Before people ask, the memory is replaceable, it's 2x4 DDR5-4800 sticks (according to Best Buy product description), so to go to 16 GB, you'll need to buy 2x8 DDR5 sticks.

This laptop is a joke.
Display is 250-nits, 45% NTSC. More importantly, the 4060 is only 45W!

Yeah. The 45W 4060 is really really weird. It makes me wonder if you can flash a higher power bios later.

I would say go ahead and upgrade to 32GB for $84.99 directly from Crucial. Great all-around laptop for the price.

Then add a 1TB Gen4 M.2 for $49.99 and you are pretty well set up for ~$935 + tax.

Much better.
You're getting a more powerful/efficient and newer processor and a 105W 4060. That alone is worth the $90 jump.

The recently posted Lenovo LOQ 4060 deal for around $979 is better than both if you can pull out another $100.

Thank you. I thought that was a great deal and my sons friend ordered one on my recommendation. I jumped into prior thread and was worried for a sec when I couldn't find the wattage of the 4060 on that one.

not exactly at the same price bracket but https://www.newegg.com/obsidian-b...6834360253 is a much better buy with 1440P 165hz ips display with great color coverage and quite a bit better gpu.

I hate that manufactures can lock in the power usage of the GPUs now because it makes it much more difficult for consumers to compare laptops. Like what is the fps of a 45w 4060? Is it like a 3060 at 130w? A 4050 at 95w?

MSI should be ashamed of themselves. At this point in time, 8 gigs of system memory in an $1100 MSRP laptop is a farking joke.

250 nits is fine in a normal lit room. Unless your regularly playing games in the out doors 250 is fine

It's nonsense. Let's them skimp on cooling and pretend to be offering products comparable to others, while the consumer ends up confused and screwed.
And I thought MaxQ was bad enough.
Wasn't that long ago if a manufacturer wanted to offer a certain GPU then they had to engineer a design that met the TDP requirement. In fact that is what TDP literally is (its not actually the "power usage", its the cooling dissipation requirement for optimal performance).
Its completely inverted to "lower the TDP" of a part, rather than increase the cooling to meet the part's TDP
But we live in age of soldered ram and 1280x768 TN screens still being used

250 is fine when new in a normal lit room. But brightness drops steadily with age. After 3 years this screen will be a LOT dimmer. That's the part I try to warn people about.
