80% MSI Katana 15 HX Review: A Surprisingly Effective Budget Gamer
Source: PC Mag EN→zh-CN
For entry-level shoppers, the MSI Katana 15 HX gives gamers most of what they need. A larger SSD would be better, but that’s how the cost quickly rises away from the $1,000 mark. That’s its biggest limitation, though the chunkier plastic body and dim screen are also worth noting. The biggest offset to all that? The RTX 5050 GPU serves up quite a bit of gaming performance for the price, though, as we see more laptops with the lower-tier RTX 5050 and 5060 GPUs roll out, that won’t be unique to the Katana. Despite all that, the Katana hits the main marks for a budget gaming laptop. The battery life is decent, the inputs are comfortable, the ports are plentiful, and the parts generate potent mainstream computing performance.

72% I Tested MSI's $999 Gaming Laptop and Liked Its 1080p Performance but Little Else

If you want the best frame rates for the lowest price, then it's a solid pick. But you'll need to live with some budget touches, the worst of which is the dim display. If you can extend your gaming laptop budget from $1,000 to around $1,300, then the Acer Nitro V 16S AI or Lenovo Legion 5i provides a brighter display, lighter design, higher-resolution webcam and bump to RTX 5060 graphics along with double the RAM and storage.

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050 Laptop GPU:

基于 Ada Lovelace 架构的笔记本电脑中端显卡。提供 6 GB GDDR6（96 位），可配置为 35 - 115W 的 TGP（+ 动态升压）。

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 Laptop: Blackwell 系列入门级显卡，适用于 Latpops，具有 2,560 个统一着色器（CUDA 内核），时钟频率为 1500 - 2662 MHz（取决于 TDP 设置）。根据 Nvidia 的说法，在不使用 DLSS 和帧生成的情况下，其性能应与 RTX 4060 相当。

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Laptop: Blackwell 系列即将推出的笔记本电脑显卡，Team Green 很可能会在 2025 年的 CES 上展示这款显卡。考虑到 4070 笔记本电脑拥有 4608 个统一着色器（CUDA 内核），5070 很可能拥有远超过 5000 个着色器。
