15.6" 144Hz gaming laptop

The MSI Katana 15 combines a 15.6 inch Full HD display running at 144Hz with an Intel Core i7-14650HX processor that has 16 cores and 24 threads. It ships with Windows 11 Pro and 64GB of DDR5 4800 memory. The 2TB PCIe SSD provides the primary storage.

GeForce RTX 5050 8GB GDDR7

The graphics subsystem is an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 laptop GPU with 8GB of GDDR7 video memory. This discrete card determines the gaming and creative performance ceiling for the system. It connects to external displays through an HDMI 2.1 port.

64GB DDR5 and 2TB PCIe SSD

The 64GB DDR5 4800 configuration handles heavy multitasking, large content-creation projects and modern game textures without paging. The 2TB PCIe SSD holds a full game library and working files. When memory demand exceeds 64GB or storage fills past 2TB the system will rely on slower virtual memory or external drives.

Questions about this item

What does the 144Hz refresh rate mean for daily use on this 15.6" FHD panel?

The 144Hz panel refreshes the image 144 times per second, so fast motion in games or video playback stays sharp without visible tearing on the 1920 x 1080 display.

Which video-output standard does the HDMI port use and what resolution can it drive?

The HDMI 2.1 port can drive an external monitor at up to 4K resolution and high refresh rates, limited only by the attached display's capabilities.

What are the chassis dimensions and weight so I can check bag fit?

The laptop measures 14.13 x 10.31 x 0.99 inches and weighs 5.29 pounds, fitting most 15.6-inch sleeves and backpacks.
