Emulation review also by ETA Prime:
https://youtu.be/xbKGl1EqgLg
- The type of ports available on this is just like that of the older 15-cx from 2018, namely three usb-a 3.1, one usb-c with DP, one HDMI 2.0.
- i5-9300H is nearly the same in single and multicore as i5-8300H from the older 2018 model.
- GTX 1650 is an incremental upgrade over the old 1050ti. It's about 20+% faster.
Alternative deal with AMD Ryzen 5 4600H CPU for the same price:

Review of identical hardware (except for display) laptop with DELL branding:

Best Buy (BB) vs Walmart (WM) version comparizon:
- The Walmart version has an IPS screen (TN on BB version) with better viewing angles, and higher 250 nit brightness (220 nit on BB version).
- The Walmart version has a USB 3.1 Gen 2 with Power Delivery (PD) and Display Port (DP) support, which means you can have up to 3 displays (laptop screen + 1 via HDMI +1 via USB-C to HDMI). (BB version can only support 2 displays: laptop screen + 1 via HDMI).
- The Walmart version has a newer housing/exhaust/hinge design, with improved cooling to accommodate the.power consumption of the Intel i5 9300H CPU (2 large exhaust ports on either side of the hinge).
- The Best Buy version has a newer, faster and more power efficient AMD Ryzen 5 4600H CPU, which means longer battery life when unplugged.
- The Best Buy version comes with faster 3200Mhz RAM (WM version has 2666Mhz RAM).
- The Best Buy version has a previous housing/exhaust/hinge design, since the AMD does not require the improved cooling of the newer design (one narrow exhaust port right on the hinge).

I couldn't get a link to the slickdeals page, but this was the heading for that page.

Search here for MSI.
Enter MSI in the search bar....you will see several items, including the deal I referred to.

I assume it isn't a fantastic deal as it hasn't really been discussed much and doesn't have it's own thread.
I can't find this PC on Crucial (already ordered it btw) but is the RAM upgradable?
Thanks.

Bought the laptop for light gaming (mostly strategy/sim games) and regular PC use. Web surfing, doing taxes, typing reports, etc.
Thanks in advance guys!
