MSI first showcased its range of new prebuilt gaming desktop towers earlier this year, and now the entire range is available for purchase. The company’s flagship offering, the Vision Elite, packs top-of-the-line specs including Intel’s latest 14th-gen Core i9 desktop processor and an Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090.

The PC uses the recently released MEG Maestro 700L PZ cabinet, which is the star of the show. It features a unibody aluminum construction and a one-piece, 270-degree tempered glass that offers a panoramic view of the components inside.

MSI isn’t the only company to use this type of curved glass in a PC case, but it’s definitely the first prebuilt PC to be sold with the premium look. It’s pretty gorgeous if you ask me.

Cooling the Core i9-14900KF is a 360mm liquid AIO cooler, and the system comes with 64GB (32GBx2) of 5600MHz DDR5 memory, a 2TB M.2 NVMe SSD, an MSI Z790 motherboard, and a 1000-watt power supply unit. There’s 2.5 gigabit Ethernet, Intel Wi-Fi 7, and Bluetooth 5.4 for connectivity.

Essentially, the system should be able to handle all the latest AAA gaming titles at 4K resolution without breaking a sweat. MSI is selling only one configuration of this beast and it’s priced at $4,300.

Why MSI’s leaked gaming handheld might crush its competitors

That didn't take long. Less than 24 hours after the initial mysterious teaser, MSI's first gaming handheld got leaked in its entirety ahead of its official launch during CES 2024. The handheld, which is set to compete against the likes of the Steam Deck and the Asus ROG Ally, is going to differ from many of its rivals. And it all comes down to the Intel Meteor Lake chip found inside.

Images of the new handheld appeared alongside Geekbench benchmarks earlier today. Dubbed MSI Claw, the portable gaming PC houses the Core Ultra 7 155H chip that comes with a total of 16 cores and 22 threads. That's a major boost over the AMD Ryzen Z1 Extreme found in handhelds like the Lenovo Legion Go and the Asus ROG Ally. In Intel's case, the cores are split due to the hybrid architecture of the chip, so we're really getting six performance cores, eight efficient cores, and two new low-power cores.
