The MSI Vector GP78 HX 13VG Gamer laptop is designed for demanding gamers. This MSI laptop offers perfect gaming comfort thanks to its high-performance components, 17" QHD 240 Hz screen, backlit Gamer keyboard and high-performance audio system.
The 13th-generation Intel Core i9 processors feature an improved hybrid architecture made up of Performance Cores (P-Cores) and Efficiency Cores (E-Cores). With them, you benefit from optimum performance for your multitasking and your most demanding games.
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 40 series GPUs deliver extreme speed for gamers and creators. Based on the highly efficient NVIDIA Ada Lovelace architecture, these GPUs deliver a breakthrough in performance with AI-based DLSS 3 and ray tracing for ultra-realistic images. What's more, the Max-Q technology suite optimises system performance, power, battery life and noise levels for higher efficiency.
On this Gaming Laptop, MSI offers its proprietary Cooler Boost 5 cooling technology, which works with two fans with six heatpipes designed to expel hot air from the chassis via four different flows. Cooler Boost 5 technology has been specially designed for laptops with high-performance graphics chips.
This Gamer laptop features key-by-key backlighting on the keyboard, so you can customise it as you like thanks to the SteelSeries Engine interface. You can set up the keyboard to receive real-time information while you're gaming, or simply admire the keyboard lighting up to the beat of your tunes.

The screen is a 16/10, which makes a difference to the 16/9.
When playing games, the fans can be heard, which is normal for a laptop, but the sound is not very high-pitched and whistling, which is more pleasant.
Runs normally on recent games in 2K.
very satisfied, one star less, as we always like to pay a little less.
