This time of year we are starting to see different brands updating their laptops.

Intel lent us MSI Titanium GT77HX 13Vwith his powerful Intel Core i9-13950HX.

Design and display

The laptop is more like a workstation, with its characteristics (we will talk about them later) weighs more than 3 kilograms.

17.3″ 4K (3840 x 2160) screen with MiniLED technology and 144Hz refresh rate.

Specifications

As we have already assumed, the brain of this laptop is the Intel Core i9 processor.13950XX, with 8 cores/16 threads for performance and 16 cores for efficiency. All this in 55 watts.

The Intel Core i9-13950HX can push Turbo Max up to 5500MHz.

He also has RTX 3090 mobile with 16GB GDDR6 VRAM and 175W max output.

64 GB of RAM is more than enough for a super-powerful laptop.

With such power, it is clear that you need a fairly large power adapter (and there is one).

connectivity

This MSI laptop has a large number of ports: 1 Thunderbolt 4 Type C with Power Delivery charging, 1 Thunderbolt 4 Type C, 3 USB Type A 3.2 Gen 2, 1 SD reader, 1 HDMI 2.1, 1 Mini-DisplayPort and classic RJ45 (ethernet).

In addition, it has Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3.

Experience

This configuration allows us to play 4K smoothly with red dead redemption 2 reaches an average of 103 fps, although our 1% lows reach 35 fps. However, let’s remember: we’re playing with everything at max 4K.

It’s impressive how we achieve this kind of performance with a maximum power of 230W between CPU and GPU.

CPU temperature? It’s always high in a laptop, but with the 55W Intel Core i9-13950 HX, we don’t see big jumps. If we need it, we’re going to go over 80°C, which is fine for this form factor. Similarly, it’s always best to use headphones so you don’t lose focus when the fans are doing their job.

In tests, the performance of this mobile CPU is slightly lower than that of Intel Core i7-13700K desktop, but better than the one found in Intel Core i9-12900KS the previous generation. Great milestone for Intel in terms of mobile processors.

Results in Geekbench 6 and Cinebench R23.

Should I buy MSI Titan GT77HX 13V?

It’s time to take a look at the bank account. This laptop costs over $5,000 in the US.

If you only need it for gaming, it would make much more sense to buy a laptop equipped for 2K gaming instead of 4K, or just build a desktop PC.

On the other hand, if you have a job that requires a lot of computing power, you have to constantly move, and games are an important part of your life, this is an alternative to evaluate.

And if.  It has enough RGB to satisfy the gamer who is a fan of these lights.
