The 4050 is probably the best -50 series card they've released so far. This card handles basically every game out there at 1080p without much trouble and is also a lot more power efficient than previous generations.

I'm from Nicaragua and I bought this thing in Microcenter like 3 weeks ago and I can't wait longer to start using that beast. It would have been great if you guys talked a little bit more about the specs and test it in more games, but still an amazing video.

You spent more time talking about the stickers than the actual build quality and screen of the laptop lol. What makes this laptop not great for the $, is the terrible build quality and a bad screen with low brightness, weak color gamut, and slow response times. You also get a USB-A 2.0 port and the USB-C doesn't do display port, so you can only do HDMI. I also wouldn't trust the hinges on this laptop lasting considering past budget MSI laptops have always had hinge issues. A lenovo Ideapad, Dell G15, or Asus TUF are all better options for budget tier 4050 laptops or last gen stuff. I've seen 3060 laptops with bigger batteries, much better screens and build quality, better ports,etc. in the US go for as low as $850-$900.

Replace the 3070ti when you won't receive driver updates anymore or if it will die or make coolwhine. Replace the 5800x if you think it will help you at the tasks you do on PC or if it will solve any annoying problem you might have.

why would you buy that 4050? Its gonna have to worst price to performance.
