COMPUTEX TAIPEI 2023 was held regularly for the first time in four years. AKIBA PC Hotline! also publishes booth reports and interviews. Should I bring in an ultra-lightweight notebook that gives priority to less burden when carrying it around, or should I choose a gaming PC that gives priority to work comfort and less stress? I want to. So, this time, I brought the thin and light gaming notebook “Stealth 14 Studio A13V series (Stealth-14Studio-A13VG-1101JP)” to Taiwan and used it for MSI creators. Of course, I would like you to look at whether MSI’s thin gaming notebook has high performance, but also from the perspective of whether people who use PCs on business trips or travel destinations should carry around gaming notebooks. Core i7-13700H with GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop GPU, desktop-class performance 14 inches / 2,560 × 1,600 dots / 240Hz, high-performance liquid crystal panel MSI Stealth 14 Studio A13V (Stealth-14Studio-A13VG-1101JP) Tested this time The model number “Stealth-14Studio-A13VG-1101JP” (hereinfollowing Stealth 14 Studio A13V) equipped with Core i7-13700H + GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop GPU among MSI’s MSI Stealth 14 Studio A13V.

The keyboard is “SteelSeries Per-Key RGB Tenkeyless Japanese Keyboard” with RGB LED backlight. It also has a large touchpad that works well. The intake port is mounted on the back side of the main unit. The AC adapter supports 240W output. The Stealth 14 Studio A13V also uses a high-performance liquid crystal panel, with 14-inch / WQXGA (2,560 x 1,600 dots) / 240Hz, which is in the same class as a gaming monitor. At first glance, it’s bright and the brightness can be set to a high level, so it’s good for creators, as well as for watching games and videos. Also, the resolution is as high as WQXGA (2,560 x 1,600 dots), so people with good eyesight should be able to get a wide working space and it should be quite convenient. Since my eyesight has deteriorated a little, I used it while changing the scaling between 100% and 150% according to the work, but even if I usually use it in full HD equivalent, it is used for creators and file organization. It is convenient to be able to use 2,560 x 1,600 dots for . The LCD panel is 14 inches and the color development is quite good. WQXGA (2,560 x 1,600 dots) / 240Hz compatible, performance like a gaming notebook.

It’s easy to put in a bag and has a decent battery life, so it’s a gaming notebook, so it’s quite heavy, but it’s a size and weight that you can carry around. First, I tried using the Stealth 14 Studio A13V as an office machine. Meetings, taking notes, exchanging e-mails, doing research, etc., are not troublesome for normal work, and the LCD is easy to read, so it’s comfortable. As for the battery life, I have the impression that it will last for regarding half a day to a day for office work, and the maximum driving time of 7 hours (JEITA 2.0) is a guideline. If you don’t use it for games or other uses that require a lot of GPU support, you can use it as a normal business notebook with sufficient performance. Although it is heavier than recent ultralight business notebooks, it weighs just 1.7kg, making it easy to carry around. In the 2000s, many people used to carry around 2kg PCs for mobile use. Ideally, it would be great if it was regarding 1.5kg, but I would like to expect this part from the next-generation model. It is also useful for business purposes such as using it for meetings and taking notes. The magnesium alloy body is 19mm thick and weighs 1.7kg. In addition, the main body size is 14 inches and the thickness is 19 mm, so it is easy to put in a bag. In my case, I always carry a camera, an external SSD, a mobile battery, etc., so the size and weight that can be put in a complete bag are important points. Many gaming notebooks are thick and difficult to carry, but the Stealth 14 Studio A13V has a size that is easy to carry. The 14-inch size makes it easy to put in a bag, and it was easy to bring to the COMPUTEX venue. The advantage of the thin and light model is that it is easy to carry even with the AC adapter included, as it is small enough to fit in a bag including a camera, an external SSD, and a mobile battery. Photo processing and video editing are fast with large capacity memory and GeForce! Stealth 14 Studio A13V, which allows you to do creative work even outside In the case of large-scale event coverage, the captured images can be checked on the spot on the PC, and in some cases processed. Photos are opened in units of dozens, so the better the CPU/GPU/memory performance, the better. Memory usage when 50 photos are opened in Photoshop is 18.7GB. You can also work while launching another application. The processing of Photoshop’s neutral filter using GPU is also crisp. I tried opening regarding 50 photos in Photoshop, but the memory usage of the entire PC was 18.7 GB. The Stealth 14 Studio A13V is equipped with 64GB of memory, so there is plenty of room to open a large number of photos at once. You can also use it while running another creator application. Photoshop has a neutral filter function that can apply useful filters such as super-resolution and depth blur, as well as correcting human skin. This function actively utilizes the GPU, so it can be quite heavy when used on a slightly older PC or a PC with lower CPU/GPU performance, but the Stealth 14 Studio A13V handles it fairly quickly. It’s quite comfortable to be able to process it quickly when it needs to be processed immediately at the interview site, and it’s really helpful because it makes it easier to retake the process because the waiting time is short. High performance that allows you to shoot videos at the event venue and edit them on the spot. The Stealth 14 Studio A13V has pretty high specs, so you can easily edit/encode videos as well as photo processing. I used Premiere Pro to edit a 10-minute video using 4K resolution material shot at the venue, but since the CPU/memory/GPU are both high-performance, there was no scene that felt heavy during editing. It was comfortable and editable. When operating from a position close to the screen, characters can be seen even at 100% scaling, so I felt more comfortable using the highest resolution possible when editing videos. Even editing 4K videos with Premiere Pro is comfortable. Since it is equipped with GeForce, it is quite comfortable to use GPU encoding. In the case tested this time, encoding was completed in regarding half the time using the GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop GPU. The time to encode and output this 4K resolution video was regarding 7 minutes when hardware encoding using CUDA and regarding 15 minutes when software encoding using CPU only, so when encoding hardware, GeForce It will benefit greatly from the RTX 4070 Laptop GPU. The Stealth 14 Studio A13V is an NVIDIA Studio notebook PC compliant model and is highly compatible with applications for creators, so it has the advantage of being safe to use. The performance of the 14 core/20 thread CPU + GeForce RTX 40 series is quite comfortable. The Stealth 14 Studio A13V is a bottom intake model, and cooling is important to bring out high performance over a long period of time. We recommend using it in your environment. Of course, the game is also high performance, and the usual game is comfortable even on a business trip! Comfort that can aim for the highest image quality with resolution around WQHD Because it is the 13th generation Core i7 + GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop GPU, the game is quite comfortable! Although the Stealth 14 Studio A13V has an aspect for creators, it’s a decent gaming notebook, so I tried playing games. If you like games, there are times when you want to play games on business trips or while traveling, and recently there are many games that have elements that you can play every day, such as daily missions, so it’s nice to be able to play games comfortably on the go. . Apex Legends Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak Test performance in four games this time. The resolution is set to 2,560 x 1,600 or 2,560 x 1,440, and the quality is increased as much as possible for testing. NVIDIA FrameView is used for frame rate measurement. Apex Legends is regarding 120-160 fps, which is quite comfortable. Since the LCD panel supports 240Hz, I think it’s comfortable to play with the image quality lowered and targeting 240fps. Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak is regarding 120-150fps, which is also pretty comfortable. If you use DLSS3, you can raise the frame rate further, so it can be said that the performance is more than sufficient. Forza Horizon 5Street Fighter 6 Demo Forza Horizon 5 is quite comfortable around 80-110fps. This frame rate is obtained without DLSS3 enabled, so if you want to enjoy smoother images, it is recommended to enable it. Street Fighter 6 Demo (the product version has not yet been released at the time of testing in Taiwan) is below 60fps on the display, but there is no feeling of frame dropouts and GPU performance is not used up, so I have the impression that I can always play at 60fps. The performance of the CPU and GPU is of course, but the comfort of 14 inches / 240 Hz is considerable. Even though it is a thin and light type gaming notebook, I was able to experience the high performance that exceeds the fps value of the game. It’s as comfortable as a high-performance desktop PC. If you’re under 2kg, it’s a versatile PC that can handle both mobile and everyday use. bottom. As long as the power supply can be connected, it will give you a sense of performance with plenty of room for both creators and games. The fact that a 14-inch/1.9mm-thick model has such good performance betrayed the aircraft in a good way. In addition, the 2,560 x 1,600 dots / 240Hz liquid crystal panel installed in this model makes you feel even more comfortable. In addition to demonstrating performance in games, scaling is useful in Windows 11, so if you want to use it roughly from a distance, you can increase the scaling, or if you want a large work space, use dot-by-dot. And it’s easy to use. For those who want to carry the same performance as a desktop gaming PC, the Stealth 14 Studio A13V should be a model that will be a very powerful choice. It also handles heavy processing perfectly, so it seems to be good for people who have a lot of business trips.
