Why are they pairing 13900HX and 4080 with that screen? Those are 98 percentile parts but the screen is like super budget laptop level stuff

Unless you plan on using this laptop mostly while connected to an external monitor, I can't recommend spending this much on a laptop with a 45% NTSC display. I'm not super picky when it comes to display quality but the muted colors were pretty noticeable on my previous MSI budget gaming laptop with a similar screen.

I suspect that lately "gaming" laptops are bought of AI/ML developers who use the compute capacity of the GPU. Display quality isn't important when you are running an IDE or Jupyter notebook.

This is the costliest laptop with 720p cam. Even on $500 laptops we can find full hd cam now. And screen is also pathetic.

Actually, it has a Core i9 12th Gen 12900H (2.50GHz). According to Newegg at least.

According to MSI's website, it comes with a 12900HX.
