The award-winning laptops powered by 12th Gen Intel® Core™ H series processor and up to GeForce RTX 3080 Ti at the “Gameverse” virtual event
MSI, the innovative computing manufacturer in gaming, creator, and business laptops, proudly reveals its new lineup of laptops equipped with the latest 12th Gen Intel® H series processors. MSI demonstrated its determination and vision for the coming era of the metaverse. The new laptops boasting the Meta-ready logo are equipped with Intel® CoreTM i7 or above processors and NVIDIA GeForce RTX ™ 3070 or above, for anyone who would like to experience Metaverse-compatible performance.
NVIDIA GeForce RTX laptops are based on the revolutionary Ampere architecture, with 2nd generation RT Cores for ray tracing and 3rd generation Tensor Cores for DLSS and AI.
The new GeForce RTX 3080 Ti Laptop GPU brings the flagship 80 Ti class of GPUs to laptops for the first time. Featuring 16GB of the fastest GDDR6 memory ever shipped in a laptop, the RTX 3080 Ti delivers higher performance than the desktop TITAN RTX. The new GeForce RTX 3070 Ti is up to 70% faster than RTX 2070 SUPER laptops and can deliver 100 frames per second at 1440p resolution.
Additionally, the new 4th generation of Max-Q Technologies, with CPU Optimizer, Rapid Core Scaling, and Battery Boost 2.0, further enhance efficiency, performance, and battery life.
The new gaming laptop lineup features a significant performance improvement over previous models; including up to 30%~45% increase in CPU performance. MSI also added innovations in thermal solutions: the Phase Change Liquid Metal Pad. The MSI-exclusive cooling helps fully release the power of the new 12th Gen Intel processors. It provides a solution that is as efficient as liquid metal, but safer and more reliable.
MSI’s Creator series is now a bigger family with panels up to 17 inches. The overall CPU performance is improved 45% with the new Vapor Chamber Cooler, and MSI has added features for content creators such as touch support for MSI Pen, Calman verified True Pixel Display, and collaboration with DTS for a rich, immersive surround sound experience.
Sleek & Sophisticated – GS77/66 Stealth
The award-winning Stealth GS series are lightweight, powerful laptops for gaming and professional use. The GS77 comes with a new “core black” colour and a more durable zinc alloy hinge. At less than 21mm for Z height, MSI managed to enlarge the touchpad and keycap size for a precise and comfortable typing experience. It is also equipped with six speakers for crisp treble and powerful bass. Business gamers will benefit from the webcam lock switch and support for up to100W PD charging for better security and mobility.
Ultimate Powerhouse – Raider GE76/66
MSI Raider GE series is the real eye-catcher, retaining the panoramic aurora lighting, which creates an alluring sci-fi ambience. The performance is even more astonishing; with the innovative thermal design by MSI, the Raider GE series performance can reach up to a total of 220W(GE76 reaches 220W performance when it’s equipped with NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti ) with GeForce RTX 3080 Ti via MSI OverBoost. The Phase Change Liquid Metal Pad increases performance by an extra 10%, and with displays up to 4K with the support of Discrete Graphics Mode, gamers will have a fast and smooth experience with the MSI Raider Series.
Born for Performance – Vector GP76/66
The Vector GP Series was born with a new concept; the name “Vector” represents MSI’s expectation for the GP series to have all the power needed to move forward with a satisfying experience in gaming, engineering, or scientific computing. With Cooler Boost 5 Technology, the Vector’s performance can reach up to 210W via MSI Over Boost.
Rainbow Six Extraction Edition – Crosshair 15
The Crosshair GL series is a collaboration between MSI and Ubisoft. The series features a futuristic design with exclusive sci-fi elements inspired by the feeling and mood of gameplay, and the comes equipped with Intel® CoreTM i9 processors and Cooler Boost 5 Technology. The graphic performance is at a maximized level – setting the Crosshair series apart from its competition. Crosshair GL Series comes in three variants: Crosshair 15, Crosshair 17, and the limited edition Crosshair 15 Rainbow Six Extraction Edition that comes with an exclusive bundle pack.
Pulsating Power– Pulse GL76/66
The MSI Pulse GL76/66 keeps the design features by Maarten Verhoeven along with the titanium power armor inspired by Pulse energy for the Dragon Army to enhance agility and flexibility. Cooler Boost 5 increases airflow by 15%, even with a 33% reduction of wall thickness.
Sharpen Your Game – Sword 17/15, Katana GF76/66
The MSI Sword series boasts a new knight image with magical immortal force – “Dragon Power” – wielding an enchanted sword of victory. Justin Goby Fields created this knight character, a famous concept artist from the United States. Both Sword and Katana series are set to help gamers succeed with a comfortable key travel at 1.7mm and Cooler Boost 5.
Creator Z17, Creator Z16P and Creator Z16
The Creator Z17 is the world’s first 17-inch laptop to support pen touch and features the 16:10 screen ratio with a thin bezel design and True Color Technology to be the perfect companion for creators to achieve more. The Creator Z16P has an extra 20% performance boost with Vapor Chamber Cooler, which generates 76% extra more cooling area, 65% more airflow, and decreases the surface temperature by 2°C (3.6°F). With competitive performance and a CNC-milled aluminum chassis, the Creator Z Series are Studio laptops built for creators, inquisitive professionals, or consumers who enjoy high quality, premium products.
The Creator M16 is a more portable and stylish choice for students or creators with the need for a powerful performance. It features a QHD+ True Pixel display that lays flat at 180° and an ultra-light, slim aluminium chassis.
MSI does not just innovate with its hardware, but also with the MSI Center software with the intention of creating the smartest laptops ever. MSI Smart Auto will auto switch the suitable modes depending on your usage, while Ambient Silent AI will detect ambient noise level (dB) to adjust the fan speed, giving you better performance with a relatively silent fan.
MSI’s new Gaming and Content Creation series provide persistently powerful performance, innovative thermal solutions, and a bevy of new features, with MSI’s signature aesthetic touch.
