MSI Sword 15″ (Sword)

Laptop summary

MSI Sword is a Windows gaming laptop. It doesn't have the best Intel processor and also less memory than it's rivals for its price. The laptop has the GeForce RTX 3050 Ti graphics card that is unremarkable for playing games. You can run older games on recommended settings, but using lower graphics settings you can play 40% of the games published this year. Full HD resolution is fine for the 15″ 144 Hz display. The 500gb SSD storage is less than average. It is quite hefty at 4.95 lbs.
