MSI Laptop Katana GF66 11UE 15.6" Intel i5 16GB 512GB RTX3060 W11H 2Y-WTY
Seems pretty decent price but I am not expert so would be good if people share their experience and knowledge.
Thanks
They are very well trained.
Low wattage GPU at 85W. Won’t perform as well as the Kraken. RAM and Storage are upgradable
I believe the USB-C port on this model doesn't support alt mode and so can't be used to drive a second monitor (ie in addition to the HDMI port).
Worth keeping in mind if you need support for more than one external monitor.
i5-11400H for reference. 6C/12T
45% NTSC means weak color space reproduction (dull colors).
Low TDP 3060 at 85W.
Ok considering form factor and price but don’t expect as high fps as higher wattage 3060 laptops
On paper better than the Acer Nitro with same specs.
not really. nitro is 95w vs 85w on the katana, also for as bad as nitros cooling is, its better than the katana which havent been updated in years. one of the fans is extremely small and drives only one small heatsink and exhaust out.
Wow would have thought msi would have better thermal design.
High end MSI is very good, the lower end GF, GL and crosshair ones? Terrible. MSI have completely neglected their lower end designs and while they may have received some visual updates on the external chasis the inside is…how should I explain it-Ive seen better cooling on my 2016 metabox(clevo) rig. Take look at this and tell me its not a sad piece of electronic waste that have no place in 2022.
Waiting for another Intel NUC Kraken Deal… fingers crossed
waiting for the nuc kraken which has the thunderbolt port too.
waiting for the nuc kraken which has 17" too
