16-inch QHD+ 240 Hz Gaming Laptop

The MSI Vector A16 pairs a 16-core Ryzen 9 8940HX processor with an RTX 5070 Ti GPU and a 16.0-inch 2560 x 1600 IPS panel running at 240 Hz. It targets gamers and creators who need high refresh rates and multi-threaded performance in a portable chassis.

32 GB DDR5 memory and 2 TB NVMe storage

The 32 GB of DDR5 5600 MHz RAM handles modern AAA titles, streaming and heavy multitasking with headroom to spare. The 2 TB PCIe Gen 4x4 SSD offers fast load times, though the 12 GB GDDR7 video memory may become the limiting factor in future 4K texture packs.

Thunderbolt 5 ports and Wi-Fi 7 connectivity

Two USB-C ports support Thunderbolt 5 for 40 Gbps external GPUs or high-speed storage arrays. Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4 reduce wireless latency for competitive play, while the 99-key per-key RGB keyboard and 1080p IR webcam with privacy shutter complete the feature set.

Questions about this item

Will the 2.1 HDMI port on this laptop drive my older 60 Hz monitor at its native resolution?

Yes, the HDMI 2.1 output can run a 60 Hz display at up to 2560 x 1600 without any adapter.

How can I verify the 240 Hz panel and RTX 5070 Ti are running at full speed after I set up Windows?

Open the NVIDIA control panel and confirm the display is set to 240 Hz; GPU-Z will show the RTX 5070 Ti with 12 GB GDDR7 memory.

Does the box include a Thunderbolt 5 cable for an external GPU enclosure, or must I buy one separately?

The 330 W power adapter and regional cord are included; a certified Thunderbolt 5 cable for an eGPU is not in the box.
