MSI Thin 15: The Entry Point Into MSI Gaming

The Thin 15 is the least expensive way into MSI's gaming range. It is a 15.6-inch machine roughly 21.7 mm thick and 1.86 kg, built on 12th and 13th-generation Intel H-series processors such as the Core i5-13420H and Core i7-13620H, with a discrete NVIDIA RTX laptop GPU and a 144 Hz IPS-level panel. First gaming laptop, student machine or a second system for the lounge: that is the audience.

Two things separate one listing from another, and both are easy to read. The graphics tier is where the money goes, since the chassis, the 1920 x 1080 panel and the DDR4-3200 memory standard stay the same across the line. Memory sits in SO-DIMM slots rather than soldered to the board, so a 16 GB machine can be taken further later without replacing the laptop.
