The MSI Raider GE67Hx is very good for gaming and AI, while the Lenovo IdeaPad 5 Pro is only fair.
The MSI Raider GE67Hx outperforms the Lenovo IdeaPad 5 Pro for gaming and 3D applications owing to its more powerful Nvidia RTX 3070 Ti graphics card compared to the RTX 3050 in the Lenovo, and a higher screen refresh rate of 240Hz, which is double the 120Hz of the Lenovo, providing smoother visuals in fast-paced games. The MSI's OLED display also offers better screen quality with a higher contrast ratio, complementing its superior GPU and refresh rate for a more immersive gaming experience.

The MSI Raider GE67Hx has a better screen than the Lenovo IdeaPad 5 Pro for general use, gaming and AI, engineering and design, content creation, and software development.
The Lenovo IdeaPad 5 Pro offers a balance of resolution and brightness that suits everyday tasks and detailed engineering work, but its refresh rate is lower, making it less ideal for the high frame rates desired in gaming and 3D applications. The MSI Raider GE67Hx, with its higher resolution and brightness, provides sharp and vivid images necessary for general use and professional design tasks, and its wide color gamuts ensure accurate color representation. However, despite its advanced specs, the refresh rate is not optimized for the fast-paced visuals critical in gaming and 3D environments.

Florian Glaser | September 2022
"The Lenovo IdeaPad 5 Pro turns out a successful all-rounder that, aside from 3D applications, always strikes a good or very good figure. This begins with the elegant metal case that isn't particularly light but fairly robust, giving a high-quality impression. The input devices are also better than those of many competitors. Both the keyboard and the touchpad are attractive and comfortable. In addition, the performance of the Ryzen 5 6600HS is easily able to keep up with the Intel competitors."

"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."
