MSI Katana 15 15.6 QHD 165Hz i7-14650HX RTX 5070 8GB 64GB 1TB gaming laptop

Built for high-refresh gaming

The Katana 15 pairs a 15.6-inch QHD panel at 165 Hz with an Intel Core i7-14650HX and GeForce RTX 5070 graphics. Sixteen cores and 24 threads handle modern titles and background tasks, while 64 GB of DDR5 4800 memory and a 1 TB PCIe SSD keep load times short. Windows 11 Pro ships pre-installed.

Display and GPU limits

The 2560 x 1440 resolution and 165 Hz refresh rate demand consistent frame pacing from the RTX 5070 and its 8 GB of GDDR7 memory. HDMI output supports external monitors, but the laptop panel itself is non-touch and fixed at the stated resolution and refresh. Wi-Fi uses 802.11ac; no newer wireless standard is present.

Check power and ports before ordering

The chassis measures 14.13 x 10.31 x 0.99 inches and weighs 5.29 pounds, so verify bag or sleeve fit. Ports include three USB Type-A, two USB Type-C, one HDMI, one RJ45 and a combo audio jack — confirm your peripherals match. The factory seal is opened for the memory and storage upgrade; the original one-year manufacturer warranty covers remaining components.
