There's no real way to get around it – the rollout of Nvidia's latest lineup of flagship graphics cards (the RTX 50 series) has been a bit of a mess from a PR point of view. While the same huge demand has roared up to snap them off virtual and physical store shelves, the feedback about performance has been really mixed.
Experts and consumers alike have pointed out that the performance gains over similar 40 series cards are modest, but the increased power draw can be really quite significant, making for a questionable upgrade option. At a briefing for its newest lineup of high-end laptops last week, though, MSI was keen to emphasise that the 50-series laptop GPUs might just change the story a little.
