MSI Vector GP Series
MSI said that the name “Vector” spurred from the series’ new perspective on gaming, engineering and scientific computing. It comes with up to a 12th Gen Intel Core i9 processor, up to 64GB of RAM (two slots, DDR5-3200) and up to an Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080 GPU with 8GB of VRAM.

Both are packed with three 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A ports and one USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C port (DisplayPort 1.4). There’s also an HDMI port, a mini DisplayPort and an Ethernet port. The Vector GP Series feartures a SteelSeries per-key, RGB gaming keyboard. Conenctivity-wise, it comes with Intel Killer Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.2.
