The MSI GF63 Thin 12VE budget gaming laptop featuring NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050 graphics card has a weak spot. It comes with only 8GB or RAM. Is it enough to play the latest games in 2023? Let's find out! Additionally, I tested fan noise, DLSS, as well as NVIDIA Frame Generation.

How do you enable the statistics thingy to check the fps, cpu, gpu etc? The one you have on the left top side of the laptop? Can you pls do a tutorial?

The fingerprint magnet comment and the comment about the placement of the stickers is spot-on. They would be 2 negatives after having mine for a month too. The HDMI sticker is even starting to peel from being rubbed. I'll probably remove them if I can find a solution that will not casue staining/residue etc to the case. The only other things that annoy me a little is the reliance on the function key; would've loved the volume and brightness to be seperate. The placement of the power cord socket is annoying, and the printscreen and delete button being reversed is also terrible. Everytime I want to delete something or close an ingame menu I end up taking a screen shot.

Isopropyl alcohol is a good option to remove such stickers. It makes that sticky glue non-sticky anymore. And you can use microfibre cloth and alcohol to gently rub off any residue.

When you pair this laptop with an ietsGT500 cooling fan, you can game anything on ultra/high settings with 60+ fps UNDER 54”C. I’ve got it hooked up to an external 27” monitor and have been using it to power all of my triple A games. It handles escape from tarkov fantastically

I went with the Cyborg 15 with 4060 cuz when i felt GF and Katana in store i knew enough. So i went with the 45watt 4060 over a higher watt 4060 just cuz the build felt sturdier on the Cyborg. Performance is verry decent if you enable Resize bar. Have it for over a year now without any issues yett. But if the hinge ever wil break ill just buy new hinge and front and back panel. Still haven't had any hinge issues yet.

Is it good to stream games on?

@theivadim 4 ай бұрын

Do you mean use it to stream games on a cloud gaming service like GeForce Now? Or play games and stream it to Twitch kind of streaming? The answer to the first one is yes. But second option... I don't know. Probably yes, since thanks to hardware media engines included in GPUs and CPUs these day allow doing it with very little resources used. Gone are the days when you had to have a powerful CPU to stream on Twitch.

One thing that I'll say is - get a laptop with at least 16GB of RAM memory. The one I use in this video has only 8GB and it is not good in 2024 if you want to play the latest games. Also, you'll need a bit more memory to run your streaming software properly.

You also have 8GB of RAM? It's possible that's why. Elden Ring calls for a minimum of 12GB. While some games can run OK, others will stutter to the point of being unpleasant to play.

Hello, I do not know how the situation is in your country, but you can choose Lenovo LoQ or Acer Nitro instead of a thin model MSI. Also, I do not think there is much difference between 2050 and 3050, so you can also choose a Victus with 2050. Among all these, my suggestion is LoQ or Nitro.

@@SyukriJuperi Yes, 4050 is much better than 3050. Besides all these, if your budget is enough for 4060, I recommend you to buy it. Because while 4050 and some 3050s have 6 GB VRAM, 4060s have 8 GB VRAM and this makes a big difference in games.

Did fortnite run smooth ?

@theivadim 6 ай бұрын

Nope. You can see it in the video. It is stuttering a lot. Don't know what's up with that since Fortnite isn't a demanding game and in theory should run fine on this laptop. Maybe it's just the way the game runs... I don't play Fortnite regularly, so don't know. I've heard somewhere that Fortnite doesn't pre-load shaders. It just loads them real-time when they appear on the screen, hence why stuttering happens. That is a major technical flaw of the game if true. Do you know anything about this issue?
