MSI Stealth 16 B3W 2026 RTX 5080 Benchmark & Ask me anything

Hello everyone !

This was my first time ever using MSI laptop here is latest version from Thailand, This probably really early device pair with RTX 5080 and Ram Memory 16 GB (Thailand had 16gb not 32 gb). all comprehensive spec I think can found in their website.

The benchmark with cyberpunk native 2k screen set everything to max I got FPS around 55~60 fps ( no framegen , no up scale raw power)

With really max TGP at 122 Watts from 125.

Speaker I think it can be call as on good ok but sure cannot compare to my MacBook 16.

But it really can call as ok and good.

However right now I notice weird jitter from laptop speaker.

Like audio processing was broken some kind.

Is this bug ?

Quality material I think we can call this as good it light.

Screen was good too.

But for some game like where wind meet it really lagging look like wattage stuck around 40 - 70 watts only.

.

Mount and Blade Banner Lord was holy smooth at default setting 180 fps everything max.

.

Keyboard backlight was bright and crisp.

Trackpad was big smooth look good premium but can heard some crank wobble ?

.

Feel free to asking anything!

.

Oh ! Laptop GPU was very cool it was max at 70 ~ 75 Celsius even though 125 watts running !!

So this probably new landmark of MSI ?

I heard many people said that MSI likely to melt itself all the time 🤣🤣🤣

16 Inch 8 vs 12 VRAM + Comparison from Powerful and Built Quality

Hello everyone !

My current laptop was Zypherus m16 (2022) RTX 3060 (6GB) and RAM 16GB.

I had mainly playing Where Wind Meet game and right now I feel it start to lagging for multi player or single player mode other game I play usally RPG/ CRPG game.
Im person who never using headphone at all, always using laptop speaker so I love to had "good, decent speaker laptop", I also had Macbook M1 16 Inch so I know that how good speaker was, compare to my sad speaker of Zypherus 2022 version.

I had consider this folllowing choice.

Budget: 3,000 USD MAX
Country: Thailand
Use Case: Gaming/ Professional Work (Business Presentation)
Preferred Specs: VRAM 12GB and good built with good speaker audio
Notes:  below

ROG Zypherus G16 RTX 5070TI VRAM 12GB White Color (speaker was premium tier list)

MSI Vector 16 RTX 5080 VRAM 16GB Black, Bulky plastic ?, Black Color

HP OMEN Max16 RTX 5080 VRAM 16GB Black look sleek than MSI Vector ?

MSI Stealth 16 RTX 5070ti VRAM 12GB Black color, do built quality good...?

At first I plan to stop at RTX 5070 VRAM 8GB but from what I just discover that VRAM 8 GB is was a tragic decision due to 5070 had good performance but we will encounter problem about run of the VRAM so I had grit my teeth go to VRAM 12GB only.
https://youtu.be/igBqbkXfgL4?list=LL&t=2361

Becasue from this video VRAM 8 vs 12 show most saddest truth that I jsut discover for people who didn't following gaming latptop since 2022 that VRAM 8GB had only 6 fps... in same setting compare to 67 FPS !!! when have VRAM 12gb with same graphic card series tier....

I really like white color but after i had seen above video so I decided that maybe purchase laptop from color might be bad decision for me so I jsut list all black laptop with high VRAM.

From the list above Zypherus had best of best speaker and in white color but should I going to pick HP ? MSI ? do their speaker any better ? or in acceptable range ?
My Zypherus 2022 version I had consider it as "OK" but I had listen to Acer laptop Nitro or Predator I called that "worst" like they totally forget how speaker even important in media consumption.

Should I just go to VRAM 16 GB ? Is that gonna future proof for next 4 year ?

If I cannot have best speaker then consider about built design do HP OMEN is consider good ?

I didnt follow up much gaming laptop but now when I take a look for today prices "O M G" I think that this maybe last chance before everything price is gone crazy more than this.
