MSI is kicking off its Computex announcements with four laptops that couldn't be more different. Sure, there are some new business laptops and a new AMD gaming machine, and we'll get to those, but can we focus on the fact that MSI is making a laptop with Mercedes?
The flagship announcement is a variant on its Stealth 16 laptop: the Stealth 16 Mercedes-AMG Motorsport. MSI is pushing the laptop as a "luxury gaming experience," and insists that this collaboration makes sense because both MSI and Mercedes-AMG are focused on performance and elegant design.
The Stealth 16 Mercedes-AMG Motorsport comes in "selenite" gray with joint MSI and Mercedes-AMG branding on the lid (the MSI dragon shield is relegated to the bottom right-hand corner).
The system comes with an Intel Core i9-13900H CPU (which is not overclockable, in the spirit of racing — but allows for a 0.78-inch thick chassis), paired with either an Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 or 4070 laptop GPU. It will sport a 16-inch, 3840 x 2400 (16:10) OLED screen. MSI didn't specify how much RAM and storage will come on board — as that will vary by region — but it supports up to 64GB of DDR5-5200 and has two M.2 NVMe PCIe Gen 4 SSD ports.
