What's Up for Grabs. The MSI Vector 16 HX AI (Model A2XWIG)
This is not your run-of-the-mill laptop; the Vector 16 HX AI is a monster of a computer, from the moment it was launched at CES 2025. Here's a sneak peek at its drool-worthy specs:
- Processor: An Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX (Arrow Lake) CPU – plenty of oomph for demanding games and applications.
- Graphics: A GeForce RTX 5080 GPU with a whopping 16GB of VRAM. Get ready for stunning graphics.
- Memory: A whopping up to 96GB of DDR5-6400 RAM support.
- Storage: Flexible storage with a single PCIe Gen 4 and Gen 5 NVMe SSD slot.
- Battery: A 90Wh battery for gaming on the go.
The display choices on this model are also intriguing, ranging from QHD+ 240Hz IPS screens to UHD+ 120Hz mini-LED, and FHD+ 144Hz IPS. It's not mentioned which specific display arrangement will come with the giveaway prize, but any one of them would be awesome.
Connectivity-wise, you’re looking at two Thunderbolt 5.0 ports, two USB 3.2 Type-A ports, an HDMI 2.1 port, an RJ45 Ethernet jack, and a 3.5mm combo audio jack. Of course, Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4 are also on board.
Bonus Goodies.
Previously, MSI has advertised an almost identical Vector 16 HX AI laptop that was bundled with a free copy of Doom: The Dark Ages, a Logitech G502 mouse, and two other video games. While it's not clear if these exact additions will be included with the giveaway laptops, there is one confirmed bonus: winners will still get a one-month subscription to PC Game Pass. That gets you into Doom: The Dark Ages (and a gigantic library of other titles) right away.
So what's holding you back. Get over to the giveaway page and start accumulating those entries. Good luck.
