Q: Is the RAM speed really only 4400?
A: I just got mine and that was the first thing I checked. Sticker says DDR5 5600mhz — check attached pic. Will verify once in the OS but wanted to share since 4400mhz DDR5 seemed nuts at this spec laptop.
A: This laptop supports NVMe M.2 SSD drives in size 2280. If your SSD fits this description it should work fine.
A: It support 1440 by default resolution? Or its only 4k and full hd ? Thank you for you fast answer btw . I already ordered.
A: When I play heavy games, the fan kicks in but it’s not that loud, and I don’t really care as long as it keeps the laptop cool. I’m not sure how loud the MSI gets, so I can’t say if this one is louder or not. I also use a cooling pad just to be safe.
Q: Are these specifications correct? 240Hz 4K Mini LED
A: The refresh rate is actually: 4K at 120Hz and FHD at 240Hz.
A: Yes, if u can still find any left.

Laptop has the power to perform at the highest level, even with the most unoptimized games on the market (Tarkov). Screen is big and bright. The new generation of cooling fans keep the laptop/keyboard cool even under load. Fans can get loud when ramped up to cool down, but quickly dissipate the heat and the noise returns to normal range, seems standard for gaming laptops using so much power these days. The RGB lighting can be distracting while gaming, but easily turned down/off or adjusted to personal preference. Availability to increase RAM from a hearty 64 gig to 128g max or adding additional hard drives to the empty slots is also very nice perk when purchasing a new rig with "future proofing" in mind. Would recommended this laptop to any serious gamer looking for the convenience of portability.

Very colorful. I purchased this for a heavy software development and its been doing the job very well so far. Cons: It does not last long enough on battery, the fan can be loud and it’s super heavy. I got mine for 3500. The screen is so beautiful and bright.

I got mine for 3500 a couple weeks ago; if you’re going to get it id get it on a discount. Blackfriday or holiday discount . I also have a 4080 18” last years model.. honestly the screen difference is not that significant tbh. I would have gotten another 4080 if they were still some new ones. if youre an average gamer and not in the professionals.. id even go for a 5080 but considering the 5090 was at 3500 i got it.
