The MSI Vector GP76 is very good for gaming and AI, while the Samsung Galaxy Book3 360 is only fair.
The MSI Vector GP76 excels in gaming and 3D applications due to its powerful Nvidia RTX 3070 Ti graphics card and a high screen refresh rate of 360 Hz, which contributes to smoother visuals and better responsiveness in fast-paced games. On the other hand, the Samsung Galaxy Book3 360 has a modest integrated Intel Iris Xe GPU and a standard refresh rate of 60 Hz, making it less suited for intensive gaming but still capable of handling less demanding games and general use.

The MSI Vector GP76 has a better screen than the Samsung Galaxy Book3 360 for gaming and AI, and content creation, while the Samsung Galaxy Book3 360 has a better screen for general use, and engineering and design.
For general use, the Samsung Galaxy Book3 360 stands out due to its high-resolution display coupled with impressive brightness and a panel type that offers vivid colors and wide viewing angles, making everyday tasks and media consumption a delightful experience. When it comes to engineering and design where color accuracy is crucial, this laptop's adherence to professional color gamuts means that designers can trust the colors they see on their screen for their projects. However, for gaming and 3D applications, both laptops fall short due to their lower refresh rates which can limit the smoothness and responsiveness critical for an immersive gaming experience or fluid 3D modeling.

"The MSI Vector GP76 12UGS is a gaming laptop on speed. The advantages are clear: The Vector GP76 is a real gamer with its 360 Hz display and super-fast response times. In addition, the Core i7-12700H has double the power of the CPU in its predecessor and another highlight is the Nvidia RTX 3070 Ti with a real power consumption of 150 watts. This places the device in the top range of our database. The Vector can also operate rather quietly, offers a full sound range, improved battery runtimes, a key-configurable RGB keyboard, a very stable chassis and good upgrade options. Moreover, the display produces a nice, rich and clear picture."

Adam Speight | July 2023
"The Samsung Galaxy Book 3 360 isn’t a laptop that the Korean manufacturer has shouted from the rooftops about, and it seems to have gotten little attention from anywhere. But, it is absolutely a laptop worth paying attention to. Compared to higher-priced devices, like the Dell XPS 13 (2022) and Asus Zenbook S 13 OLED (2023), it manages to offer a similar day-to-day experience despite the price difference. It’s really hard to justify the extra cash unless a boosted display is a requirement of yours."
