MSI has long been known for their gaming laptops, but the WS63 is the company’s first foray into workstation-grade laptops. Bundled with NVIDIA Quadro graphics cards and plenty of RAM and storage, these new beasts aim to help professionals who handle video editing, CAD, 3D modelling and other GPU-intensive applications.
For these kinds of applications, a traditional tower workstation is the norm, but for designers who are often on the move or hot desking, a laptop with workstation-grade performance is a dream come true. But can the MSI WS63 really hold its weight when it comes to handling these demanding programs?
Price and availability
The MSI WS63 8SK Workstation Laptop is priced at AED 10,799. If that’s a bit beyond your price range, you can opt for the WE series starting from AED 7,699, which bundles an entry-level Quadro P2000 graphics card. The pricing is about right, with a similar-spec model such as the HP ZBook x2 coming in at around AED 7,680.
The MSI workstation model lineup isn’t available in stores directly, just because it’s a highly customizable product. If you’re interested in picking one up, you’ll have to contact MSI directly to arrange for your configuration which will be priced accordingly.
