Geared for higher performance the laptops at MSI fall into three main categories which are Gaming, Content Creators and Work Stations. The gaming line is their more commonly known range, with a host of options that are designed with just that in mind. High-end graphics cards are common in these machines, to render smooth graphics. The main processors are also the more powerful ones to be able to handle the heavy load of a game. With SSDs that are the new NVMe PCIe Gen3, in comparison to the older SATA SSDs. This makes for super-fast read and write times, making storage-related tasks quick. There are variants that allow up to 128GB of RAM or the lower end which is still a large 64GB. MSI makes gaming laptops mostly in black, with simple line design. The Titan range though has white and is the top end, with chunkier laptops that have more powerful cooling systems.

The content creator segment of MSI laptops is for people who are working on a graphic element in their tasks. With the same ability as gaming laptops to be powerful machines that can take on complex tasks. These are geared for makers of content, whether it is video editing, music production or graphic design. The work station line is among some of the most powerful laptops available, with a leaning towards even more high-performance tasks such as 3D modelling. The work station line from MSI laptops are certified by industry-leading Independent Software Vendors. 

MSI is able to improve their cooling system, this alone is why they are more expensive than laptops in a similar spec range from Dell, Lenovo and HP. The better cooling means their laptop performs better even with the same specs, heating is the main source of a system tiring out. MSI laptops are costly due to the build and powerful components.
