The gaming capability on this MSI Raider 18 is awesome. The 4K and 2K visuals are honestly the best I have seen on a non-OLED screen. Everything looks sharp, bright, smooth, and extremely immersive. Performance is outstanding. With the Intel Core Ultra 9 and RTX 5090 Laptop GPU, loading times are drastically shorter, and the system feels almost overpowered for most gaming. For non-competitive gaming, I honestly think balanced power settings are more than enough. It runs incredibly well without needing to push everything to maximum performance mode. Daily work and administrator tasks are handled with extreme ease. Apps open quickly, multitasking is smooth, and there is basically no waiting for things to load unless Windows itself is the reason. The keyboard is responsive and comfortable, and the Windows Hello fingerprint and face support are a huge plus for convenience. Overall, this laptop makes both gaming and work easier because it removes the usual slowdowns, lag, and waiting around.



- Goop, Goop, Goop!




It has been very reliable and pretty snappy even as an inexpensive laptop





Light weight Love the backlit keyboard Plenty of storage space Well packaged, like new




Pretty lightweight, great price point, and enough ports for my college-aged daughter to do everything she needs to do at college. I put Bazzite on this one, integrated with nextcloud and she's had zero problems. It all just works, and works nicely.
