MSI Thin 15 Raider gaming laptop

Core i7 13620H and RTX 4050

The MSI Thin 15 Raider is a 15.6 inch gaming laptop built around an Intel Core i7 13620H processor with ten cores and sixteen threads. It pairs that CPU with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050 laptop GPU carrying six gigabytes of video memory. The system ships with 64GB of DDR5 memory and a 1TB PCIe SSD running Windows 11 Home.

144Hz FHD display for competitive play

The 15.6 inch FHD panel runs at 1920 x 1080 resolution with a 144Hz refresh rate, suited to fast-paced shooters and esports titles. Content creators who need wider colour coverage or higher resolution should look at a different panel. The chassis measures 14.13 x 9.99 x 0.85 inches and weighs 4.1 pounds, so frequent travellers may prefer a lighter ultraportable.

RTX 4050 6GB decides the graphics ceiling

The single specification that determines whether this is the right part is the GeForce RTX 4050 with 6GB VRAM. It sets the ceiling for ray-traced titles, texture-heavy workloads and external monitor performance at 1080p and 1440p. If your workflow demands more video memory or higher compute tiers, select a model with a larger GPU.
