Second Chance MSI Katana 15 B13VFK-013BE
Pros and cons
- You can play medium demanding games at 60 fps and stream your gameplay in Full HD with the RTX 4060 video card, the i7 processor, and 16GB RAM.
- The 144Hz screen shows fast-moving images smoothly, which is useful for fast shooters.
- Set your favorite colors on the RGB backlit keyboard with 4 adjustable zones, so that you can continue gaming in the dark in style.
- If you want to play demanding games, we recommend at least an RTX 4070 or RX 6700 video card.
- Due to the 2.25kg weight, this laptop is less easy to take with you in your backpack or laptop bag.
