The MSI Raider GE67Hx offers a higher resolution OLED screen, more storage space, and slightly better portability, which is great if you value display quality and storage for media or games. In contrast, the Gigabyte Aorus 5 has an IPS screen with a higher refresh rate, appropriate for fast-paced gaming, but lower resolution and less storage. Both have similar battery capacities and RAM, but the MSI might perform a bit better for engineering and 3D tasks due to a more powerful GPU. The Gigabyte is usually more expensive and the MSI provides additional USB-C ports, which could be handy for connectivity. Give Feedback

Can Buy or Not

Vincent Chang | June 2022
"The Gigabyte Aorus 5 SE4 is a capable mainstream gaming notebook that will run the latest PC games with aplomb. However, it's not your stereotypical flashy gaming PC. Gigabyte has added some interesting tweaks. For example, the webcam placement and its Microsoft Azure AI tool — to automatically switch between power modes — are unusual for this genre. But more importantly, the pricing is fairly competitive and reasonable."

PCMag

Francisco Lahoz | October 2022
"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."
