geforce RTX 4070, 16GB DDR5, 1TB NVMe SSD, Cooler Boost 5, Win 11: Black B13VGK-2000US

For the specs, is a bargain in my opinion. Great graphics, great drive room and fast as you spect. The box came a bit damaged in the front with a scratch and there were some marks on the case that looked like something sticky was on it before, so I was worried at first, then it didn't turn up, so I was even more worried, but then I realized there were no scratches directly in the laptop case, the marks in the case were easily cleaned with a paper towel and as soon as I connected it to the power supply and turned it on, it started working perfectly. Windows is always easy to set up, although would prefer windows 10 but 11 is ok I guess.

la tengo 1 años y funciona a la perfecion

Good build quality. Can run 98% plus of games at higher graphic settings. Really good value for what you get. The fans do get loud during heavier tasks, but then are relatively quiet. The are quieter than my old xbox one and older laptop. I upgraded the ram to 64gb and I'm looking to upgrade and add an extra SSD for extra storage. The motherboard has 2 spots total for an extra storage drive which is awesome. The screen looks great with vibrant color, sharp, and great contrast. Keyboard keys feel great and are silent and have an ideal weight for my personal preference. I'd recommend a fan stand to put the laptop on to elevate and give better air flow. Great Buy!

Has a sort of middle school-aged type design, the actual laptop barely functions- most of the keybindings are for some reason linked to random functions that aren't originally indicated. For example, the sound keystrokes open up random ctl+f type mechanics... and overall the product is glitchy, and slow. It has the speed of a public library computer (I actually think a public library lender laptop would be quicker). I genuinely think this is a used laptop and they threw some new stickers on it to say it's unused. The MSI center is buggy, get frozen and constantly has me re-agreeing to terms of service and saying it needs to be updated. I would have returned this sooner but I've been busy. 1 star because it works- if a slow google search is the limit. Aside from these specific issues I'm having, the laptop is considerably bulkier than expected. I'll most likely go back to the stealth model that I really like.

LISTEN UP!You MUST go into the hidden bios and turn down the power limit from P1 and P2 to 80w and 120w. Also, you need to enable overclocking so it will actually get benefits from these power limits.It was factory set to disable overclocking AND maintain a power draw of 200w???? This laptop got EXTREMELY hot, and i understand why because of these settings, but the average Joe isn’t gonna know to deep dive into a bunch of settings to fix things.Since I’ve made these changes, the laptop runs sooooooo much cooler, quieter, and faster! It was really sluggish at first because of thermal throttling, I legit started a return and packed it up to be sent back.But then I gave it another chance and deep dived into the intimidating settings and fixed the poor thing, and it’s sooooo snappy! It responds and loads applications wildly fast, I actually feel like I got this thing for an absolute STEAL at $1,000!!!

The165 Hz QHD display version has outstanding visuals. In researching this laptop it was cautioned that the 165hz display would slightly affect game play due to the power draw. On first person shooters I did notice the reaction time on my part had to be quicker than on my other laptop to achieve the same results, but I would not trade for a lower resolution panel. If you are a highly competitive gamer, I would go with the 144Hz panel. My overall experience with this laptop is much more than I expected for the price point. You do get a plastic body, but the internals have cooling pipes of a more expensive laptop. Very happy at this point but will upgrade ram to 32Gb

TLDR; both were missing heatsink grease causing overheating. Two laptops same model/specs bought 3 months apart, both had shoddy assembling and overheating out of the box. see photos.Purchased two of these, one for my wife, one for me to replace our older GT72/GT62 laptops, and immediatelly right away while gaming or doing anything with heavy processor load, we encountered full-on lock-ups. Freezing, BSoD, whether it was Windows 10 or Windows 11, both encountered same issue, with same load conditions/same symptoms.I finally got sick of it and opened them up. My wife's first, once open, showed that part of the CPU had *NO* heatsink grease. The nVidia GPU was done correctly, but the CPU chip (which has a longer rectangular die and a smaller square die) had part of the chips (Small square, maybe northbridge?) Completely devoid of any heatsink compound. I put Arctic Silver MX-5 on it, and put the laptop together (along with some memory upgrades and an SSD Upgrade). I wanted to see if this was endemic, or isolated, and did the same to mine (Same model/specs, older purchase by 3 months, same upgrades) and my shock and horror as I found the same thing. I attached two pictures showing each CPU. Both are different machines, with slightly different coverages.This is unacceptable, and MSI, if you are reading this: You have some serious quality control issues. I shouldn't find this on two laptops 3 months assembly apart, with the same fatal flaw. This is the flaw that can KILL these laptops. Even if it's the northbridge, anything reminiscent of high bandwidth transfers on the bus could in essence, kill the soldered-on CPU. I implore you to change how you do grease, because if it was done with pre-made pads of grease, it's not covering everything. I found no grease on either the CPU die part, nor the copper block that mates with it, and it shows that more than my laptops are afflicted by this. Please review quality control methods, and redo your manufacturing to fix this issue. This is how you end up with dead laptops.Anyone who has purchased this, Please, at minimum, redo your heatsink compound if you wish for the laptop to live longer than 6 months. I can't imagine this being a small issue, considering the chiplet die and what it's used for. This is very shoddy assembly, and I've seen this stuff kill computers before, when they eventually overheat and scorch a hole right through the chip.For reference, when I was playing Diablo IV, I could only play by setting the GPU to be primary without passing through CPU, unless I wanted it to crash. I was able to get 76FPS at 2560x1280 on an Ultra-Wide LG (External HDMI) with GPU direct (no hybrid GPU), and once the CPU was properly cooled, that number shot up to 98-102fps, with all settings on high. Gone were lags and tearing, and gone was small stutters that would affect game play. Even did a speedtest with SSD-> SSD transfer, and it went from 788MB/s -> 1280MB/s transfer on even random IO of 64-Byte/8KB Blocks. So this is a huge issue and seriously affects performance, let alone reliability.That said, I'm happy with the performance, the fact it has another SSD slot available, and two upgradeable memory slots, but I'm docking a star as this is a huge quality control issue capable of killing what is otherwise a decent laptop.I'm not concerned about audio (It's a bit tinny sounding), and the screen is nice, the ports are Ok-ish, number wise, and the trackpad is usuable, plus kudo's for allowing you to switch to 100% dedicated GPU option for GPU-> display without going through CPU (You can control this) and keyboard is decent, but for the love of god, PLEASE fix this issue, or your warranty center is going to see a LOT of dead laptops that will die for no good reason other than junk assembly quality control.

This is my 16yr old son’s school computer for a programming class. He has had it all school year and recently had an issue which needed repair. The companies manufacturer warranty covered the cost 100% and the process, other than dealing with USPS, was extremely easy and fast. MSI was amazing and we appreciate their work and timely repair! ( My son uses this a ton and it has been a great purchase. The need for repair was probably from his overuse of the device and unrealistic expectations for what it could handle. The device is solid and we would purchase it again in a heartbeat.)

Excelente laptop tengo 3 años con ella y sigue siendo una bestia ❤️

ممتاز ذات مواصفات رهيبة مقارنة بالسعر

Chulada puedo jugar warzone a 165 fps sin problema alguno

Por el momento si eres de México no recomiendo el producto con la implementación exigente de la NOM es difícil que tú producto pase si este es importado por lo cual se vuelve casi imposible que pase un producto arriba de 1k dólares
