Here’s 5 ways that the new MSI Delta 15 AMD Advantage Edition laptop takes performance to the next level

Ask a gamer what the best gaming laptop is and they’d typically pick one with the most powerful components that money can buy but that’s like picking a sports car with a monster truck engine bolted on and the gas tank of an 18 wheeler truck. It looks nice on paper but falls often short of the ideal.

To ensure high performance gaming, every component of a laptop needs to work in synergy, becoming parts of a greater whole. While a host of gaming laptops festoon the market, subtle but important factors are overlooked like the overall design, thermal performance and a host of other minutiae that often make them fall short in one way or another. 

In pursuit of greater gaming performance, MSI is introducing their new MSI Delta 15 AMD Advantage Edition gaming laptop that combines the latest AMD Ryzen 5000 series processors and Radeon RX 6000M series graphics cards, tuning both to perfection while adding in innovative AMD Smart technologies to take gaming performance to the next level.

What is the MSI Delta 15 AMD Advantage Edition

The latest generation gaming laptop from MSI, the MSI Delta 15 AMD Advantage Edition is intended to make your gaming experience soar in every way. To save weight and ensure exceptional durability, the MSI Delta 15 AMD Advantage Edition is made with a full aluminium chassis that has been sandblasted using a proprietary process to resist smudges while offering premium tactility. 

Weighing just 1.9kg while featuring powerful specifications that can tackle the latest games by using both an AMD Ryzen 5000 series CPU and AMD Radeon RX 6000 series GPU, the MSI Delta 15 AMD Advantage Edition is amazingly slim too for a full-fledged gaming laptop at just 19mm thin. That’s just one facet of why it’s one of the most powerful gaming laptops  that money can currently buy as it has earned the prestigious AMD Advantage badge.

At Computex 2021, AMD revealed a new guiding framework  to ensure a superior gaming experience for laptops called AMD Advantage that consists of a series of stringent requirements across almost every aspect of a laptop’s design and specifications.

These framework guidelines encompass what displays ought to be used, the kind of storage solutions required all the way down to what kind of thermal cooling solutions should be integrated to achieve AMD Advantage certification.

Among the requirements listed for an AMD Advantage certified laptop is the ability to sustain 100FPS in heavy gaming, feature a 144Hz or faster refresh rate on the display with 300 nits brightness or higher, fast boot-ups with NVMe storage and at least 10 hours or more of video playback time, features that the new MSI Delta 15 AMD Advantage Edition meet to offer a fantastic gaming experience in every way.

Here’s 5 ways that the new MSI Delta 15 AMD Advantage Edition can supercharge your gaming and give you a true advantage.

#1 Powerful AMD CPU meets supercharged AMD graphics

In order to meet the demanding standards required of AMD Advantage, the MSI Delta 15 AMD Advantage Edition is equipped with the latest generation AMD Ryzen 9 5900H processor paired with an AMD Radeon RX6700M graphics card with 10GB GDDR6 VRAM. 

The inclusion of the latest AMD Ryzen 9 5900H processor offers significant performance gains with 15% higher multi-core performance and 16% higher single-core performance compared to its last generation predecessor. 

The MSI Delta 15 AMD Advantage Edition also integrates fast DDR4 RAM and a generous 1TB SSD with swift read and write speeds. Combined, this allows it to tackle the most demanding games today without breaking a sweat but where the MSI Delta 15 AMD Advantage Edition is the inclusion of a unique feature. Enter AMD Smart Shift.

#2 The power of AMD SmartShift to enhance performance 

To maximise performance, the MSI Delta 15 AMD Advantage Edition uses AMD SmartShift that is a unique hardware and software solution that is capable of dynamically shifting and allocating power on the fly in order to enhance performance during demanding tasks like gaming, video editing and content creation so important stuff can get done faster. 

Using AMD SmartShift, the MSI Delta 15 AMD Advantage Edition is able to offer a 10% performance increase, allowing for that extra edge to overcome the competition and get the job done. Best of all, AMD SmartShift is as easy to use as it gets – it’s fully automated and is intelligent enough to get started when you need it the most.

#3 Sharper, crisper visuals with AMD Radeon Image Sharpening (RIS)

One of the challenges encountered by gamers in the pursuit of better visuals is the eternal tradeoff between smoother frame rates or higher quality performance in games. Typically, if you want higher frame rates, you’ll need to reduce performance and vice versa. 

In order to deliver both better frame rates without compromising performance, the new AMD Radeon Image Sharpening (RIS) algorithm uses an innovative contrast adaptive sharpening algorithm that is capable of achieving crisper images without a significant performance impact on any game. The end result – smoother, better gaming experiences on the MSI Delta 15 AMD Advantage Edition that make every game an intense, immersive experience from start to finish.

 

#4 MSI Center Dual Optimisation for One-Click Performance Enhancement

One of the most unique features available on all MSI notebooks is the addition of MSI Center, a one-stop AI-enhanced application that is able to manage critical notebooks settings without having to root about in the menus.

By leveraging Microsoft Azure AI, MSI Center is able to dynamically configure and customise settings based on user preferences. By enabling Gaming Mode, the  MSI Delta 15 AMD Advantage Edition is able to optimise hardware settings to ensure a superior gaming experience.

By enabling Smart Priority mode in MSI Center, users can enjoy AI-based optimisation for commonly used applications including content creation software for faster performance and prioritised system resources. The best part? All it needs is just one click to change the way you work and game for the better.

#5 Staying chill with Cooler Boost 5 technology for sustained gaming performance

Much like a high performance sports car, the MSI Delta 15 AMD Advantage Edition features a sophisticated cooling system that ensures that its CPU and GPU are capable of delivering their ultimate potential in gaming performance while remaining at optimum operational temperatures. Dubbed the MSI Cooler Boost 5 system, the new dedicated thermal solution for the MSI Delta 15 AMD Advantage Edition is among the most sophisticated ever made. 

The dual fans each feature an almost paper thin 0.2mm fan thickness to integrate 53 fan blades for superior air dispersion while the 6 integrated heat pipes between the Ryzen CPU and Radeon GPU have been redesigned to be 33% thinner. Combined, the new Cooler Boost 5 system is able to offer 15% better airflow and 2°C lower core temperatures compared to prior generation designs for smooth, sustained high performance gaming on the MSI Delta 15 AMD Advantage Edition.
