MSI Thin 15 (B12Ux / B12Vx / B13Ux / B13Vx) in-depth review
In 2024, the market offers a lot of budget gaming laptops and some of them are pretty capable for their price. One of the notable mentions in this category is the Acer Nitro V 15 (ANV15-41) which is a great bang for the buck but has one bad flaw - the super high noise during CPU-heavy tasks. On the other hand, we got the MSI Thin 15 B12U which is also an inexpensive gaming machine and it looks pretty sleek for its class.This one is offered with Intel Alder Lake-H CPUs and up to RTX 3050 with 4GB VRAM. The 12th Gen 45W chips are still a good choice for the budget segment. They pack tons of [...]

MSI Katana 15 (B12Ux / B12Vx / B13Ux / B13Vx) in-depth review
From all of the gibberish on MSI's official Website, we learn one thing - the Katana is no longer called the GF66. Instead, it follows its weapon cousin - the Sword, in adopting the simpler "15" moniker. This will make the two devices ever so harder to differentiate. However, we are here for only one of them today - the MSI Katana 15 (B13V).It comes with a 13th Gen Intel processor. While it is the somewhat crippled Core i7-13620H, we have high expectations for its gaming performance. Consisting of 6 P-cores and 4 E-cores, it should be a rather efficient unit.On the graphics side, you [...]

Dell G15 5530 in-depth review
While it has plenty of knowledge from its Alienware brand, Dell insists to make its G-series gaming notebooks its own way. With compromises and at least one thing that makes absolutely no sense.For the past couple of years, this particular feature is the weight. In a world where gaming laptops are getting progressively lighter and thinner, Dell makes machines that simulate a shoulder workout in less than 15 minutes.Nevertheless, all of this might be for a reason, because we have noticed that the manufacturer has equipped its G15 5530 with a 140W RTX 4050. Yet again, the RTX 4000 GPU l[...]

ASUS TUF Gaming F15 (FX507, 2023) in-depth review
With the rise of inflation, budget gaming notebooks are no longer very affordable. However, manufacturers have done their fair share of the price increase, by making these products with higher-quality materials.In addition to that, NVIDIA and Intel introduced an incredibly powerful lineup of GPUs and CPUs recently, but again - they are no longer the bargain they used to be. On the bright side, even the RTX 4050 (which now finally comes with 6GB of GDDR6 VRAM) is capable of crushing every game at 1080p and max settings.The laptop we're going to talk about today is the ASUS TUF Gaming F[...]

MSI Cyborg 15 (A12Ux / A12Vx / A13Ux / A13Vx) in-depth review
Right from the get-go the MSI seems to overhype their Cyborg 15 (A12V). They say it is "the most ground-breaking gaming laptop". Why? Perhaps because of its translucent body parts that let you see almost nothing on the inside.Or maybe because of the performance, which should not be bad, considering the fact that it features the latest tech from NVIDIA in the form of RTX 4000 GPUs. However, they are working at only 45W of TGP.In addition, the CPUs of choice include the Core i7-12650H, and Core i7-13620H - processors that have half the E-core count of their more powerful cousins.
