A major hardware upgrade introduced by NVIDIA was that it finally bumped up the VRAM on its RTX 5000 series of laptop GPUs. Sure, the RTX 5060 and RTX 5070 remain gimped at 8GB of GDDR7 video memory, which is why you will have more than enough reason to pick up the MSI Vector 16 HX gaming laptop, which is equipped with a fully-powered RTX 5070 Ti, which ships with 12GB of GDDR7 framebuffer. Available for $1,799.99 on Amazon, it is one of the finest ‘price to performance’ laptops that you can get at this price, and you are guaranteed RTX 4080 laptop-level framerates.
On top of that, you can experience NVIDIA’s exclusive technologies like ray tracing, DLSS, and Multi Frame Generation. Since these features utilize more VRAM, you will probably be glad that the Vector 16 HX AI is loaded with the RTX 5070 Ti. However, you should not make a gaming laptop purchase solely based on the graphics processor, as there are other specifications to consider. For instance, the gaming laptop is equipped with a 16-inch FHD+ IPS LCD panel, which sports a 1,920 x 1,200 resolution and runs up to 144Hz.
Paired with the RTX 5070 Ti, you get an Intel Core Ultra 7 255HX CPU, 16GB of DDR5 RAM, and a 512GB PCIe NVMe Gen 4 SSD. Additionally, MSI’s Vector 16 HX has the latest Thunderbolt 5 port, a Wi-Fi 6E adapter, and is running Windows 11 right off the bat. Both the storage and memory can be upgraded in the future if you feel these are limiting your gaming and productivity experiences.
Those looking for a bargain will likely point out that this powerhouse is only equipped with a FHD+ screen. Sadly, the QHD+ panel is a $350 premium, which we feel is not justified, but if you really want the RTX 5070 Ti to work for those frames, you can entertain that upgrade too.
