Differences in Performance

The video below demonstrates the FPS difference between i7-10875H and i7-10750H processors.

RAM out of the box: 32GB vs 16GB

In short, the Eluktronics Max-15 has the double RAM, this is important if you are not keen to do the component upgrade yourself.

Both computers are easily upgradable, but only for the people who are a techie.

Upgrading your laptop may void your warranty, please confirm with the manufacturer first.

Since not all of us are comfortable enough to open up our new laptops, having more memory capacity out of the box is always a big advantage.

1TB vs 512GB Storage – Eluktronics Max-15 Wins

✅ For a laptop, Is 512 GB SSD storage enough?

It depends on the usage, OS, and your ability to upgrade.

Your plan to use your new laptop is very important.

If you plan to do spreadsheets, documents, and other office works, then yes, 512 GB is enough.

But if you use for video editing and even gaming, then it will be insufficient for the long term. A lot of games can take ~70GB of your storage space, and that is just one game!

So having more storage is always important, especially if you want to keep your laptop for a long time since modern games nowadays will take a lot of storage space.

For better performance, leave at least 10-20% of your storage free. Full storage can slow down your laptop’s performance.

Most Chromebooks come with very little storage, and it will still work. Why? Because Chrome Operating System mostly uses clouds more than local storage.

For Windows 10, even though your new laptop’s specs sheet says it has 512 GB, the Windows 10 system itself can take up ~60 GB, so you will have ~452 GB left for other usages.

The last deciding factor is your ability to upgrade your new laptop. Some manufacturers do not even give you the ability to do this.

However, both laptops mentioned in this page are upgradable. If you can swab or add the storage yourself then it will be easier and cheaper. I recommend you to get a laptop that has more storage space if you don’t plan to swab your storage drive.

Which one is better?

Eventually, now comes the difficult question, which laptop is better?

Both laptops are great though, but now it comes down to which gaming notebook will you like more.

If you can upgrade, the MSI is a better choice.

However, if you can’t, and you plan to install a lot of games in the future, opt for the Eluktronics.
