The MSI Raider GE67Hx has a better screen than the ASUS Zenbook Pro 15 for general use, gaming and AI, engineering and design, content creation, and software development.
The ASUS Zenbook Pro 15's strong points for general use and engineering are its high-resolution display and wide color coverage, ensuring sharp text and accurate color representation, which are essentials for detailed design work. On the other hand, the MSI Raider GE67Hx offers similar benefits with a display that boasts both excellent resolution and broad color gamuts, hence providing an immersive experience for precision tasks and creative workflows. However, both fall short for gaming and 3D tasks due to their lower refresh rates, which can hinder the smooth visuals critical for fast-paced action and rendering-intensive applications.

How the ASUS Zenbook Pro 15 and the MSI Raider GE67Hx compare to other laptops
"The ASUS Zenbook Pro 15 offers a strong CPU, chassis, and display. One of the most popular 15.6-inch prosumer or multimedia laptops out there is the Dell XPS 15. Thus, comparisons between it and the Asus Zenbook Pro 15 are inevitable. Asus has a couple of tricks up its sleeve that XPS users are still missing out on including 1080p OLED and an AMD Ryzen CPU which help separate the Zenbook Pro 15 from the XPS 15. It also integrates a numpad and a few more port options albeit at the cost of a larger chassis size."
"If you've wanted to dip your toes into PC gaming but can't let go of your console roots, the MSI Raider GE67 HX stakes out an attractive middle ground between the speed and versatility of PC gaming and the comfort and ease of a console. If you can overlook its noisy fans and chintzy touchpad, the Raider provides a powerhouse entertainment experience with an OLED screen that tops most household TVs. It's not cheap, but this gaming machine is more than the sum of its parts."
