Review on MSI 2021 GF63 Thin Gaming 15 Laptop - 15.6" FHD IPS, Intel Quad-Core i5-10300H, 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD, GeForce GTX 1650 4GB, Backlit Keyboard, WiFi6, Win10 + HDMI Cable by Doyun Siu ᠌

The product is okay, it's not a waste of money!

The laptop is thin and light, with an aluminum lid. It operates quite noisily and can reach temperatures of 75C. The Deepcool Wind PAL laptop stand is helpful despite the overworked cooling system and the absence of the second fan. Samsung's RAM is only 8 GB and runs at 2933 MHz CL21, which is SLOW and LOW. However, you can add a second memory bar, which is REQUIRED for this model! I made the decision to upgrade all of the memory to HyperX 2x8Gb 2993MHz CL17, which significantly improved gaming performance (in Hunt: Showdown FPS increased from 60-75 to 90-120). According to tests, the 3050TI 40W video card is one of the least powerful versions available; it performs similarly to a 1060 with 3GB of RAM. On ultras, you can play games like CSGO, DOTA, and WOT without any issues. The screen is matte IPS 144 Hz, and even at maximum brightness, I find it to be a little gloomy.

Pros
  • - Aluminum cased laptop that is lightweight (top cover and keyboard panel) - IPS matte screen running at 144 Hz - i5 10500H processor (6 cores and 12 threads)
Cons
  • - 8GB in total of Samsung DDR4 2933MHz CL21 Memory. - The display is dim even at its highest brightness - Loud under load - CO operates at its maximum, causing the CPU to constantly reset the frequencies
