The MSI Creator M14 A13VF-210FR faces the competition

The MSI Creator M14 A13VF-210FR is currently displayed in promotion at Boulanger and offers a configuration/price ratio attractive for its category where it is one of the cheapest to provide such a high-performance graphics card with such a recent processor, such a high frequency screen with such faithful colors as well as such a large capacity SSD, all in such a compact chassis.

If this MSI Creator M14 A13VF-210FR does not meet all your criteria, you will find in our guide Gaming laptop other configurations to play with a similar budget. For the same budget, choose the model with the most powerful graphics card, it will have the greatest impact on performance.

Chassis, connections, screen of the MSI Creator M14 A13VF-210FR

Cooled by Cooler Boost technology, this versatile multimedia laptop, robust due to its compliance with the American military resistance standard MIL-STD-810H, adopts a relatively discreet gamer look with its thin and light compact dark design that can be opened 180° completely flat .

This creative gaming laptop PC integrates good connectivity consisting of 1 USB-C, Bluetooth 5.3 and Wi-Fi 6E ax wireless modules to communicate and connect remotely, a practical HDMI video output to easily connect it to a TV or a monitor for example, Ethernet and audio ports or even 2 USB 3.0 (USB 2.0 compatible) guaranteeing transfers up to 10 times faster than USB 2.0 if USB 3.0 devices are connected.

When you need to better discern the keys, you can simply activate the backlighting of the chiclet keyboard.

The screen will interest gamers thanks to its frequency of 144Hz which provides much better fluidity in games and more generally in everyday life compared to the 60Hz standard.
As a bonus, the Full HD screen offers more faithful than average sRGB colorimetry as well as significant viewing angles, both horizontally and vertically, thanks to its IPS technology.
Due to its 16:10 format, the screen displays more elements in height than the classic 16:9 format.
Its anti-reflective treatment also ensures better visibility in a bright environment (e.g. outdoors) than a shiny panel.

Performance, autonomy of the MSI Creator M14 A13VF-210FR

The MSI Creator M14 A13VF-210FR may appeal to those who wish to acquire a versatile compact multimedia laptop that performs well in gaming and creation.

It delivers very good general performance which will satisfy many users. Because it relies on 16 GB of RAM associated with an Intel Core i5-13420H Raptor Lake processor which houses the Iris Xe graphics solution.

The Core i5-13420H reveals its potential in processor-intensive software using multi-core, such as video editing, photo editing or 3D rendering.
However, if you often carry out demanding multimedia processing, you will benefit from opting instead for a PC equipped with a recent processor with a greater number of efficient cores.

Despite everything, creatives will greatly appreciate that their multimedia processing is accelerated by the dedicated GeForce RTX 4060 graphics card. And this in applications taking advantage of GPU computing power, such as VSDC, Vegas or the Adobe suite.

High-end, the GeForce RTX 4060 ray tracing is a dedicated NVIDIA Ada Lovelace graphics card that will delight gamers. Thanks to this dedicated GPU, we can indeed play recent games.
However, be careful here: due to the compact chassis, the TDP of the GeForce RTX 4060 is limited, which has an impact in games. Clearly, concessions are necessary under the most demanding opuses in 3D resources to obtain good playability.

Depending on the tasks performed, NVIDIA Optimus technology automatically activates/deactivates the GeForce RTX 4060 in real time. It prefers, as much as possible, operation on the Iris autonomy.
Expect approximately 4 hours of battery operation in light use.

Optimus therefore activates the GeForce RTX 4060 to carry out graphics work deemed too heavy for the Iris Xe, typically for gaming. Watching HD photos and videos is of course possible with either one.

The storage is up to this relatively balanced configuration and will satisfy both gamers and creators. Thanks to its high capacity of 1000 GB, the SSD is able to accommodate quantities of games, software and files, including personal creations if desired.

Shock-resistant, silent and energy-efficient, an SSD is very fast. Its contribution is manifested by increased responsiveness/fluidity which translates in particular into rapid launches of games/software as well as processing and starts/stops, or even by the fact that we quickly reach the maps of online games.

Finally, heating and noise are present when this versatile multimedia gaming laptop PC is pushed hard (e.g. games, processing).
It can be coupled with a ventilated support to limit its temperatures (remember to check the dimensions carefully!).
