MSI partners with Mercedes-AMG Motorsport for a 'luxury' laptop experience

MSI and Mercedez-AMG Motorspot have partnered together to create the MSI Stealth 16 Mercedes-AMG Motorsport edition gaming laptop, promising a seriously lux gaming laptop for PC gamers and motorsport fans alike.

The new laptop, which was unveiled at Computex 2023 along with a host of other MSI laptops, is the first laptop in a new partnership between the two brands that they hope will continue in the future.

"Mercedes-AMG Motorsport has established a reputation for developing high-performance race cars, while MSI is also renowned for producing cutting-edge hardware that delivers exceptional performance to gamers," Msi says. "Whether on the track or in the game, both drivers and gamers seek out the highest level of performance to achieve their goals and set new records."

The new laptop will feature the latest Intel 13th-generation Core i9-13900H processor, either an Nvidia RTX 4070 or RTX 4060 GPU, up to 64GB DDR5 memory, as well as a 4K OLED display with 100% DCI-P3 coverage, magnesium-aluminum alloy chassis, and other aesthetic features of that integrates both brands into a co-branded product.

The laptop will be incredibly thin and light, coming in at just 19.95mm and 1.99kg, which is really a feat considering that they will also pack in a 99WHr battery to make sure that you can actually take this laptop with you on the go and not run out of juice in like 5 minutes.

More MSI-Mercedes-AMG Motorsport products to come

While this laptop is certainly one that motorsport fans will dig, MSI says that this is the first product of what it hopes will be a long-term partnership.

"MSI and Mercedes-AMG Motorsport recently announced their long-term partnership and introduced their first collaborative product to motorsport fans and PC gamers around the world: the Stealth 16 Mercedes-AMG Motorsport laptop," the company said. "They have also promised that there will be more collaborative products in the future, and both logos will be visible both on the race track and in tech stores."

The price for the MSI Stealth 16 Mercedes-AMG Motorsport edition hasn't been announced yet, but I expect that it will be a fairly pricey item, going off the specs. Once we get a release date for it as well, hopefully we'll get some clarity on pricing and if we're lucky it won't be priced too high to put it out of reach of most motorsport fans.

TechRadar's Year in Review: AI revolution, smartphone evolution, and visions of the future

If I had to sum up 2023 in one word it would be AI. Okay, technically that’s two initials, but let’s not quibble – because there’s no doubt that it provided the year in tech with its main story arc. Artificial intelligence was everywhere this year, as every company in the world gawped at the massive impact of ChatGPT, and decided they wanted to jump aboard that bandwagon. You could barely move for new chatbots, new image generators, and new AI-enhanced features in every device released in 2023. And there’s no sign of that changing in 2024; in fact, we expect it to be an even bigger deal. Elsewhere, phones and laptops did much the same as they had the previous year – well, except where they had new AI-enhanced features – so it was in the virtual reality space where bigger changes were afoot. If the Meta Quest 3 was impressive then the Apple Vision Pro looks to be genuinely game-changing, and we can’t wait to see what impact it has in the next 12 months. Of course we also saw plenty ...

Microsoft and Sony enter "binding agreement" to keep Call of Duty on PlayStation

Microsoft has announced that it has reached a "binding agreement" with Sony, pledging to keep Call of Duty on PlayStation following the acquisition of Activision Blizzard.  With Microsoft having won its anti-trust case with the US Federal Trade Commission , its planned acquisition of Call of Duty developers Activision Blizzard has taken a big step closer to becoming a reality. In order to alleviate the concerns of monopoly-building that got Microsoft in legal hot water to begin with, the head of Xbox, Phil Spencer, announced yesterday via Tweet that it has entered into an "agreement to keep Call of Duty on PlayStation."  This agreement will no doubt come as a relief to fans concerned that Microsoft's acquisition plans might result in Call of Duty becoming an Xbox exclusive, following in the footsteps of future Bethesda releases. Since Microsoft's acquisition of Bethesda caused the studio to break its tradition of offering titles cross-platform for upcomi...

This Stardew Valley-like farming sim plays at the bottom of your screen so you work and play at the same time

Stardew Valley and Animal Crossing are among some of the best choices out there if you're looking for a game to get swept up in for hours at a time. But, if you're a fan of management sims and a multitasker as well, this upcoming farming sim will likely pique your interest.  Developed by Mister Morris Games, Rusty's Retirement is an idle-farming simulation game that runs at the bottom of your gaming monitor, allowing you to focus on other tasks like working while you tend to your crops. Set to release in Q1 2024 on Steam , the idle sim puts you in the shoes of a wholesome robot as you grow crops and use them to produce clean and energy-efficient biofuel. Having gathered this "vital robot power source," you'll then need to sell your harvest to the other machine inhabitants of your settlement. This, in turn, will let you reinvest the money into expanding your farm. If you're a terrible procrastinator (like me) this might not sound like your cup of tea...
