MSI Creator 15: What you need to know
The MSI Creator 15 sports a sleek, black aluminum chassis with a blacked-out MSI logo on the hood. It’s subtle and stylish. Meanwhile, the interior features a compact keyboard, touchpad with a fingerprint reader, and a vent above the keyboard. It comes in at 14.1 x 9.8 x 0.8 inches and 4.6 pounds, making it relatively slim and light. As far as ports go, you’ll get three USB Type-A ports, one Thunderbolt 4 port, one USB Type-C port, an HDMI port, an RJ45 Ethernet port and a headphone jack. For specs, you can get up to an Intel Core i7-10870H CPU, an Nvidia GeForce RTX 3070 Max Q GPU, 16GB of RAM and a 1TB SSD, which will make it more powerful than any MacBook Pro, at least for gaming. The MSI Creator 15’s 15.6-inch display comes in only one option: a 4K, anti-glare panel that covers 100% of the Adobe RGB color gamut. We’re not sure how long this machine will last on a charge, but it is packing a 99.9 Whr battery, which is the largest battery the TSA will approve.
