15.6" QHD 165Hz Gaming Laptop

The MSI Katana pairs a 15.6-inch IPS panel at 2560 x 1440 resolution with a 165 Hz refresh rate and full DCI-P3 coverage. An Intel Core i7-14650HX processor with 16 cores and 24 threads drives the system alongside an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 GPU with 8GB GDDR7 memory. Windows 11 Home and Copilot+ PC features complete the platform for gamers and creators who need high frame rates and colour accuracy.

64GB DDR5 5600 and 2TB Gen 4x4 NVMe

The laptop ships with 64GB of DDR5 5600 memory and a 2TB PCIe Gen 4x4 NVMe SSD, giving ample headroom for modern titles, streaming and multitasking. Memory runs at 5600 MHz and the drive uses a fast NVMe interface, so large game installs and asset-heavy workloads load quickly. Very heavy production tasks may eventually saturate the 8GB video memory on the RTX 5070.

4-Zone RGB Keyboard and Connectivity

A four-zone RGB backlit keyboard with anti-ghost keys provides per-zone lighting control and reliable input during intense sessions. Ports include three USB Type-A, one USB Type-C, HDMI, RJ-45 10/100/1000Mbps LAN and a headphone/microphone combo jack. Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3 handle wireless duties while a 55.2Wh battery powers the 4.29 lb chassis measuring 14.13 x 10.31 x 0.99 inches.
