MSI Alpha 15 (Late 2020) Review

 

Affordable price ; Fluid 1080p gaming performance ; Powerful eight-core AMD Ryzen CPU ; Per-key RGB keyboard lighting and AMD FreeSync Premium screen ; Long battery life

Noticeable fan noise ; Mostly plastic construction ; No built-in biometrics

The second generation of MSI's all-AMD Alpha 15 gaming laptop delivers much better performance and is still attractively priced.

MSI Alpha 15

 

MSI's all-AMD Alpha 15 gaming laptop combines a Ryzen 7 processor and Radeon RX 5500M graphics for a tempting, affordable alternative in a market dominated by Intel and Nvidia. It brims with high-end features, though it could use quieter cooling fans.

Good-looking design. AMD Radeon RX 5500M GPU is faster than Nvidia GeForce GTX 1650 in our tests. Includes per-key RGB configurable keyboard and AMD FreeSync display.

Middling CPU performance. Overactive, noisy fans.

This all-AMD gaming machine will keep your gaming budget in check

Great display ; Decent AMD power ; Solid plastic build ; Loaded with ports ; No heating issues

MSI Alpha 15 Gaming Laptop Review: All AMD, All the Time

 

The MSI Alpha 15 has a CPU and GPU from AMD, but performance is middling.

Plenty of ports ; Bright display ; Comfortable keyboard

Middling performance ; Poor speakers ; SSD is hard to upgrade

The MSI Alpha 15 features AMD’s 7nm technology, but the performance is middling. It makes up for that with a bright display and a tactile keyboard.
