Analysis and Specifications
Ocean Computers have many laptops from MSI. But most of them are in high range. Actually, they are famous for high-end products. The average starting price is around Rs 1,00,000 ($1000). Then from there, it goes high above. There are mainly gaming-focused products. Most of them have a good chassis, SteelSeries keyboard, thick body, and good cooling solution. Some lineup like Prestige and Modern have thin body and design.
The new thin design is all possible due to powerful but less heat-producing processors and graphics cards. New 8th, 9th, and 10th generation Intel mobile processors are one main reason. Latest AMD mobile processors have also gotten really efficient, and they are also changing the scenario. Most importantly, Nvidia’s graphics chip has also been improved.
These days we get full desktop-level power in mobile GPU. All of this is making the computing market very good. Due to all these improvements in new processors and graphics cards, AIO systems are also getting better. Anyways the specifications and hardware power of portable computers or laptops are improving exponentially, which is good for everyone.
High-End MSI Gaming Laptops
There are different lineups in the company’s catalog. We want to explain easily so we have divided them in our way. We have divided them into gaming and professional series. The laptops with a bulky build and good cooling are in the gaming section, while thin ones are in the business section.
According to the company, powerful and high-level computers are mostly bought by gamer and professionals. They include graphics editors, CAD designers, analysts, and digital architects. Nowadays, powerful GPU is more in use for research cryptography. All engineering fields require a powerful computer. The laptop provides very good convenience in portability and power. This is the reason why gaming hardware is more in demand.
There are professionals who want extreme power for themselves. Most of them buy a desktop PC with good graphics cards. But if you are a person who wants portability and power you should get a good gaming laptop.
GF Thin Series
These are laptops from MSI with good hardware in a relatively thin and small chassis. It is not as big and heavy as other series. It is quite good for home users, students and normal office users. The gaming series laptops in this lineup have enough hardware power to run all normal software, application and do good gaming as well.
GF63 Thin 9RCX
- Processor: Intel Core i5 9300H/ Core i7 9750
- Graphics: Nvidia GTX 1050 Ti 4GB
- Memory: 8 GB DDR4 at 2666 MHz
- Storage: 1 TB HDD
- Display: 15.6″ Panel with 1920×1080 resolution
- Battery: 3 Cell 51 Whr
This is one of the cheapest models and it comes with an FHD screen and a quad-core processor with 8 MB L3 cache. The company is also including its best SteelSeries keyboard with GF63 thin.
There is another a bit expensive variant with Core i7 9750H which is a six-core processor. The graphics card is the same but there are some other perks. One best thing is there is 512 GB NVME M.2 SSD inside with the 1 TB HDD. In the official MSI laptops price list, the price of 9SC and 9RCX are the same. However, market selling prices are different.
GF63 Thin 9SC
- Processor: Core i5 9300H
- Graphics: Nvidia GTX 1650 MaxQ 4GB
- Memory: 8 GB DDR4 at 2666 MHz
- Storage: 512 GB NVME SSD
- Display: 15.6″ LCD with FHD resolution
- Battery: 3 Cell 51 Whr
This is very similar to the GF63 Thin RCX and the only main difference is in the graphics card. It uses new 16 series GTX 1650 instead of GTX 1050 Ti. One another difference is that there is no 1 TB hard disk. Instead of that, we only get 512 GB M.2 SSD.
GL Series
This is another lineup that includes more powerful laptops. According to the company’s site, it sits below the Raider and Leopard line. It is just above the GF Thin on the website. Here we see RTX graphics cards, more RAM, and even better hardware.

This laptop has an RGB keyboard, nice aesthetics, and an awesome screen. The internal hardware can also support games and push them to 120 fps so that you can enjoy 120 Hz gaming. There is another GL65 PSDK with the same specs, but that has just one thing different. It comes with 256 GB SSD and 1 TB HDD. The RAM on GL65 is also running at 2666 MHz. This is the sole reason for the high price.

- Graphics Card: RTX 2060 6GB GDDR6
- Memory: 16 GB DDR4 RAM at 2666 MHz
- Storage: 1 TB HDD + 256 GB NVME SSD
- Display: 15.6″ IPS -Level FHD 144 Hz screen

This is a high range gaming series laptop with a very good processor and new RTX 20 series graphics card. The new Nvidia Geforce RTX cards have ray tracing, DLSS, and tensor cores. They are powerful than normal 16 series GPU but on top, they have ray tracing capability.
In the market GL63 9SEK is also available. That one has the same hardware except for storage. The GL65 has a combination of hard disk and solid-state drive but the GL63 only has 512 GB SSD. You can pick that up too, but as we all know, we can alter with storage in the future as needed.
GP Leopard Series
This series has more powerful laptop models. It is fourth in the hierarchy. The Leopard series is also very popular. In Nepal, we don’t see many people buying these expensive high-end computers. However, we still have the options to choose from.

- Battery: 6 Cell 51 Whr
We are seeing the same processor in most of the systems here. It is very good to see that 6 core chips are now in the mainstream. The GP65 Leopard is a bit expensive compared to its GL series counterpart because it has a big SSD instead of HDD. It is on a quite heavier side with 2.33 Kg weight, so it is not that portable.

Conclusion
Almost the laptops above mentioned are high-grade systems with top-notch best quality hardware. These products can do various things. There are powerful hardwares inside many of them.

These things are replacing desktops these days. We actually like the Prestige series for its size and power.
For people looking into video editing, graphics designing, and other demanding engineering works, we suggest getting a Core i7 model with RTX 2060 at least. You can go up to RTX 2070 or RTX 2080 Ti according to your budget. As far as possible, buy models with SSD and good display. We recommend Prestige 15 A10SC for compactness and GE65 Raider 9SF for power and performance.
