I know, I know, it’s a lot of cash. But the truth is, it’s difficult to find many RTX 50-series laptops for anything less than silly money right now, and this one’s got the big boi RTX 5080 for a just about <\/em>reasonable sum. Our Dave has reviewed a very similar model<\/a> and likes the value proposition you get when you take into account that mega GPU, although it is a bit of a hairdryer on full whack. Still, stick it in Balanced mode and the noise is much more reasonable, and it still performs about as well as the other RTX 5080 machines we’ve tested. Which is to say, very well indeed.<\/p>\n

Key specs: RTX 5080 | Core Ultra 9 275 HX | 16-inch | 1600p | 240 Hz | 16 GB DDR5 | 1 TB SSD |<\/strong>View Deal<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Ah, the MSI Vector 16 HX AI<\/a>. It’s one of our favourite gaming laptops of this generation, mainly because of the sheer value proposition it provides. The RTX 5080-equipped version has been hovering between $2,100 to $2,400 since its release earlier this year, but now it’s dropped to $2,000 at Newegg<\/a> as part of the early Prime Day sales, and that makes it even more of a bargain.<\/p>\n

Relatively speaking, of course. We’re not expecting RTX 5080 laptops to drop much below this price for a while, but $2,000 is still a lot of money. Here you’re getting that all important GPU (in full-fat 175 W TGP config, no less) in tandem with some other speedy hardware for much less than its competition, and that’s worth shouting about.<\/p>\n

Speaking of speedy hardware, the Vector comes with a 240 Hz 1600p IPS panel, which should show off the efforts of the RTX 5080 mobile at their best. It’s not an OLED, of course\u2014but you can’t ask for everything at this price point, and the display here is perfectly decent, and plenty quick.<\/p>\n

What’s also plenty quick is the CPU, the Intel Core Ultra 9 275 HX<\/a>. It’s a 24-core (eight Performance, 16 Efficient) number cruncher with a max boost clock of 5.4 GHz, and a very, very quick mobile chip.<\/p>\n

It’s also hot. Which brings me to the first drawback of this machine, which is the fan noise. The good news, however, is that you can back the fan profiles down to Balanced without losing too much performance, meaning there’s an acceptable compromise to be made between gaming frame rates and earmuffs.<\/p>\n

What else, what else… It would be nice to see more than 16 GB of DDR5 at this price point, but alas. Similarly, the 1 TB Gen 4 SSD it comes with is fine, but it’s not a huge amount of room, especially for a machine with these sorts of specs. Still, both can be easily upgraded, and then you’ll get to take a look at its magnificent copper heatsink design.<\/p>\n

And, while I’m critiquing an otherwise brilliant laptop, it’s worth mentioning it’s also a bit plasticky when it comes to the chassis design. It’s not a bad-looking machine in person, but we’ve certainly seem slimmer and sleeker.<\/p>\n

What we haven’t seen, however, is the mighty 175 W RTX 5080 mobile for any cheaper, and it’s a stonkingly-good mobile gaming GPU. So, if frame rates are the biggest concern in your next gaming laptop purchase\u2014but you don’t want to completely break the bank\u2014the Vector is the laptop I’d plump for as a sheer value proposition. It’s got a few caveats to be aware of, but overall it’s an excellent gaming machine for less than the rest, and a superb early Prime Day deal.<\/p>\n
